high rated
Since you guys wanted to try some mods out and as DukeNico pointed out in the general mod thread, Starship Troopers TC is one of the most well known and best rated Duke3D mod or TC (Total Conversion) there is around, I thought it would deserve a thread and everything by itself.
I also posted how to run SST TC with GOG's Duke3D in the mod thread, but here's the recap for you.

How to run Starship Troopers TC in GOG Duke3D
1) Download SSTTC.ZIP and uncompress it somewhere.
2) Uncompress SST_FULL.DAT (with WinRaR, 7-zip etc.) in the Duke Nukem 3D directory, overwriting all files.
3) Uncompress SST_ATOM.DAT (again, with WinRaR, 7-zip etc.) with into the Duke Nukem 3D directory and overwrite all existing files.
Optional) Open up "dosboxDuke3D.conf" in NOTEPAD, scroll all the way down until you see the second last line saying "duke3d.exe", add "/XBOOT.CON" without the quotes after it (with a leading space, ie: "duke3d.exe /xboot.con") if you want to play the Boot Camp (training) mission.
5) Run Duke Nukem 3D from the Shortcut the GOG Installer created.
6) Have fun!
I also attached three screenshots so you can get a sneak preview what you're in for. SSTTC has some really innovative coding (for 1.5 standards), superb level design and an overall solid gameplay experience.
