Re: duke - FPS

Hi,

Thanks - works quite nice now ;)

I'm not too concerned about sound at the moment, but thanks.

Has anyone gotten network games going, either between two dosemu dukes
via ipx emulation, or even dosemu-duke against a win machine?  Is this
possible yet with dosemu?

There was a utility out there that was supposed to let duke play via
tcp/ip, and I don't mean Kali and friends, it was a duke hack - i've
never gotten it to work on windows, but if ipx isn't possible yet, I
wonder if duke would work via this hack using dosemu tcp/ip packet stuff
- has anyone tried anything along these lines?
