Duke Nukem 3D - DOS Launch fix and downgrade to original Duke Nukem 3D
By ᴏᴠᴇʀᴊᴏʜɴɴʏ
This file fixes the problem that the DOS version of Duke Nukem 3D is not launching when you select the DOS version instead of the Duke32 launcher. Also it downgrades the Atomic edition back to the original Duke Nukem 3D.

How it works
Hi there,

this is a fix for Duke Nukem 3D - DOS launcher which does not start correctly. Also I put the
original GRP file in it so that the "Atomic Edition" will be downgraded to the original
DUKE NUKEM 3D version.

You can download the complete pack at:

The Fixed files have to be extracted into the following folder structure. Please make sure that you use exactly the same folder structure. There will be some files overwritten if you don´t get ask by the program to overwrite some existing files you probably extracted it to the wrong directory.

Here is the correct path:

Duke3d_DOS_fix.zip
╚═════ C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\





When it asks you to overwrite files you are in the correct folder structure. Confirm with yes to overwrite the existing files.

I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who wants to play the version which has basically one less episode in it but ok

Well, since there are people who wanted to play the original release and not the Atomic edition. The problem is. When you buy the Apogee collection you get the "Atomic" and not the original Duke Nukem 3D.

When you bought the Megaton Edition you also get the Atomic Edition but not the original first release - even if it says Duke Nukem 3D (classic)

Why would you want to remove what's essentially just extra content?

:destruction::destruction::destruction:Just updated my guide. Now it also downgrades your Atomic Edition to the original
Duke Nukem 3D version that came out in 1996. :destruction::destruction::destruction:

steam just filters shortened links not the actual download site so try posting that instead
