*NOTE keep all these files in the same directory as duke3d.grp

What should you have:
        the zip should have included; newmap3d.dat, kextract.exe, newnet3d.bat
        newslf3d.bat, newmap3d.txt, file_id.diz

What it is:
      It is really very simple. All it is is a group file like duke3d.grp
      only it has all new maps and some new art. ;-) when you run the batch
      files; newnet3d.bat for multiplayer games and newslf3d.bat for lone
      games, it extracts those files into your duke3d directory.  Doing this
      makes duke3d.exe use these .map files instead of the ones in you
      duke3d.grp.  The batch file then runs duke3d with a different .con file
      that puts in the names of the boards where the old names were.
      After the game runs, the batch then automatically deletes the files that
      it made to save you hard drive space long term.

If it screws up:

      Then most likely I am already on it because i use this on a regular basis
      on my home network, but , still please leave me E-MAil at
      godofall@infinet.com.

ThE BiggEst ProBlEm:

        Is that unfortunately in duke3d if you use an outside .grp file it must
        have everything in it; all sounds, all art, all music, etc. I hope to
        find a way around it so you can have a single .grp file that doesnt have
        to have every file extracted to use it. I'm still working on it.
        If you have any Ideas please E-mail me.
