Where can I get Duke Nukem 3D?

[Weses]

I used to have it 10 YEARS AGO! But my computers have advanced so much that I lost the CD. How do I download or purchase it in a case? I'm on Vista by the way.

You can buy it from the 3D Realms online store. Link is on the left menu at the top.

To play it with vista you will need Eduke 32.

Eduke 32 doesn't work properly under Vista (sound) I have to use xDuke on Vista.

There's an OpenAL patch that works with EDuke which makes it work, something to do with Vista buggering up DirectSound

I think that "patch" is for creative sound cards, etc. So if you don't have a one you can't use it. Again, I have no idea why Microsoft buggered it up :(

Because they can?

[Steve]

Because they can?

Pretty much.

[Western Shinobi]

Pretty much.

Its not a bad thing too. Remember when DirectSound came out for windows? People hated it when you needed DirectSound and certain games didn't have Software Sound suppot.

You got many options as bargain bins (yes I've seen them in the bins before), amazon and many classic selling stores in japan.

I'm not sure if DosBox is compatible with Vista yet, but if it is then you'll want to use that,it plays all Dos game flawlessly.

duke 3d works fine in dosbox and dosbox works in vista.

However if you want to take advantage of high resolution packs you will need something like
eduke or gduke
