Duke Nukem 3D - Hotel Hell dev history

Hotel hell development history through 5 key versions. Started by Allen but taken over by Richard later on. Each map is run through the closest matching EXE & CON & ART. Some times broken/missing content had to be researched and restored by hand from other sources. EXE and CON (code) are matching, except for october where CON is re-used from an earlier version Some very light modifications have been done to maps to fix things like textures being relocated, shading being way too dark or sector over sector floors just not being merged. NOTE: Music selections are random as it changed around practically between every build Goal is not to show all secrets or every change, just some of the bigger ones. Overall, a huge amount of work and effort went in to this map. 00:00 Intro 00:16 M6 from "Lameduke" as E2L6. Still in very rough shape with unclear progression. Likely meant to guide the player to sewers and ascend from there to city streets. Uses unmodified lameduke, january 95 milestone Somewhere here Richard is presumably tasked with finishing off the map, a lot of work was done in-between * 04:02 E2L2 from 95-08-31, "build .909" Key concepts and areas from previous version have been greatly expanded towards what resembles the final product much more. This is the final build with powerups and many of the old features before the game was completely rebalanced for the shareware episode. Code & CON Snapshot from 95-09-22, modified for stability and to work at 640x400. Engine is November. All ART was painfully sourced from earlier/later builds and source art archives. End result is very close but not 100% accurate as some assets/references are missing. 10:20 HOTEL from 95-10-18, "October 15th, 0.97B" as either E2L2 or E3L1 A further evolved version from what was seen and the garage has been relocated to where it would remain until it's removal. Focus would move on to making shareware content. The main beats and overall layout now match what's in the final but still many oddities exist. Powerups had just been removed so the game play ended up incredibly unbalanced and boring. Game code is from Oct 15 and Engine Oct 19. CON is november, which affects enemy logic mostly ART was rebuilt, based on september (Should now match closer to what was at the time) 16:11 E3L8 from 96-01-15 under modified 1.0 shareware. Shareware has been completed by now and the game is at 1.0 with all focus going on registered version's weapons, enemies and maps. What we're looking at is clearly Hotel Hell but you can spot many oddities all over which are remnants from the development. Game/CON are all 1.0 shareware. Despite this, it has all the enemies and weapons intact. ART has been combined all the way from 1.0 -- "old 0.99" -- 1.1 -- 1.2, along with a few sprites from an ealier version to fill in the blanks such as the flamer 22:00 E3L8 from 96-03-26 under registered 1.2 Final stretch towards the release. Many performance tweaks to the map are under progress and there are still many clearly visible differences. Uses Registered 1.2 with all of the data/code being exact to the release. The map file is slightly earlier to make things a bit more interesting.
