Duke3D User Made Maps - Maps presented here are gathered from several Top Ten list that Duker's played frequently (circa '96-'98) There may be a few maps made in later years. Other Maps where considered unique or special at the time they where released.

Reminder: All players MUST have the SAME EXACT Cons, Maps, Art and Sounds to keep the game in sync in multi-player.

Standard Compatibility Notes:

 - To play all these maps you basically would need both versions of duke (1.3d/1.5), or you'll have to modify the cons(if present), ART(if present) and/or maps yourself to get them to work correctly.

Maps: Maps made In Duke v1.3d are 90% foreword compatible with v1.4/1.5 of Duke. Maps made in v1.4/1.5 are 80% backwards compatible with 1.3d of Duke. There may be some problems when maps are used in "compatible" mode such as most noticeable would be some of the textures. In Duke 1.4/1.5 3DR moved some textures to new locations in the .ART Tiles and some new textures where added. There are other factors such as new features in the BUILD engine that are not present in the 1.3d version of Duke. This in turn, causes some Maps to be displayed incorrectly, or obscured. DukeTag Maps - Are only for v1.4/1.5 , EDuke User note - Maps are compatible.

CONs: Cons from v1.3d maybe compatible with v1.4/1.5 However 1.4/1.5 cons are not compatible with 1.3d , EDuke User note:  Duke1.5 Cons are compatible.

EDuke32 Compatibility Notes:

- To play all these maps with EDuke32 you basically would need both versions of duke (1.3d/1.5), or you'll have to modify the cons(if present), ART(if present) and/or maps yourself to get them to work correctly.

Maps: Maps are compatible with EDuke32.

CONs: EDuke32 has hardcoded workarounds for most of the issues that came up when testing faulty CON files that worked with the original DOS version.

.BAT Launchers: These maps may need fixes like changing a .bat file (if present) to call eduke32.exe instead of duke3d.exe.

This is a large level set in a military prison like area. It is specifically designed for 8 player Dukematching... and is not much fun for 2 players unless you like big levels. It focuses on the skill of a player... rather than the blind luck of shooting someone. This was the official level used in the Duke Nukem 3D Rodeo Shootout Tournament held on July 13th,1996 and September 7, 1996.

A regular sized level for Multiplayer gaming. Based on a paint ball building that I have been to. But, with LOTS of really cool features. Ideal for any number of players. No single player playing supported. Very dark and thought provoking level. This version has been modified for the TEN level design contest. Thus, Much care was put into the details, and playability of it.
