jfduke3d

[Dennis Veatch]

This has been added to moonbase. I believe all dependencies have been 
accounted for. If not you know what to do.

Some notes;

The install directory has been changed from duke3d to jfduke3d for consistency 
between module name and ~/.jfduke3d. The later gets created when it is run 
and contains DUKE3D.CFG (keyboard mappings, etc) a logfile and any games you 
might have saved.

This has been tested with Duke3d version 1.3d and Atomic (1.5) grp files. 
Others should work AFAIK.

The high resolution pack is just that. It can be demanding on video. So if you 
have a slower machine/video card drop down the games video settings. You can 
still run it with the HRP so a lrm is not needed.

On occasion you might notice a jerkiness during game play. This has to do with 
caching of maps as you move around. Again the author is aware of this. 

When run it creates a /tmp/tmpsong.mid with the current user id/permissions. 
So if another logs in it won't run. Just delete the file or change group to 
current user. The author is aware of this.

If you discover Episode 4 levels are not accessable, you are running 
duke3d.grp file version 1.3 and you will need the Atomic version to play 
them.

If you try to run the game and it barks about a CON file, it means it cannot 
find the duke3d.grp file, adjust your path.

Lastly. All of this is under GPL or terms very agreeable to endusers save for 
one item. That item is the GRP file which is why you need to copy it from 
YOUR CD. 

So, when your all out of bubblegum, now you have something to do.
