Duke Nukem 3D alternate .CON files ============================================================================= Title : RUBBERMAID v1.1 CON Files Filename : RUBv11.zip includes game.bak, RUBuser.con, switch.bat and this file. You need both .CON files and the defs.con that came with the game for it to work. Author : Jezreel Email Address : jonhuang@juno.com Misc. Author Info : Am 14, never owned the full version of Duke. Description : Major changes: 1. Rubbermaids are peaceful, placid objects -unless provoked. Experiment! 2. RPGs have been really messed up. Fire one. Now duck and do that. Now hold space and shoot. 3. Bullets are tipped with explosives, shrink charges, and Rubbermaids. Press space and fire to shoot of a 'maid -and lose 20 life. 4. Duke now craps invisable mines! LIGHTLY TAP space while ducking to do so and lose some life. Mines can be detonated by shooting them and can be detected by rats emerging. 5. Many other changes. Additional Credits to : Ben Cantrick (cantrick@rintintin.colorado.edu) for writing a .CON editing FAQ that helped me get started, 3DRealms, ID for starting the whole thing, and my friends for rigorous testing. ============================================================================= To install: 1. Copy all files to your Duke directory. 2. Run switch.BAT. This will swap the backup file with the current GAME.CON The current one will become GAME.BAK. 3. Start Duke. 4. Run switch.BAT again to return to normal. Things to try: 1. Fire the RPG as vertical as you can while ducking. Think stairway to heaven -or grappling hook. 2. Make walls with or without pipebombs. Block off passages. 3. Play Dukematch with mines. Fly around. Think bomber pidgen. 4. Use rubbermaids to get items, shoot around corners, etc. 5. Experiment -but use God mode. Things to avoid: 6. Mass genisis. Too many barrels slow up or crash the game. Be really with da 'maids. 7. Using mines in single player -dey don't detonate 'round monsters, you'll just kill yaself. 8. Killing yourself by deploying too many mines/'maids. The whole point of that is to keep people from abusing this. If you think you can handle it open GAME.CON (mine, not yours) with a text editor and follow these instructions. A. The mines: 1. FIND the word CHUNKY. 2. Near it is the phrase "addphealth -3" change the -3 to 0 B. The 'maids: 1. FIND the word STEW. 2. Near it is the phrase "addphealth -20" change the -20 to 0 3. DONT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE! INCLUDING NUMBER OF SPACES! E-mail me and tell me what you think. ( jonhuang@juno.com ) Feel free to share this around of hack into it but don't cry to me if you mess it up. :)
