At the end of April, 1997, the Australian OFLC re-classified the original US version of 3D Realms' Mega-Hit - Duke Nukem 3D. This now may be distributed legally in Australia with the same MA15+ rating that the original censored Australian version received. If you have the earlier censored Australian version, and would like to change to the un-censored US version, use the compressed patch file here.

Copy all the files from the ozpatch.zip file you downloaded into your Duke Nukem 3D game directory - by default this is most likely c:\DUKE3D

Go to the DOS prompt in your Duke directory and type D3DUS [Enter] - your Australian version will be replaced with the US version.

Please note: This patch will work only with the Australian version of Duke Nukem 3D, and only with the installed files from the complete version - not the shareware version.  None of the US versions will need this file - IT IS ONLY for the Australian restricted v1.3d CD.  
NOTE: This patch adds no new features to the game, it just removes the australian restriction on the software, restoring it to the "real v1.3d version".
