Alien Armageddon 4.60 file

To install and run:

• Unpack the folder alien_armageddon from the AA460.zip file.
• If upgrading from a previous version, do a clean install of the new version and then copy over your eduke32.cfg and settings.cfg files from your old install, because they contains your settings and saved progress.
• Run eduke32.exe to start the game

Graphic Mode selection:

• On the video mode dropdown menu, use an OpenGL video mode for the game to display properly.
• Do NOT check the box for "Polymer". The Polymer renderer is not compatible with Alien Armageddon.
• Alien Armageddon is compatible with 8-bit video modes, but some graphics will display incorrectly.

Configuration:

As with any mouse and keyboard shooter, you should configure the mouse and keyboard to your liking. Alien Armageddon uses some functions different from regular Duke 3D

ALT FIRE

RELOAD WEAPON

SWAP CHARACTERS

SUBWEAPON

PORTABLE VENDOR

You should assign each of those to suitable keys or buttons from the setup menu before starting a game. SWAP CHARACTERS will switch control of the playable character, if the other character is available. ALT FIRE will activate the secondary function of the weapon currently selected, if the weapon has a secondary function. It is assigned to mouse2 by default. RELOAD WEAPON will reload the weapon, if applicable. SUBWEAPON will switch to a subweapon on the same weapon slot, if one is available (for example, it will switch between shrinker and expander). You can also access subweapons by using the next/previous weapon keys. The PORTABLE VENDOR key will bring up a menu in which you can purchase upgrades and change costumes (this is not available in all episodes though).

A note about the "censoredtiles" folder. This folder contains alternative versions of the .ART files with less explicit sexual content. If you are a streamer who serves a general audience, or just a player who wants less sexual content in the game, replace the .ART tiles at the root with the ones in the censoredtiles folder. Don't forget to make a backup of the originals if you want them later!

Troubleshooting:

Make sure you have tried doing a clean install of Alien Armageddon without any additional files or files from previous versions. Also make sure you are not using the Polymer renderer. If the problem you are having is a performance related issue such as low frame rate or hitching/freezing during gameplay, then you may have a system that does not work well with EDuke32 (e.g. one with an older AMD graphics card). Unfortunately there is little we can do to help in that case, but feel free to contact us so that we can pass on the information to the EDuke32 dev team.

If you are reporting a bug or a crash, please save the ‘eduke32.log’ file that was created right after this happened. It will be located at the root level of your game folder with the executable. That file may contain crucial information about the issue which will help us solve it.

Our public Discord server is the best way to reach us and can be joined with this link: Discord.gg Please use the bug reports channel if you are reporting a bug or a problem running the game.
