Take a look at these screenshots





There's exactly something, that looks similar in these two screenshots.

Robert G. Depew did the Duke Nukem II and the Alien Carnage (a.k.a. Halloween Harry) artwork.
I found a blog where you get some nice edition of this artworks:

Looks like they changed the slope and the texture, I don't see anything else? Maybe the ammo amounts.

Is that from some existing level? Seems like something from Ep.2 but I can't be sure right now.

[Micky C]

Yeah you shouldn't just post screenshots like that and not explain where they came from and why they're relevant.

[Mark]

I see differences in the slope, shading, texture alignment and HUD. Whats the point?

[Jimmy]

One of them is just an older shot of the same area. Nothing we haven't seen before either. Who knows with Pekkola?

[MrFlibble]

On a completely unrelated note, I've just been browsing through archived pages of www.shadowwarrior.com and realised that in the screenshots section are some shots that are not featured on the 3D Realms Shadow Warrior pages:

3D Action Gamers' Archive used to put up monthly updates of Shadow Warrior screenshots. The Wayback Machine has preserved part of their file archive, with the following screenshot packs:

sw0396.zip
sw0496.zip
sw0596.zip
sw0696.zip
sw0796.zip
sw0896.zip
sw0996.zip
sw1096.zip
sw1196.zip
sw951115.zip
sw961115.zip
swhires.zip
swshots.zip

Most of that stuff are just copies of screenshots from the update pages at the 3DR website, but some apparently have not been featured elsewhere (I think). There's also a clean version of the official slideshow (no BBS comments or third party FILE_ID.DIZ).

[Edit] As the Wayback Machine currently blocks access to snapshots of the 3D Action Gamers' Archive, I have re-uploaded the previews here.

[Jimmy]

Good eye, Flibble, there were a few shots in there I didn't have.

[MrFlibble]

As a matter of fact, there are similar screenshot packs for Blood:

blud0696.zip
blud0796.zip
blud0896.zip
blud0996.zip
blud1096.zip
blud1196.zip
blud951115.zip

The Blood folder at 3D Action Gamers' Archive also contains a couple of videos too.

[Edit] As the Wayback Machine currently blocks access to the file archive, I've re-uploaded those screenshot packs here.

Those were the official teasers available on Blood.com at some point.

Of course! That screenshot with that area, that i've posted is from "Alpha core" made by "Fernando Márquez". Now, that's the thing i've noticed and that looks similar to one
in that beta screenshot, when i played "Alpha core" map some time ago.

[Jimmy]

Okay??? Almost all of Fernando's maps mimic the style of the original level set.

Fred has been posting some great photos to Facebook today but this one takes most of my interest:



Have we seen the Shadow Warrior boss in a shot like that before?

[Jblade]

No, and I can't say that Duke shot is familiar either. It looks like the battlelord is just standing there without a gun or anything.

[TerminX]

I've seen that before. I wish I had one of those boxes... I've got a couple of the earlier design where it was just Apogee, but none of the 3DR ones.

[Lunick]

The just Apogee ones were blue weren't they?

[Jimmy]

Don't have it in better quality. The SW screenshot is new to me. Although it has elements we've all seen before. I don't think the Lava Golem had anymore frames than that one we always see.

[Fox]

For instance, that's the default pose of the model:

[MrFlibble]

Thought it could be interesting. A YouTube user uploaded records of all self-running demos found in the shareware versions of Duke Nukem 3D:
Duke Nuken 3D Shareware 1.0 - Demo Loop / Attract Mode / Ciclo de Demostración (E1L1, E1L2, E1L3)
Duke Nuken 3D Shareware 1.1 - Demo Loop / Attract Mode / Ciclo de Demostración (E1L2, E1L6, E1L1)
Duke Nuken 3D Shareware 1.3d - Demo Loop / Attract Mode / Ciclo de Demostración (E1L2, E1L6, E1L1)

The same user has recorded demos from other games, but apparently no Duke Nukem 3D registered demos.

[Darkus]

Here's the original demos from Duke Nukem 3D V1.3D registered:



And also from the registered Atomic Edition (V1.5):

[TerminX]

1.4 also had different demos.

Yup, I also found those.

Another user recorded the whole of LameDuke demos as well:

[Darkus]

There is also a demo which can be considered official, but I can't find videos of it.

It's in the downloads section, the filename is cooldemo.zip
http://www.3drealms....ke3d/index.html

The file FILE_ID.DIZ says:
This is a 4 player demo for Duke Nukem 3D
Registered v1.3d. Recorded by 3D Realms on
the last night of development, it's very
silly in places, with 3 Dukes standing on top
of each other, and a Duke can-can dance in
front of a camera!

[MrFlibble]

On a completely unrelated note, it has always annoyed me a bit that Shadow Warrior overuses palette-swapped enemies so much, but then it suddenly occurred to me that maybe this was done on purpose, and the developers were actually making fun of the Palette Swap Ninja trope?

I guess it's this one?

Yes, it's this one! I just checked the demo with my V1.3D registered and it's the same. Thanks for finding it!
