Game Data README for nblood
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
nblood actually includes 3 game binaries: nblood itself, rednukem,
|
|
|
|
|
and pcexhumed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
nblood
|
|
|
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The nblood binary plays only Blood version 1.21, and its add-on, Cryptic
|
|
|
|
|
Passage. You'll need the "One Unit Whole Blood" CD-ROM: this is the only
|
|
|
|
|
version of the game supported by nblood.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to include the game data in the nblood package:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- First, install system/isextract. This is needed to extract the data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Mount the CD-ROM (anywhere) before running the SlackBuild and the
|
|
|
|
|
build script will find the data there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- If you have an ISO image instead of a disc, just copy or symlink the .iso
|
|
|
|
|
file into the SlackBuild directory (no need to mount anything).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you have an installed copy of the game rather than a CD or ISO,
|
|
|
|
|
you should be able to just copy it to /usr/share/games/nblood. Filename
|
|
|
|
|
upper/lower case doesn't matter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you're working from the original CD, you can also rip the audio
|
|
|
|
|
tracks and convert them to ogg or flac. Follow the instructions in
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/doc/nblood-$VERSION/README.md to hear them in the game.

rednukem

|
|
========

The rednukem binary plays Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition v1.5 and
|
|
|
|
|
possibly (untested) the Plutonium Pak. It does *not* play the
|
|
|
|
|
shareware Duke Nukem 3D.
|
2020-05-02 12:30:53 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For Atomic Edition, all you need is the DUKE3D.GRP file from the install
|
|
|
|
|
CD (mine's in atominst/ on the CD) or an installed copy of the game. It's
|
|
|
|
|
44356548 bytes long and has an md5sum of 22b6938fe767e5cc57d1fe13080cd522.
|
|
|
|
|
Copy this file to /usr/share/games/eduke32/ (no, that's not a typo,
|
|
|
|
|
rednukem uses eduke32's data directory). The filename actually doesn't
|
|
|
|
|
matter, rednukem uses the checksum to detect it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2021-11-01 19:38:58 +01:00
|
|
|
rednukem may also be able to play the Duke Nukem 3D addons such as
|
|
|
|
|
"Duke it out in D.C.", "Life's a Beach", or "Nuclear Winter". Also
|
|
|
|
|
possibly other games such as "Nam", "Napalm", "WWII GI", "Platoon
|
|
|
|
|
Leader", "Redneck Rampage", and "Redneck Rampage Rides Again". None of
|
|
|
|
|
these have been tested by the SlackBuild author.

pcexhumed
|
|
|
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The pcexhumed binary plays:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Powerslave demo version. Install the powerslave_demo_data build to
|
|
|
|
|
play this.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The PC version of Exhumed. All I have is the demo version, and it fails
|
|
|
|
|
to play for me so I didn't make a package for it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Supposedly the full versions of Powerslave and Exhumed are supported,
|
|
|
|
|
if you can find copies to try. Untested.
