Is there a convenient way to play Caribbean, DC, Nuclear Winter, and Duke Zone 2 with eDuke32? I have all the HRP packs, so it'd be nice...

Why can't eDuke32 just recognize the GRP's and put them in the 'Games' list? That would make the most sense. :-(

Uh... my two HRPs have easy use batch files, that even patch the maps. It works better than anything else, especially with the options presented to you.

I know this is going to very difficult and confusing for you because it's actually going to involve thinking on your feet and maybe actually reading something but here we go anyway:

1. Go to the forum's main page

http://forums.duke4....dex.php?act=idx

2. Towards the upper right hand corner of the page you'll see this weird word that looks like "search"

3. Click on it and type in a key word. Here let me help you with that, try "Caribbean" (you can click "More Search Options", but lets keep it simple for now.

4. Scroll down through the topic titles until you find one that pertains to what it is you seek and click on it.

5. Read it completely from start to finish

6. If you don't find your answer, then you can post a reply in one of those dozens of topics already covering your exact same question so the forum doesn't get flooded with five of these pointless threads every month.

7. Tah-Dah! Your done. Have a super day!

Just did that, and the only relevant topic I found was mine. :-P

I guess it was too challenging. Here, this is what you wanted handed to you on a platter because it was too difficult to do yourself:

I'm not reading them for you.

Duke Zone 2 HRP just contain 2 or 3 maphacks, so on the 1st level you can't set the Red Card, cause the button is |_ with the wall.

[supergoofy]

DukeZone 2 HRP has only one maphack E3L1

This probably won't happen, because Caribbean and DC use SSI files, and TX hates NW. In addition, when you extract the Caribbean SSIs, the v1.3D one does not have a GRP, while the PlutoPak and v1.5 ones have a VACATION.GRP (or .PRG). The DukeDC SSIs do not have GRPs inside either.

Hendricks266: I have a suggestion.
TerminX: sure
Hendricks266: Since the Sunstorm addons use SSI files, and JonoF made the unpackssi program, could support for SSI files with the -g parameter be added? The source code comes with it.

Then they could even be added to the GRP selection box.
TerminX: kind of seems like a monumental waste of time to add support for an obscure and otherwise unused file format when you can just unpack it and play
Hendricks266: Mmm...
TerminX: and I'm not sure I want to make it any easier for people to play the gigantic diarrhea dump that is nuclear winter
Hendricks266: *disagrees*
NW doesn't use SSIs anyway.
TerminX: oh.
Hendricks266: Simply Silly Software left the raw files on the disc.
DC, Vaca, and Cryptic for Blood use them.
