Duke3DS - Beta Test for DS

[wraggster]

GPF has today posted a Beta Test release of Duke Nukem 3D for the Nintendo DS, heres the release info:


finally fixed the black lines on the floor, made some other minor tweaks.

Let me know how it works and please give me constructive feedback, how should the controls work, I haven't tried other fps's on the ds, so not sure how to do the controls for it. Plus any other ideas will be helpful.

81 downloads -- 2 comments on last release, hard to improve without feedback.

Thanks,
Troy(GPF)

Looks good, sounds bad, and controls bad. But i cant wait till this is working perfect.

Well for the controls you should kind of put them like quake ds shoot with L,walk with dpad, aim with touch screen,press R to jump, x or y to switch weapons

[Sir_Voe]

I'd also like to see QuakeDS style controls (forward/back/strafeleft/straferight mapped to the Dpad, and mouse style aiming on the touch screen. Quake DS also has 8 custom hotkey buttons on the touch screen that you can bind any action to (great for jumping/changing weapons), and I think that setup would be ideal for Duke3DS.
One thing I noticed, It seems like the buttons are all set to rapid fire and it makes crouching very twitchy. I wonder if that plays a part in the touchy dpad turning.
Can't wait to see this one when it's done, seems like just a few rough edges as far as gameplay/sound.

Controls. The Bald text is for right handed. the other is for lefthanded.

Walk: D-Pad or A,B,X,Y
Aiming : Stylus
Shoot : Shoulder L or R
Weapons : B,Y or D-Pad Down, Right
Open Doors : X or Up on D-Pad
Jump : Double tap D-Pad up or double tap X
Crouch : Double tap D-Pad down, or Double tap B.
Menu : Start and Select (as it is)

yeah this one is good do that one :) although i would prefer to jump with r >_>

well other then the double tap stuff, I think the other defines can be done by just changing the duke3d.cfg [KeyDefinitions] section.

If you come up with a new duke3d.cfg that matches that please post it.
