Infinity: Secrets Of The Acropolis[]
Infinity: Secrets Of The Acropolis (often shortened to Secrets Of The Acropolis) is a mod for Duke Nukem 3D (compatible with the original Duke Nukem 3D and Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition). It was created by Level Infinity and originally released on August 28th, 1997; an updated version, which could be played without an installation program, was released on September 8th, 1997. It contains new levels, graphics, and music. A version of Secrets Of The Acropolis was released for the Macintosh on August 30th, 1997.
To play the updated version of the mod with the original Duke Nukem 3D with a source port, such as EDuke32, do the following:
1. After unzipping the mod's folder (xsota), right click on the the "sota" application (it is a .bat file), then choose edit. You will see this text appear:
duke3d /xsota.con /gsota.grp
Edit the text so that it displays:
eduke32.exe /xsota.con /gsota.grp
