Hi i just got this port and tried it out on my geforce 2 video card and im having a problem with the video whenever i enable any of the higher res modes (higher than 8 bit) whenever i have the screen size on full (as opposed to one notch below full with the big status bar) when i look all the way up i get a hall of mirrors effect at the top of the screen...i took a pic of whats happening

now if i make it the bigger status bar the hall of mirrors effect is still there but less noticable and smaller...can someone help me out? Is this my pc's fault...or a bug that still needs to be fixed?
thanks

No, this is not Your PC's fault. It's an OLD known bug. Don't pay attention on it. :wink:

The HOM has absolutely nothing to do with your video drivers. It's a known behavior in Polymost that has not yet been addressed due to its technical complexity. I'm really the only one who can fix it and it's not a high priority right now.
also im trying to find the plutonia pack if you know what i mean
I know what you mean and it really pisses me off. How dare you! I hope nobody is stupid enough to follow through with your illegal request. I suggest you do the right thing and buy Duke Nukem 3D Atomic Edition here:
http://store.yahoo.com/3drealms/games.html 3D Realms is selling the game for only $19.95 now. If you like it then buy it. It's as simple as that.
This would be a perfect place to lock the thread... JonoF?

sheesh settle down...i already own the original duke nukem (got the cd, case and everything) i cant really order stuff online and even if i could why should i buythe game i already have to get the expansion? i dont need the original game just the expansion and i doubt anywhere sells it alone...
people need to chill a bit over thier piracy crusades...especially with someone like me who only pirates games i cant buy (no i cant order online) besides i already legally paid for duke nukem twice (once for the n64 duke and once for duke3d on pc) so chill out

Settle down? Why should he settle down? Ken spent a DAMN good chunk of his life when he was younger working on Build, only to have some stupid kid ask where to pirate a game using it from on his own forums. He has every right to be pissed when some punk won't even spend $20 for his hard work. On top of this, he still puts extended amounts of time into the engine even today(Polymost, anyone?), even though he's under absolutely no obligation to whatsoever. I'm sure the royalties he makes on every copy of Duke are negligible at this point, but it's a matter of principle, not of money.
You simply do not go onto a developer's personal forum asking where to pirate their game. As such, I suggest you fuck off. http://envision7.com/~rich/pics/fuckoff.gif

Well put TX, I bought the original Duke for PC and Playstation and then I couldnt find the expansion in shops either so I bought it online, from some place called Dragon games net or something. Cant memba it was quite a few years ago. None the less I paid like over $35 becuase of the Canadian to New Zealand currancy conversion. But it was worth every cent. So Decay why dont you go get a job and go buy it.

wow some true angerus here...well at first i didnt even know i could still buy it thats why i asked...now that i know where to buy it im sure i will but you guys still need to chill out...i put my own mp3s up to download and you dont hear me bitching about people downloading my hard work which i spent over a year creating

and to the guy preaching about principle.....if you had true love for a creation you make (in any art form...movies, games, music, drawing, ect.) you would be happy in your own creations and whoever gets to see them or experience them...not whether you are making money off them...theres a big difference between selling a product and making a piece of art
if you think someone pirating a game hurts an artists feelings you have a lot to learn about art
true artists in any catagory of art whether it be games or music, is happy with what they achieved...not with how much money that achievement has made
But you can be happy...i already spent over 100$ on the duke nukem series...my conscience is clean...so the rest of you can fuck off
