text: While a few short-lived DOS based EDuke projects emerged , it was not until the release of EDuke32 , an extended version of Duke3D incorporating variants of both Fowler 's Microsoft Windows JFDuke3D code and Saettler 's EDuke code , by one of 3D Realms ' forum moderators in late 2004 that EDuke 's scripting extensions received community focus .
simplified: A few projects have been created from the EDuke version ( most notably WinEDuke and EDuke 2.1.1 ) , but it was not until the release of Richard Gobeille 's EDuke32 ( a version of JFDuke3D using Saettler 's EDuke software ) in 2004 that EDuke became a the most popular with programmers .
