Subj: Official Duke3D v1.2 Information
Status: Public

As of the writing of this message, Duke Nukem 3D v1.2 has not yet been released.
But.....

The next version of Duke Nukem 3D, v1.2, is due to be released NEXT WEEK.
It will appear sometime between Monday evening April 22nd, and Friday April 
26th.   When it's released, you'll find out about it here first!  Keep 
checking back here, we'll have a new fast T3 FTP site for you to get the file
from when it's released.

The registered version (v1.2) is also being mastered Friday the 19th, and the
CD-ROM will be going off for duplication early next week.  We should start
shipping pre-orders of the registered CD-ROM in about 2 to 3 weeks.   I will
be posting more registered updates, including the actual day we start shipping
once I have a precise date.    The wait is almost over!  The game should start
appearing in the stores in the US about a week after the pre-orders are shipped
out depending on where you are in the country.  Overseas should happen about
a week or two after that.

Here's a partial list of what comes on the CD-ROM with the game.  Registered
versions of Duke Nukem I and Duke Nukem II in addition to Duke Nukem 3D. 
Shareware versions of five of our other games (Terminal Velocity, Realms of
Chaos, Rise of the Triad, Raptor, & Wacky Wheels).   You also get Build, which
is the level editor that we used to make all the levels in Duke Nukem 3D. 
You get Editart, which is the program that lets you get at the game graphics.
There is a comprehensive help file for Build, including specs on the MAP file 
format, so you can use it to write your own level editor if you wish.  There 
are also screen shots of some of our other coming games like Blood, Shadow 
Warrior, & Prey.  Plus lots lots more!
