Two things:

Doesn't matter; homebrew I/O speeds aren't great, and you're loading about 400mb worth of assets on top of the game and engine.
The 'stuttering' is generating texture cache; that's why your frame times are improved as it goes on.


I've already commented on this as a request, and no, you can't load anything other than Duke Nukem 3D Vanilla/Plutonium/Atomic; No .GRP mods, no official addons.
I see, so the switch is still limited in this.
Yeah it is actually more like 1GB with the music included.
Nothing much you can do about the "stuttering" I suppose?

Is the Duke Nukem 3D's 20th Anniversary Edition coming to the switch the same as the homebrew we have now?
Or what is different?

What your saying is there is no reason to have the homebrew unless you prefer the music and voice?

I m saying the homebrew version allows you to play the better version of the game. so there's no reason to buy 20th-anniversary version unless you have 2nd nonhack switch

Just some better music... i just heard switch version might have extra episode though

We have a fully hacked console.
We can mod the release to have the original music and the original voice samples.

Question is, has anyone done that mod yet?
Scratch this.
The port that just released today has a Legacy Duke Voice option under Sound Settings, so no mods required for that.

20th Anniversary has this really messed up compressed audio. The sound effects even are screwed up. Like... Really drastically badly.

The audio isn't totally horrible when heard on Switch's speakers, but it's defiantly worse than the homebrew version. Surely we can take a look at the file structure, replace the audio files with the files from your preferred version (1996 or 2013).

The main improvement in the official release is the gyro aiming. Otherwise it's not even worth installing when we have the homebrew already.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I think you only get like 425gb on a series s hard drive, so you get 1, 2 next gen games max
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, so you need to have another series s if you wanna play more games?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Nuh you buy extra HD n add to it, but not cheap
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, how can a console have more than 1 hard drives?
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    usb expansion? I know the PS4 can do this
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, oh Yea I recall my PS3 can do that
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Modded ofc
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Speaking of my PS3 i havent downloaded any games yet bc my wifi is too slow
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    and also because blackouts here are very common and that could damage the console
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    Do you have a surge protector or an UPS?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea but to play the next gen games, you must have those games on internal, or buy the official ssd expansion cards, which are expensive
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, dunno what each one of those are
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, my PS3 was already modded when my dad bought it for me and my brother
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    A surge protector is a device that protects your electronics from fluctuations. I recommend having your console plugged into one of those
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    An UPS is even better because it has an internal battery that keeps your system on even if the power goes out, but it's much more expensive obviously
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, oh i recall seeing one in some in the houses of some relatives, including my dad's apartment
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, although whatever device we plug into them stops getting power anyways lol
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    that's weird
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, and oh i was talking about ups
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
