Alien Armageddon is the premier mod for Duke 3D and we are closing out 2022 with another awesome update! On December 4th we are releasing version 4.65, which includes all previous content plus some new features and fixes.
Here is a quick list of what Alien Armageddon includes:
- All the old episodes of Duke 3D, enhanced with new voxels and other decor, as well as remade enemies, plus new enemies exclusive to AA, and a selection of fresh weapons and other equipment.
- Our own enhanced versions of the two best Duke 3D expansions.
- Three of our own singleplayer campaigns: New Invasion, Space Gladiators, and Resistance, all including huge detailed levels with lots of action.
- A randomized campaign option called War of Attrition, where you can play through a random sequence of the best levels ever made for Duke 3D -- there are literally hundreds of maps.
- Three fully playable characters: Duke Nukem, Bombshell, and Wes Wolf. Each character has their own unique weapons, abilities and upgrades. You can play the campaigns solo, or you can use two characters and swap control between them while the other one is controlled by AI.
- An in-game vendor system for purchasing upgrades to weapons and inventory items, as well as a selection of perks.
- The player characters as well as enemies have a leveling system. Your health and damage go up with levels. So do your weapons -- each weapon slot has its own XP bar. But watch out, enemies become higher level as you advance and they have a large pool of random traits that they can spawn with.
- Many new fully animated NPCs to populate the game world. And you can rescue civilians in distress, for a small reward.
- As of version 4.65, there is an in-game options menu accessible via the portable vendor where you can toggle and change various game options on the fly, such as difficulty, cosmetics, and even whether the levels are mirrored.

Can I disable double tap dash? I killed myself so many times jumping off a cliff or into a death pit, I'd prefer to just use the hotkey to dash.
While I don't think this will happen, it would be amazing if the maps from the Blast Radius mod ( Moddb.com ) were added to Alien Armageddon, perhaps in the War of Attrition mode. They are huge enough that playing through them with AA's features would be a blast (no pun intended...maybe)!
I don't have the patience to read through all of the comments, so I'm gonna ask it myself and hope it gets a direct answer!
Any chance for an addition of the 20th Anniversary episode maps, Alien World Tour, to be added to Alien Armageddon? And/or potentially the N64 variations of levels, weapons, etc?
I do know that Bombshell's launcher is based off of the N64 launcher, but I am noting a lack of the grenade launcher! And I think that the version of Red Light District (I seem to remember the N64 version being called 'Gun Crazy' ) that has the Duke Burger built into it gave the level a good bit more personality! I assume as well that the upgrades for the shotgun are simulating the Explosive Shells, though I'm not sure how the AP Rounds upgrade for the pistol would equate to the Dumdum Rounds. Just food for thought!
Now that I think about it, wasn't there a secret teleporter in Hollywood Holocaust near the level exit in the N64 version that took you to a sort of convenience store or some such that isn't in the PC version? It's been a long time since I've played Duke 64, but I remember there were a good number of changes in the maps, the Ripper being turned into dual SMGs, and the Freezethrower becoming the Plasma Cannon.
Oh! One more request, and maybe it's a little silly, but... Maybe make a perk (or make it so Steroids allow it or something) that lets you use Quick Kick at the same time as the equipped Mighty Boot? It's very, very silly, I know... but doing the Cancan on Pig Cops is such a delightfully hilarious bit of nostalgia from classic Duke 3D. :'D
We have other brand new planned content in the works and probably won't ever include the 20th Anniversary maps. Also that episode is still sold commercially and we have never included anything in that category for obvious reasons.

Some more things I think could be interesting additions in future updates are the possibility of weapon skin packs? As in, like, make them look like their 3D versions, N64 versions, maybe even some custom sprite work to make weapons from other Duke games as sprites as well like the Blaster from Duke Nukem: Zero Hour for the pistol, that kind of thing! (Maybe even a whole 3P camera to emulate that game if that's something that would be possible. I know there's a 3P Camera cheat so I dunno how that could be used to help.)
Also maybe the Total Meltdown maps and enemies, since that did have some of its own exclusive stuff as well!
Sorry if all of these ideas are way too much work, or just not capable of being done with the way the mod is handled.
We don't check Mod DB very often unless we have just released something, but we are on Discord all the time so hopefully we see you on our Discord server if you want to discuss your ideas.
Great mod, so many features! Off topic, can you make a tutorial on how to code dual weapons, new weapons and mechanics? i am good at making sprite edits but suck at .CON editing.
I have searched the internet and cant find a good tutorial on .CON editing.
I have written some partial tutorial and I regularly answer questions about CON coding on discord and on the duke4.net forums.
Thanks for the reply, where i can find this partial tutorial? i liked Duke Plus and AA so much that i want to make my take for personal use and to sharpen my skills.
i have created an account on duke4net but cant post, comment or reply and i dont know why.
