Widescreen resolution

The Steam version supports custom resolutions in the launcher. Use these steps for non-Steam versions.
Set resolution and FOV in config.cfg[5]
  1. If the game is showing the launcher on startup, check the box to skip it then run the game and exit.
  2. Go to <path-to-game>\duke\base
  3. Edit config.cfg
  4. Change uset r_mode to the resolution you want.
  5. Add the line uset g_cam_fov "90" with the horizontal FOV you want (default is 50).
  6. Save your changes and close the file.
  7. Make the file read-only (this prevents the FOV line being removed when you exit the game).

Notes

The HUD and all other 2D elements are stretched from 4:3.

Issues Fixed

Can't double jump

When running above 60 FPS double jumping doesn't work and Duke can get stuck when intending to climb up ledges, landing on downward-moving platforms in the final episode leaves Duke stuck in a jumping animation until the platform starts moving up again, making some sequences difficult to complete
The game uses vsync (enable by default) both in Direct3D to OpenGL mode .but in Windows 10 in Direct3D mode it doesn't work because the game uses Directx 8 and vsync of Directx 8 in Windows 10 is broken.
Change driver from Direct3D8 to OpenGL or vice versa and set monitor on 60hz[8]
Cap the framerate to 60[citation needed]

See Frame rate capping

Use (d3d8to9 only windows 10) and set monitor on 60hz[citation needed]

Vsync (Always on) not working on Windows10 (Direct3D8 mode)

  1. Download d3d8to9.
  2. Copy D3D8.DLL from the folder to the game install directory

Notes

  1. SafeDisc retail DRM does not work on Windows 10[2] or Windows 11 and is disabled by default on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 when the KB3086255 update is installed.[3]
  2. 2.0 2.1 When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  3. 3.0 3.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/240200/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (240200) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
