Joe's Old Apogee Betas "potentially of historical interest"
#151 Posted 23 November 2013 - 10:01 PM
It might be worth sharing here that in my research I've acquired an early tech demo of the canceled and never-before-seen Duke Nukem 4D: The Search for Duke. It was in development for the PlayStation 2, using Sony's EyeToy peripheral to take pictures of yourself that could be projected onto your player avatar (hence, 4D). 3D Realms planned it in response to the success of Half-Life, with its completely silent protagonist, but taking it one step further in that you, literally, were the main character.

Is it another time traveling plot? Would fit the 4D part if it did...

Yes. The included development notes make it clear that the plan was for the player to join forces with Lo Wang, Caleb, Bombshell, Doomguy, and Tommy, as you travel through time and space to find Duke, having been kidnapped by the CyberCycloid Demon Emperor. I've worked through the game data enough to see varying degrees of implementation of all these characters. The art assets would fit great in a Doom mod.

Radar send me the betas so I can make awesome beta mod with lots of coolies.
I'm interested in those betas too and I want to test them also.
MrFlibble also thought that these folders were empty, but those folders may include something inside them.
What's that "Lame Duke 1995" folder containing anyway?

In what you're standing corrected? I see, that "Quake 1993" folder really is containing something on that pic.

lol. Mikko's gonna start downloading everything he can off the piratebay soon enough.
Hm, good reasons, both of them.

You may be serious, those you are responding to are not.

I guess you're right... Perhaps i took that thing too seriously.

If I wasn't so busy right now I could enjoy the pure WTF of this thread much, much more.
Can you keep the fun up a few more hours, please?
Thanks.

Excuse me, leilei, but i'm interested in those betas a lot too, since i heard you saying, that jet_nick has pm'ed you about them.
It also would be very cool to try them out and poke around those folders.

Both of the betas gave me an error message: "Error - Constructor CD must be in drive".
What does that mean?
