Modding tips
- The game directory is searched for files before looking inside DUKE3D.GRP. This means when you replace a file you don't need to copy it inside DUKE3D.GRP to test it.
- The game has a command-line option to load custom .GRP files. This means you can package your mod into a single GRP file and distribute it easily. Any game files not in your .GRP file will be loaded from the main DUKE3D.GRP.
