Feral Interactive Are Teasing Us, Again

The picture text is I assume is in Arabic.

Google translate of "Somehow" English to Arabic back to English again is

"In a way or another"

similar enough to "One way or another"

"one way or another" the Blondie song Which appeared on the album Parallel Lines

This song has appeared in the PC games Rock Band 2 and some Guitar Hero games but also Driver : Parallel Lines

So I guessing it could be Driver : Parallel Lines

GOL Cast: Kicking some Demon Butt in Brutal Doom

The "double clicked the pk3" didn't work for me.

In the .zandronum folder I created a folder called "skins" and dropped the brutalv20.pk3 there.

Next I edited the zandrinum.ini and set fullscreen to be true,

and then there was bloody blood everywhere.
It's great.

The Big Three Build Engine Games On GOG
24 June 2015 at 6:15 pm UTC

I just got a reply fro GOG support for my display issue in Duke Nukem 3D. Here is what they said.
For performance and compatibility reasons, our version of Duke Nukem 3D has been set to run in screen mode 1 (Vesa 2.0), but this seems to cause issues with some display settings.
To change this, please go to the game's install path, and edit the file data/DUKE3D.CFG , and change this line :
ScreenMode = 1
into
ScreenMode = 0

Alternatively, you could define the actual resolution of your screen using these two parameters :
ScreenWidth = 800
ScreenHeight = 600

Hi all

I'm having a problem with GOG Duke Nukem 3D.
The game starts correctly , the initialize screen is ok. From the initial splash screen the display is cropped showing only the top left 2/3 of the screen.

Other GOG dosbox games work correctly eg Duke Nukem 1+ 2 and Blood.
The Steam version of Duke Nukem 3D classic also shows the same 2/3 for a second and them corrects to full screen..

I did a screenshot using gnome-screenshot and after taking the shot the display corrected it self. So this is one workaround. The issue returns the next time is start the game.
Tried F5 but did not help me.
I opened a GOG support ticket for this on the 7th June but have not had a reply back yet.
Any advice is welcome , is it something I should tweak in dosbox?

Thanks

The release calendar is a great addition to the site. It's so useful. In Steam's "Upcoming" list I cannot filter only the Linux games. I like the "Best Guess" feature too. So thanks Liam.

Download completed. Ran a quick test before going to work. It started first time . Looks and runs great so far, just arrived to the cloud city. Why does work get in the way?
