Kurz:         Amiga Portierung von Duke Nukem 3D

Overview:

This is an Amiga 68k port of Duke Nukem 3D based on an old Atari port
with some newer features from Chocolate Duke added for extra flavour.


Requirements:

1) An AGA Amiga (PAL only)
2) 68060 processor or better (PiStorm CM4 recommended)
3) 32 MB of RAM
4) AHI installed and configured (see links section below)
5) CAMD library for native MIDI playback (see links section below)
6) The Duke Nukem 3D data files (must be the full PC Atomic version!).


Configuration Options:

The 'CloseWB' configuration option can be used to close the Workbench.
When running from the Shell you must specify a stack of at least 300,000.
The AHI device used will be the one setup in your AHI Prefs (unit 0).
You will need to place the PC game data files DUKE3D.GRP and DUKE.RTS 
in the AmiDuke folder.
It will try to use digital music data first (OGG/WAV), if no files are
found it will then try and use the game data to play native MIDI (CAMD).
Any errors *should* be written to a file called 'ERROR.TXT' in the game
directory.


Performance Considerations:

1) If you have a Blizzard you should really be using BlizKick, Apollo users
   should be using RemApollo.
2) Fast File System is actually really slow, use PFS3 instead.
3) Playing OGG compressed music on a real Amiga will be very slow, try using
   WAV files or MIDI instead.
4) Use v4.18 of AHI as the later versions are too slow on a real Amiga.


Limitations:

1) No network support.
2) No joystick support.
