I'll just paste the readme to save time.

Duke Nukem Stranded 0.1

Insight:
Made this little mod idea while I was at work, as the PC at work is not very powerful Ive been limited to software mode. So this works on 8bit Software, 32bit Polymost/Polymer with or without the HRP.

The idea behind this comes from GM_Stranded, anyone who has played Garrys mod will have most likely had a go at it.

Install:
Simply extract DNS.rar to a NEW FOLDER (Name it how you like) that ONLY contains the "DUKE3D.GRP" file and double click "Duke Nukem Stranded.bat"
Click "YES" when it asks about importing the configuration file.

Basic Controls:
Quick Kick: Spawn Menu
Look Up: Exit Spawn Menu
Forward/Backward/Strafe: Controls for moving about the Spawn Menu
Use: Drinking Water, Getting Sprouts from Trees, Making A Selection In The Spawn Menu

Trees and Rocks:
You will need word, stone and other various materials to make objects for living on your new island a more enjoyable and relaxing experience. To harvest most of these materials go up to something you suspect of being usable and kick it with your Might Boot (Weapon 1)
Note: Certain materials won't be of much use until further refined.

Spawn Menu:
Here you can find all the items you need to make on your island, simple select one and providing you have the correct resources it will spawn at your feet. (Further work on this effect is quite needed)

HUH I DIES?!? THIRSTY WTF?:
There are four bars displayed in the top left.

Red:
Health. This is your players Health, when ANY of the other bars displayed below reach zero your health will start to decrease. If this bar reaches zero you will die.
Blue:
Thirst. Living on a hot island makes you very thirsty and you will need plenty of fluid to stay alive. To replenish your thirst bar is very easy, simple wade into any water and press the "USE" key.
Oddly enough you don't seem to have any side effects from drinking salt water. (or do you?)
Green:
Hunger. Not Implemented Yet
White:
Tiredness. Not Implemented Yet

If there is enough interest and I keep moving forward with it then you are more than welcome to DanM,
Many map idea's could come into play with this, as long as they have the basic's needed.

Water: Sector Tag 1
Trees: Sprite Number 10000 and 10001 till more are added.
Rocks: Sprite Number 10003 till more are added

Skyboxs start at slot number 11000, only one exist so far.

Sounds interesting. Downloading now.

Maybe I'm dumb, but I really can't see the "download" button on FileFront page... I have to subscribe ?
Can you please upload the file on MegaUpload or similar ?

[chicken]

Refresh the page, then it shows up.

[Headless_Horseman]

Ok, downloaded and tried it.
I just cannot figure how to harvest the sprouts... Perhaps you've to refinish them from wood ? I tried kicking the palm leaf, but nothing happens. It woul be nice to add sharks in the sea, so you can eat some deliciou shark sushi eheheh. And some random weather changes will make this perfect (you can use the DukePlus code, just in case). Maybe you can insert a pool of water guarded by some feral animal too, so you can drink only if you're skilled enough.
One of the biggest problem is that the "game time" is too fast : you barely have the time to try to accomplish something before dying of thirst.
Apart from this, it's surely an interesting mod, hope you continue on working on this. Perhaps you can include the mod in a bigger one based on a very big island with some secrets to find (I don't follow "Lost", so please don't ask).

You need to press the use button when facing a tree. (States this under the "Controls" in the readme )

This is not a bad idea actually, kill the shark and harvest it's body to gain meat for cooking. (Similar to gaining the meat from an Ant Lion in GM_Stranded.)

Same as above.

Just like GM_Stranded I plan to add a leveling system and resource system, right now you can carry 2147483647 of each resource which is a bit over kill.
Starting at a skill level of say 0 would mean you could only hold 35 resources total meaning that you would need to drop other resources if you were wanting to make something that costs exactly 35 WOOD for example.
Apon gaining a skill level the total holdable would go up by 5 and slowly decrease the speed of Thirst, Hunger, Tiredness while increasing Harvesting speed etc.
Tools will also be introduced to increase the amount you a given and certain tools will only be able to harvest certain resources so making/gaining a tool will be highly needed.

If I based this on Lost at all it would never end.
Did you not like the Easter egg I already included at the start?

EDIT: If anyone is interested and has Garry's Mod, you can play the actual game play mode that I'm getting all the ideas from.

202.6.157.130:27300 - Owning CS:S and having the PHX 3 model pack installed is a must.

[The Commander]

Stay tuned.

[blizzart]

Can you upload the file again? It seems that the file on Filefront has been deleted.

[The Commander]

Heh, I must of been drunk when I posted that "Stay tuned" post.
Oddly though I am still working on this, but it has a new working title and storyline etc.

The file above does not play anything like the current version but Ill fix the link anyway so you can see how crap it is.

Is it possible to spawn duke bikes in a map by modifying Duke Nukem Stranded?

[The Commander]

What the fuck?

[TON]

Forget it TheCommander

[Inspector Lagomorf]

Holy necropost, Batman.

[The Commander]

I had to download this from this thread because I couldn't find it on my HD any more.
I had fun for 5 minutes kicking some trees and making some food to NOM NOM NOM on!

But yes you could spawn a Duke bike if you wanted to go to all the trouble of pasting the CON code and art over. (Not really worth it in the end IMO)
