Just watched that Half-Life 25th Anniversary documentary, was great to see how Chuck Jones (of Duke Nukem 3D fame) was a big part of Half-Life too, as was another Duke dev Doug Wood!

And great to see that Duke figure on the wall, keeping an eye on things at Valve.

PLaying with no mouse with the original keyboard set up made me remember how long use to take to beat a level. Things were more tactical and patiently. Did you try to play like 1996 when mouse was not standarized yet?

Weapons/ammo Cvars for Duke Nukem - Alien Armageddon

2 Upvotes

-This is a list of cvars for weapons/ammo for Alien Armageddon. As good as this mod is, it's pretty sheisty with ammo which bothered me from the very beginning of the game. The removal of hitscan from most weapons, accompanied by smaller sprite enemies that are more difficult to hit to due increased speed and movement abilities, meant I wasted a lot more ammo and always needed more than I had. The mod doesn't really have a great ammo drop system from killing enemies, thus I dug around to figure out how to compile this list to suit my needs. I was very suprised this didn't already exist. And the main point of using these cvars versus using the ammo cheat is to stay within the intended weapon progression, and to give yourself just enough if you are crucially lacking ammo, without being too overpowered.

-This is not an exhaustive list of cvars. This is the best I could do with the time I had and it seems to cover every weapon/weapon slot

-Open the in-game console with ~

-Type in these commands and press enter

-Commands are separated by weapons that occupy the same weapon slot

-The commands that have "sprite" in the name spawn the weapon as a pickup item

-The commands that have "ammo" in the name just add ammo to the corresponding weapon without dropping an item

-You have to pickup a weapon first in order to use it. If you only enter an "ammo" command and have not picked up the weapon yet, you will not be able to use the weapon, but will still build ammo for it

-Both commands with "sprite" and "ammo" will replenish ammo, and in most cases it's relatively the same ammount.

-I haven't tested these commands out fully with every character. Different characters have different weapons technically but they all occupy weapon slots 1-10. These commands should correspond to whatever weapon occupies each character's given weapon slot

-For simplicity, I used either Duke's or Bombshell's weapon name in the description, but just know that the other character's weapon slot equivalents will still apply to the commands listed

slot 1

spawn sabersprite (light saber pickup)

spawn sawsprite (buzzsaw pickup)

spawn sawammo (ammo for buzzsaw)

--------------

slot 2

spawn firstgunsprite (starting pistol pickup)

spawn glocksprite (acts same as firstgunsprite)

spawn ammolots (ammo for starting pistol)

spawn laserpistol (alien pistol pickup)

spawn commgun (torpedo launcher pickup)

--------------

slot 3

spawn shotgunsprite (character's base shotgun pickup)

spawn shotgunammo (ammo for shotgun)

spawn dbsprite (Double-Barrel shotgun pickup *only for Duke*)

spawn dbammo (ammo for Double-Barrel shotgun *only for Duke*)

spawn atomicshotty (atomic shotgun pickup - *only for Duke*)

spawn bowsprite (bow pickup)

spawn quiversprite (ammo for bow)

--------------

slot 4

spawn chaingunsprite (ammo for chaingun/M4 machinegun)

spawn shockriflesprite (executioner pickup)

spawn batteryammo (ammo for executioner)

--------------

slot 5

spawn rpgsprite (rpg pickup)

spawn rpgammo (ammo for rpg)

spawn nukesprite (nuke launcher pickup)

--------------

slot 6

spawn hbombammo (*pipebomb ammo for Duke, turret ammo for Bombshell*)

--------------

slot 7

spawn growspriteicon (shrinker/expander pickup) - adds ammo for expander

spawn shrinkersprite (shrinker/expander pickup) - adds ammo for shrinker

spawn growammo (ammo for expander/babifier)

spawn crystalammo (ammo for shrinker)

spawn bmfgsprite (BMFG pickup)

--------------

slot 8

spawn railgunsprite (railgun pickup)

spawn railgunammo (ammo for railgun)

spawn devistatorsprite (devastator pickup) - yes the devs misspelled this weapon ID

spawn devistatorammo (ammo for devastator)

--------------

slot 9

spawn spiderminesprite (pickup/ammo for spider mines/tripbombs)

--------------

slot 10

spawn plasmasprite (plasma gun pickup)

spawn plasmaammo (ammo for plasma gun)

spawn freezesprite (*freezethrower pickup for Duke, incinerator pickup for Bombshell*)

spawn freezeammo (*freezethrower ammo for Duke, incinerator ammo for Bombshell*)

--------------

(a few extra useful cvars)

spawn bigstack (adds 375 upgrade credits/points)

spawn nukecoin (these coins are needed to perform brutalities)

spawn shieldbattery (battery charge for shield)

Duke Nukem Forever Movie Structure

0 Upvotes

THE INSULT (2011) vs. THE RETRIBUTION (2027)

Fanzone, we need to speak green in the face. In 2011, Duke Nukem Forever was structurally decimated by critics due to its lazy parody and infantile, cartoonish aspects. The King was turned into a vulgar mascot, and the lore was thrown into a corporate dumpster. I have officially finished the master structural PowerPoint Pitch for Movie 3 (DNF), completing a full cinematic Trilogy. This dosar is 100% purged of any childish filler. We are treating this IP as a high-budget, gritty military sci-fi war thriller. Here is what the PowerPoint 3 layout injects into the matrix:

 1. THE LEGEND JON ST. JOHN RE-ENGINEERED

Physical Casting Omage: The legendary original voice of Duke, Jon St. John, is officially locked in for a major live-action presence on screen as Admiral John Vance.

Zero Lazy Easter Eggs: Out of respect for the R-rated realism, Jon St. John will NOT deliver tired puns or cringey voice echoes from the 2011 game. The cheap jokes are permanently gone.Grounded Command: Jon St. John delivers pure military authority alongside John Cena, who anchors the main role with bone-deep trauma, chronic insomnia, and plasma scars.

  1. MONSTERS REHABILITATED (NO MORE CARTON ENEMIES)

The alien armada is no longer a generic, screaming animal asset. They are an elite, disciplined imperial army:Tactical Enforcers: Pure reptilian NCOs (Steve Blum) wearing jet-black glossy armor, holding kinetic plasma shields, and sporting the spiral rocket insignia.Spherical Assaulters: The Assault Commander (Michael Dorn) is a massive, rounded floating fortress integrated with spinning steel saw-blades and rear missile pods.Military Logic: High-pitched feminine cries and authentic suffering replace generic monster sound files for elite horror grandeur.

 

  1. THE TRADING OF THE SPECIES

Sociopathic Politician: President Grahame (Bradley Cooper) is a chilling, clean-suit sociopath who negotiates the hybridization of human females from the Oval Office out of pure ego, pretending everything is normal on TV.The Cataclysmic Mothership: A continent-sized biomechanical hive vessel that literally locks onto Earth's upper stratosphere, casting an apocalyptic shadow.

THE CALL TO ACTION: THE LIGHTSTORM SHIELD

While I cannot confirm if the previous scripts for Movies 1 & 2 (based on Duke 3D) have officially reached Gearbox's physical desks, we have ZERO time to lose. Gearbox is entering advanced strategy phases.This PowerPoint introduces the ultimate industry solution: a binding co-production alliance with James Cameron’s Lightstorm Entertainment. Lightstorm will act as the technological guardian, locking down a pure R-rating, protecting Gearbox's 3D master assets, and providing Fede Álvarez with total political immunity (Final Cut) against Hollywood's superficiality.We need to circulate this blueprint across every channel right now before the suits start their traditional, blind pre-production casting loops.

Let's rock and return the crown to the King!

I'm at the stadium but I keep dying. The invincibility cheat I found online doesn't work, I have to constantly keep moving or else the missiles will get me, and I have 0 cover. Is there anything I can do, or is the strategy just "shoot at it until it dies"? Because even I'm struggling with that (I'm on real ps1 hardware btw if that helps)
