Yeah, I'll bet that's the problem.  Try installing it into a "clean" duke
directory.  I was using 1.5 also, but I installed it into a clean directory.
Something that has worked for me has been to do a clean install of
Duke(Atomic, CD Crack, et. al.) and then back it up into a "Duke Backup"
directory.  When installing new maps, TC's etc., it's best to install to a
clean version, without any "junk."  If that doesn't work, then your problem
is beyond my humble abilities :-)
