Maybe you haven't noticed it yet, but you are the only one who cannot wait for it.
My decision stands. I will wait for the Duke Hard update. Accept it. It's not like you can do anything about it.
[RELEASE] EDuke32 Addon Compilation "Version 3.13 released on December 6, 2016!"

There are plenty of people who would like to play it, but we Duke fans are patient (and appreciative). But if this Duke Hard update doesn't come out, I hope you eventually release this anyway. Plus I've played Duke Hard, where as some of these with big fixes I'm looking forward to checking out for the first time.
And you could always post the Duke Hard update as a patch, kind of like you did with Daikarin. It's just interesting that it's ready to go, but may not get released if not for one patch. No rush, maybe June? Some summertime Dukin?

So what ?
I prefer to wait for a perfect release, than getting a release that missed something

I will ask again what the status of Duke Hard is right now. The fixes they wanted to apply seemed minor to me. At least I would like someone to get that menu display glitch fixed. I am sure that's something that doesn't take half a year to do...

What would be the harm in having a version without that Duke Hard patch up in the meantime? Lots of things have multiple releases, and there doesn't seem to be an indication that the Duke Hard update is coming soon.
The 20th anniversary of the full version of Duke 3D is April 19th this year right? Just throwing that out there.
And again, I appreciate all the work put into this, I'm just really itching to play a lot of these mods with your fixes.

Well, April 19 sounds like a good date. However, I will try to get at least that menu fix for Duke hard until then. Can't be that hard to change a few lines of code.

Find the readme file for upcoming v2.0 release in the attachment. It is rather unlikely that anything will still change there.
Most recently, I have updated FM3X to incorporate Fernando's latest version he released on February 14, 2016. This way, my delay of the compilation release wasn't in vain after all.
I have notified Daedolon about Duke Hard and hope that he will at least provide me with a fix for the menu display glitch before the deadline on April 19.

That will not be part of the readme any more. It bloated the file too much, and it's pretty huge already. For that, I have a different text file now, only containing hints.

OK, folks, you have waited long enough, I guess!
At long last, I release version 2.0 of the addon compilation now for the 20th anniversary of the Duke3D retail release.
Unfortunately, the guys from Duke Hard didn't report back in time, but at some later time, the menu glitch will surely be fixed. I wasn't able to test all addons with more recent EDuke32 snapshots, but everything worked fine half a year ago, and if it doesn't do any more, it must be due to some changes made to the code in the meantime and needs to be addressed by the coding team.
Enjoy the new release. A lot of effort went into it. Don't forget to completely delete your previous "addons" folder if you had installed version 1.0 before and you want to upgrade now.

I might be a bit too late for further improvements for this great project, but I guess feedbacks are always welcome.
1. Pipeline was the author of 7 maps, 4 SP and 3 DM. His 4 SP maps were part of an unfinished episode called "The Day After" and has the numbers: 1. Suburbia, 3. Doomcity, 6. Hell Station, 7. Mothership in the textfiles. I think the two city maps - despite the missing number 2 - seem to be continuitations as Sub. ends in an elevator and DC. starts in the same elevator, just ruined. Hell St. and Mother are definate fits together as one end in a rocketship and the other start in there. Of course the episode has a loose end between Doomcity and Hell St, but it could be still playable I guess. I think these 4+3 levels deserve their own spot in the addon, and not scattered (Hell St and Mother are in the space pack in the wrong order, DC in the city pack, and Sub. is nowhere to be found).
2. Mikko once created a level for Chimera called Hidden Zone (http://msdn.duke4.net/mymaps.php). That wasn't just a fanwork to the original, but a merger by two unfinished levels by George W. Bernard. I'm not sure but this thing should be included in the Chimera pack, despite technically not being part of it. Mikko made it a standalone release, so some modifications might be made into it.
3. I haven't seen Zyvkov Eddy's Dream trilogy. Was that intentional?

1) I will think about extracting those maps and putting them into a seperate pack with correct order. TBH I wasn't aware that these maps have some kind of coherence. I could imagine putting the first two city maps together as ep.1 and the other two space maps as ep.2 (also fitting the general theme of the episode slot plus considering the gap between DoomCity and Hell Station). Usually I don't mind much about DM levels, but I guess in a pack like this it would make sense. Which DM maps did Pipeline make, btw? In the repositories, only his SP maps are listed as far as I can see.
2) I know this and had contacted Mikko about it some time ago. He explicitly advised me NOT to include that map with Chimera because it's absolutely not playable with Chimera assets. Besides that, it's far from finished, so it's better if it's not integrated.
3) May be considered for a future update. Will talk to Eddy to get his permission if I don't encounter any other problem preventing me from including it.

Well, these are:
http://dnr.duke4.net/maps/Scraper.html
http://dnr.duke4.net/maps/Playboy.html
http://dnr.duke4.net/maps/XTC.html
Scraper could be a good SP map with some modifications, but that would mean it's losing its original integrity.
#234 Posted 28 April 2016 - 09:13 AM
Also if you decide to bring Doomcity out of the city episode, I recommend Slums of LA to replace it. The map was made by Olivier Boucher, who said it will be a part of his upcoming (but ultimately dead) TC called Duke Nukem Strikes Again along with his other map called Traffic Jam...

hey guys,
is there a possibility to provide another type of archive for the add-on completion? I'm on OS X and therefore can't do anything with the *.exe file, that contains the compilation :/ i would really like to check out the awesome thing

I can add a repacked version in zip format later today if you really need it badly. Anyway, as Hendricks already wrote, this exe was compiled with 7Zip and can be opened like a .7z archive.

I'm not sure where to post this, so I'm putting it here.
I downloaded the add-on pack the other day for a couple of the add-ons that I was interested in and pulled them out of the pack to play them separately via bat files. One of them, Plug n Pray, worked fine, but the other, It's Zero Hour gave me an error and wouldn't load. Here is teh log file from that attempt. Any ideas?
