Explain? 3DRealms site is up 24/7 and accepts credit cards, I think. Everyone with internet access can probably get a credit card or borrow one. Anyhow your goal is just laugh, you will be wasting several months to make a one-level mod.

It could well be on the Chinese black list, Ghoste. They do have that habbit. Hell, Australia even had it's qualms with Mr. Nukem.

I know it was banned in Brazil, as was Blood and even DOOM.

"So what" you might say, well it kinda goes against ethics.

I also purchased OUWB from a guy in Germany he couldn't sell it through eBay because it was banned there. The listing closed early but I had his e-mail.

Anyone can buy a legal duke download from 3D Realms website AFAIK. They won't stop billing the customers credit cards because of any local prohibitions.

You don't purchase Abandonware, unless your very new to this internet thing.. and I'd be more worried about who you sent your credit card to if you did. Abandonware is just another label for unauthorized use of software... but you know, however you want to candy coat it dude...

As for 3D Realms only selling the atomic edition of DN, well now would you go to a new car dealership and expect to purchase a 1996 Ford Escort? No, they are going to sell you the latest model they have.

Yes they do, I have a friend in Brazil that has tried.

What is so hard about judging the right or wrong of "unauthorized use of software"? :shrug:

Right. Anyway, what compelled you to make a build game, Che-err, leileilol?

And are you changing any code? (Not con files, actual source).

Nifty. Did you use preexisting bot and multiplay code? Is it only going to be art and audio changes? Anything planned?

It really does look like a Duke 3D mod. Looks kinda neat and those lines the character was saying were nice. I wish modern games could have a main character that talks one liners like Caleb and the others unless there's some out there that I haven't seen or played.

I am always amazed at time when you post without "sounding" like a jackass. I asked perfectly legitimate questions. I guess it isn't that interesting anyway, so I can give up trying to find out about it.
