Come Get Some: Just Installed Duke Nukem 3D Again

Well, I've been playing all the other major build games this year: Shadow Warrior, Blood, and Redneck Rampage. So, I suddenly got the urge to put Duke Nukem 3D back on. This is the first time ever that I've had all of the big four on my hard drive. I've got so many old games on my PC it just isn't funny. They take up a lot of space, especially when you've got source ports and HRPs for most of them.

I had to get out one of my backup DVDs and get all of my outdated DN3D stuff out. I download the latest EDuke32 (with Polymer) and Duke Plus, as well as some other stuff, but the latest HRP pack and addons is another story.

I've got data to spare, but I can't blow it all on that stuff.

Polymer for EDuke32 Released

I've written about Polymer before on this blog as well as on my page for Duke Nukem 3D over at HP. I got some rare news from Duke4.net that a public build has officially been released now.

If you don't know what polymer is, then you should head over here, where there are a couple of videos as well as a brief explanation. You can also check the sources and resources links below.

I've seen a bit of polymer in pictures and videos, and as far as I know, and part of this I'm quoting, the Polymer renderer is a replacement for Ken Silverman's original Polymost renderer. Ken Silverman is the guy credited with creating the Build engine, which Duke 3D uses. Polymer is usable with EDuke32, which IMO is the best port for Duke 3D around. You can also use so many other things with it like the HRP, Duke Plus, and others.

I haven't played Duke 3D for while now, but I might just do so now.

Note: Not all of the links leading to Duke4.net work. I don't know why. Ask Yatta, the guy who runs the show there.
