Well, this might not be much help but I had a similar problem when I first started. Then I read somewhere that build needed to be copied into the actual program; I was trying to run it off the disk and it wasn't switching into 3d mode correctly, and being a novice myself? I looked it up. lol One of the books I use (they both pretty much say the same thing), but it boils down to at the DOS prompt type in, COPYQ:\GOODIES\BUILD\*.* C:\DUKE3D where q: is your cd drive and c: is your main harddrive. Maybe that's what you're doing wrong. >shrug< lol Good luck--and mine's a piece of junk Packard Bell with a little ol' pentium 120 in, 16 mgs of ram, so it oughta work fine for you if it works on mine. Anyway, later daze! -- Randy "Think fish get cramps after they eat?"
