i can see only icon on my n800 but the game couldn't open


please help and guide me

Same problem here too. I got the deb installed, the folder created, and the GRP in the right place. When I run the game from my Extras, it tells me its loading then nothing happens. Please assist.

There are two different programs, the commercial duke3d and the shareware (free) duke3dsw. It is permitted to download for free the 'shareware' version of the game.

They also allow to download freely the game data. The game data (sound, graphics and levels) for the Duke games are stored in a ".grp" file.

You can obtain the shareware 'grp' game data here

http://www.gel.ulaval.ca/~klein/duke..._file_only.exe

Download this and run it (in windows) it will extract a file called

DUKE3D.13.Shareware.GRP

Rename this file to

duke3d.grp

Copy this file to a directory called

/media/mmc1/share/duke3dsw

if you do not have this directory, then create this directory.

When you have duke3d.grp file copied, then you must install http://pupnik.de/duke3d_1.5-sw.deb

The easy way to install this is to open the nokia web browser to http://pupnik.de/software.html and click on "Duke Nukem3D sw (ukki)" then select "Open" to install the game.

If your internet tablet has no connection to the internet, then download the duke3d_1.5-sw.deb file to your PC, then copy to the memory card. Then run the 'application manager' program, then select "Application Manager" menu, then "Application->Install from file". Then in left side window select "Removable memory card" and select the directory containing duke3d_1.5-sw.deb. Application manager will then ask you if you are sure you want to install. Select "ok" and then select the menu location for duke3d menu item ("Extras").

Then you can click on the extras->duke3d icon.

You will see a black screen at first. Hit the "enter" button (the middle of the dpad). Then you will see the red duke3d menu.

I will repeat now one time ..

the game directory can be in /media/mmc1/share/duke3dsw

OR

the game directory can be in /media/mmc2/share/duke3dsw

The game will detect the location (mmc1 OR mmc2) automatically. Do not create both mmc1 AND mmc2 directories. Only choose one.

I apologise that this difficult. I would prefer that the game data could be included with the duke3d-1.5-sw.deb file, but It is not permitted for me to share the game data (duke3d.grp) with the maemo game program.

I hope this helps. I will soon create a web-page list for my games that install easily with only a few clicks.



thnx to ArnimS

I appreciate the effort of the post italo, but I have the GRP of the full version, so I didn't install the duke3dsw. I installed the newest updated one from the OP. Can someone else shed some insight on this?

Open xterm and run these two commands (press enter after every line):

ls /media/mmc1/share/duke3d/DUKE3D.GRP
ls /media/mmc2/share/duke3d/DUKE3D.GRP

If both of these commands say something like ls: /media/mmc1/share/duke3d/DUKE3D.GRP: No such file or directory', you have the DUKE3D.GRP in a wrong directory.

If not, try running:

duke3d

and post the messages you see here.

Thank you. That was the final kick in the head I needed to realize I named a folder wrong and fix it. Working now!

New release. Added instructions about controls and where to store the data file. Fixed task switching with the home key. Be sure to click on the icon to return to game. Do not use the home key menu, because it doesn't deliver an event to the game and the game doesn't enable pixel doubling again. If you still do that, just get out of the game again and click on the icon to enable doubling.

The Deb doesn't seem to be hosted anymore Anyone else have a link that works? I was even able to dig out my own Duke Nukem CD (hope its not too scratched to get the data) and now I'm bummed

Oh never mind. Found a like to the current version on his server. Good bookmark to have!

can someone upload duke3d.grp file bacause links don't work

Greetings
