Navigate InfoSuite Introduction README The Basics Advanced FX References Game Secrets Hosted At | Introduction Welcome to The Duke Nukem 3D Informational Suite by Ryan Lennox Version 7.0 - Last Updated: October 12th, 2012 This is my HTML guide pertaining to Duke Nukem 3D map editing. It can serve either as a reference for the experienced user, or as a tutorial for people who are new to the program. I've tried to keep it as informative as possible, while still retaining simplicity for newcomers. Some of the effects described in this guide are not compatible with Duke Nukem v1.3d (nor is the included `TUTORIAL.MAP`). If you don't own Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition, you should probably get yourself a copy. On with it, then. If you consider yourself an expert in the field, you'll probably just want to browse through the information. If you're new and interested in learning how to build levels, start with The Basics.
