Can't figure out how to run Duke Nukem 3D mods

[Blackgrowl]

Hey, so I already know how to make Blood mods run with RAZE, even how to make them compatible on another thread.
But I still can't seem to find a way on how to make it with Duke Nukem 3D, I got a feeling this has been asked and answered many times but even that I can't find, I'm terrible with searching.

So, how exactly can I run a DN3D mod? I thought simply having the file in .zip and then dragging it to RAZE and starting DN3D will do, but it seems that didn't work.
For reference, the mod I wanna play is this one https://forums.duke4.net/topic/3420-adream-trilogy/

For Duke this does not work if the mod has some CON modification. Due to how all this needs to be done the engine cannot guess what CON file to load. So you have to use the command line or a batch file.
This mod, however, won't work with Raze. It is an EDuke32 mod using features not present in Raze.

Damn, I suppose I'll just wait for it then, after using RAZE I simply can't go back to EDuke32 anymore.

I'm glad that Blood mods work perfectly fine at least.

If you want run mods are for EDuke32 or you want play Ion Fury(which still EDuke32 mod essentially but much larger scale to indie game) then you still need EDuke32 for them. (And that's means IF won't be supported by Raze, same reason)

At least I think EDuke32 still improving no matter what, some may still never liked it but it still getting better.

Pretty much this.

For starters, we were initially based on it, but we removed EDuke32 after version 0.6 as it didn't fit our vision and for many other technical reasons. Some mods that don't rely on deep EDuke32 features may see some support in the future, as we recently did with the hightile support - but EDuke32 itself, is never coming back.

So, if mods *need* EDuke32, there's no circumventing it.

It may actually be a good idea to pin this topic.
