You'll need the "One Unit Whole Blood" CD-ROM: this is the only +version of the game supported by nblood. + +If you want to include the game data in the nblood package: + +- First, install system/isextract. This is needed to extract the data. + +- Mount the CD-ROM (anywhere) before running the SlackBuild and the + build script will find the data there. + +- If you have an ISO image instead of a disc, just copy or symlink the .iso + file into the SlackBuild directory (no need to mount anything). + +If you have an installed copy of the game rather than a CD or ISO, +you should be able to just copy it to /usr/share/games/nblood. Filename +upper/lower case doesn't matter. + +If you're working from the original CD, you can also rip the audio +tracks and convert them to ogg or flac. Follow the instructions in +/usr/doc/nblood-$VERSION/README.md to hear them in the game. + + +rednukem +======== + +The rednukem binary plays Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition v1.5 and +possibly (untested) the Plutonium Pak. It does *not* play the +shareware Duke Nukem 3D. + +For Atomic Edition, all you need is the DUKE3D.GRP file from the install +CD (mine's in atominst/ on the CD) or an installed copy of the game. It's +44356548 bytes long and has an md5sum of 22b6938fe767e5cc57d1fe13080cd522. +Copy this file to /usr/share/games/eduke32/ (no, that's not a typo, +rednukem uses eduke32's data directory). The filename actually doesn't +matter, rednukem uses the checksum to detect it. + +rednukem may also be able to play the Duke Nukem 3D addons such as +"Duke it out in D.C.", "Life's a Beach", or "Nuclear Winter". Also +possibly other games such as "Nam", "Napalm", "WWII GI", "Platoon +Leader", "Redneck Rampage", and "Redneck Rampage Rides Again". None of +these have been tested by the SlackBuild author. + + +pcexhumed +========= + +The pcexhumed binary plays: + +- Powerslave demo version. Install the powerslave_demo_data build to + play this. + +- The PC version of Exhumed. All I have is the demo version, and it fails + to play for me so I didn't make a package for it. + +- Supposedly the full versions of Powerslave and Exhumed are supported, + if you can find copies to try. Untested. |
