Help with Duke 3d forever

If you are talking about the mod that came out recently, it will not work with Megaton Edition's exe. You need to use the included eduke32 and a copy of duke3d.grp (which you can take from Megaton).

When you say you can't get it to work, what do you mean? It wont launch? The screens weird? We need details. For example, for some reason, when I click "play" the game doesn't appear, but if I press the windows key that usually minimizes things, then the duke nukem windows appears and I can just click that.

extract the mod's file somewhere on your pc, go to your steam folder and find Duke nukem 3D megaton edition's folder in steamapps and then common, go to game root then classic, grab the Duke3d.grp file, copy and paste it in the extracted mod folder then run Eduke32.exe, tick the autoload little squarre in the bottom of the window when you are able to click play ( if you don't it won't load the mod ! )

what i meant is that i put the rar file in a file and use eduke 32 but it just starts up the regular game, not the modded 1

[S_KING1998]

You did unzip the rar file right? Just making sure. Be sure to read the readme included with the mod.

[S_KING1998]

how can i unzip the file?

[Zee]

right click the file, and click unzip or unpack. You might need something like 7zip to do so
http://www.7-zip.org/

but seeing how you added to the file, im assuming you have winrar or something like that,so you won't need 7zip if that's the case.

You need to run DNF.bat, not _eduke32.exe

Where is the DNF.BAT file? I can't find it in my Steam Folder.

Oh, thanks. I thought the .bat file was from the original game file.
