Any better ports that this?
Crashes, crashes restting controls, messed of resolutions, and the bigger killer of all of these
terrible mouse input, with a special combination of mouse acceleration and deadzones.

Is there a better port I could be playing this game in?

People say SWP is better, but it's more or less the same to me. And it never saves my saves.

Odd, plays well for me.

Looking into it.... it looks like the original 3D Realms did some weird stuff differently that Duke Nukem, which screws up the ability to making a good port. So it's not the dev's fault of this port.

I wish then somebody had made a total conversion in zdoom like Blood, immitating the behavior instead.

Like this one ? https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=46168 also combining it with nashmove https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=105&t=35761 make it's very similiar to the original and for duke nukem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koVGz7rDea4 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txPI_WtU6VM

Nonsense, it's just a matter of putting in the work. That things are done differently than in Duke 3D shouldn't be considered "weird" as it is a different game.

Yes there is. Use the Raze sourceport. It works for all three Build Engine "holy trinity" games (Duke 3D, Shadow Warrior, and Blood). And every game plays flawlessly and buttery smooth. The reason for this is due to Raze being a Build Engine sourceport powered by GZDoom. You see how buttery smooth classic Doom runs in GZDoom? You see how the graphics look a bit cleaner and the colors are more vivid due to OpenGL rendering used by GZDoom? It's exactly the same with Build games running in Raze. And don't make the mistake that these are poorly-made, janky Build Engine 'look-alikes' merely running in the GZDoom engine. It's not at all. Again, it's just created by code that was originally written for GZDoom. The games look, feel, and play 100% accurate to the original Build Engine versions - albeit they play much smoother of course. They feel completely accurate and authentic.
Give it a try. Seriously. All three games (Duke, SW, and Blood) have never played smoother or looked better in my opinion. It's the optimal way to play these games. And it's as quick and easy to set up as GZDoom.

I believe the most accurate port is NBlood. https://blood-wiki.org/index.php/NBlood :vcdblood:

Don't recommend playing SW in RAZE, raze changes the behavior of the enemies and screwed up the nuke, and in general it has a lot of problems, BuildGDX is the best to play SW.
