How to run duke nukem 3d on windows xp

I just installed Duke Nukem 3D like i normaly would if i was running windows I just intalled Duke3D as per normal, and it works fine. I even have all the add-ons working with it. I resist the urge to fornicate about with the settings, and the game boots up just fine. No sound, but that's OK, as the sounds can be distracting.

In fact, I think having NO sounds is even more distracting, as you won't hear monsters growl or you won't here your environment, which does limit your awareness.

I mean, if a monster would come up behind you you wouldn't notice it until you get damaged. Im sorry, but the teleporting liztroops dont have defined destinations.

You have no damn clue where they are. I couldn't get my Windows 98 to have sound one time, so I tried playing Shadow Warrior without sounds Believe me, the game is VERY boring without sound I'm surprised I even got to the second level Last edited by Telee; at PM.

This guy's a whacko not to play as how Duke3d was intended. If you want to listen to your iPod while you game, don't even play the game at all. Urgh, what the hell. Originally Posted by Phayzon.

That would suck if I didnt hear the sound. Originally Posted by Parkar. Originally Posted by Telee. Find More Posts by NetNessie. I always found it strange that Duke 3D worked flawlessly without any ports on my win xp comp. Only use ports for multiplayer. He did? All of them. He used too anyways. You seem to act a lot different here. Thats because Ive changed. I will post in whatever the hell color I want to, and theres not a damn thing you can do about it.

As the source code but not the graphics of the Duke Nukem 3D v1. In addition this, you can also enable the new high resolution graphics by changing the render mode to 32 bit "video settings" under "options" in the game menu.
