I think everyone knows already, but for anyone who doesn't;
After a very long hiatus, a new episode of DMT has been completed and covers how Billy Boy Windows work, as well as how to construct them in a level. Due to things shown in the video, it also goes over how mirrors work and touches on the surface of a couple of other things that may get their own video in the future... might well have to do door or viewscreen abuse next time, but don't know when it will be.




I'm sure there was a "Duke Videos" thread, but I can't find it so assume it died at some point. Guess this fits here anyway.

Well done
Thanks

There has been several uploads of rips of French TV shows about Duke/Build these past few days I figured I would relay,

This one shows a few seconds of beta Hollywood Holocaust gameplay and thus may be the one some might find the most interesting (I find it funny how tripmines were presented as a revolutionary weapon when it later tuned out they flopped pretty hard in terms of practical popularity):



This one isn't so interesting per se but just that it exists, a 'retro' show/segment dedicated to Build in 2007 already and so nearly 20 years ago:

There actually is an interesting thing in the second one, in that they chose to dub the original Blood theme over the footage instead of the crappy boring one in the retail version.
I still suspect the original theme and the older music were written by a different composer, possibly Michael Lewis, rather than being by Daniel Bernstein as in the final. This is only speculative, but the older music was at least made with a different sequencer (Votetra Plus) and is put together quite differently to the final's music.

Seen a few of your videos, this, mirror and the skybox testing.
I was meaning to say earlier but these are really good explanations on the rendering quirks that can be exploited and in general how drawing works.

In 2009, someone posted images to GiantBomb.com of rejected Duke 3D box art. This is old news - and I think everyone here has probably seen this - but the images have been removed from the original source. There's even a Reddit thread asking if anyone can find saved copies of the images anywhere. I had them backed-up, so I figured I'd share them here. Feel free to cross-post this to that Reddit thread.
