Hi guys...

Some days ago a friend told me that 3Drealms had released Duke Nukem 3d source code, and that a port had been done, available through the portage... so I tried to emerge it, getting the grp file error when trying to run it

I searched on google for the grp file, and I found at SourceForge the EvilPandy project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/evilpandy3d/). Now ive got the grp file... where have I to uncompress it??

I`ve tried several places but it doesnt seem to work. Any suggestions?

PD... sorry for my bad english : p!

I'm not sure. Duke3D used to have some pretty dodgy net code (it used the old Commit system which was started from within the SETUP.EXE program and relied on everyone wanting to play be ready at the same time and if one of them left they couldn't rejoin without starting the whole game again. Thank god Parallax put an end to this nonsense back with Descent 1) and unless someones rewritten it I doubt it.
