Duke Nukem Build

My Duke Nukem Build is not working in 3D mode. Screen starts to blink and cursor
acts stangely. I can't undrestand nothing in
3D mode. I thougt that this is because i am
newbie in DN level making but tables made by other people doesn't work too.

This is a common problem.

Solution: make sure Build and all it's files are in the SAME DIRECTORY as DUKE3D.GRP because it contains all the textures for the game. That's why 3D mode isn't working.

I discovered that my build works only in recourse directory. I don't know why.
BUT, the color in 3D mode isn't the same as in Duke Nukem. In 3D mode color is like red or somethin, but if i save it and run in Duke Nukem 3D, the color is gray.
I will but this message up too.

You are probably missing one of the following files:

BSETUP.EXE -> Setup program for Build
BUILD.EXE -> Main Build Executable
BUILDHLP.EXE -> Help File for Build
EDITART.EXE -> Art Editing Program
KEXTRACT.EXE -> This program will let you decompile the .GRP data files
LOOKUP.DAT -> Build Data File
NAMES.H -> Build Data File
PALETTE.DAT -> Build Data File
SEHELP.HLP -> Help File for Build
SETUP.DAT -> Build Data File
STHELP.HLP -> Help File for Build
TABLES.DAT -> Build Data File

Make sure not to leave any of them out and put them in the duke3d directory with build. You could also try extracting your .art files to see if they work. Type:

cd c:\duke3d (or whatever dirve duke3d is on)
kextract duke3d.grp *.art

to extract your art files. I have found that extracting the art files normally fixes some of the little errors (ie: scrambled textures). If that doesn't help then go check the link cyborg gave you.

Also check if all of them are off read-only! Change them to Archive.
