| I managed to get this working on my Radeon 9200 card by taking the libGL.so files from the Legacy fglrx driver and placing it in the Doom 3 directory. It runs well through Window Maker, better than on Windows (but to be fair I have upgraded my card since then). Should try getting the full version. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Hi, I made an install script for the french version. You will need the zpak000.pk4 file (on the Doom 3 first CD). The script can be found here. Share it ! --- Pour ceux qui sont allergiques à l'anglais, j'ai écrit un script qui installe Doom3 en version française. Vous aurez besoin du fichier zpak000.pk4 (sur le premier CD de Doom 3).

| I have to learn all over again how to extract the .pk4 files for this new version 1.3, if it is even possible (has anyone succeeded?). The game absolutely requires that speed tweak on my system; I could do it on version 1.1, but now I can't (file version overwrites during the extract messes things up). I've done the C++ lib relocate tweak, but that doesn't gain enough speed (at least it isn't crashing). On the good side, the sound problems are fixed (in my SuSE 9.2). Hilarious handicap: I found out that the game doesn't like my mini ps/2 connected Logitech optical mouse. It asserts itself by unexpectedly rapidly changing and/or firing weapons in a big "spazz" of unpredicatable length. All I had to do to fix this was switch the mouse to a USB port. AMD 3200+ overclocked at 2.332 GHz, MSI 6702 Mobo, Geforce 5200 fx (video card is weak!!), 1 GB PC 2700 ram. | |||

| How many other doom 3 players are waiting for the ROE expansion pack support-and in my case the resolution of lan networking issues.Have received an e-mail from Timothee Besset stating some of his .plan for the next point release-but no mention of ROE support....we can only hope. The sad fact is linux clients for ID's games(and many other commercial games too) are funded by ID-the developers in other words,publishers see little if any financial gain in it.This will remain the norm l think. Just my two cents.... | |||

| There's way too many reasons this game won't run right. Uppercase paths in the .pk4 files make maps not load (In my case, the Monorail map is the one). I fix one instance of this path problem, and something else is wrong. Pieces of furniture don't render (even that picker that you have to ride to a ledge above dissapeared in my game). My spider monsters have their legs on wrong, looking like evil attacking squiggles. Needs a big patch from id to be playable. Too bad, because it DOES run faster on my rig than the Windows XP counterpart. | |||

DOOM III broken under XOrg posted by Anonymous @ 80.138.100.208 on Jan 8 2005 11:33 AM | |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I consider this GAME to be highly unoptimized for Linux Systems OR XOrg + ATI to be highly blown up. While I played many 3D Shooters under Linux, this DOOM 3 demo (Latest available, with ALSA sound) is beating the hell out of me. I run the latest 2.6.10 Kernel + DRI enabled and XOrg from CVS which contains the S3TC patches for Mesa (together with the S3TC library) and all I receive under my ATI 9200 SE card is 'black polygons' well you can see some elements of the polygons but they usually contain black areas which totally sucks. Otherwise the GAMESpeed is correct and I am also able to walk around quickly, stuff like displays show and so on. Anyone has an idea here ? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| ID does not make games it make engines, you wont see anything usefull from the doom3 engine until other developers license the engine from ID. Thats the whole point id (:)) guess. The game was dissapointing, the ending was an anti climax. The environment was very static. Who the f*** cares about real shadows, id rather be able to interact more with the environment. That would to me give a much more realistic feeling to a game, no doubt some developer will do this, i never really expected it from ID from past experience. Monster warps in in front of me bang bang turn around because another will do so there bang bang step around "immovable indistructible box" bang bang. whoopie im rewarded by lights coming back on. cheap scare effects. I found alien more scarey. bloody base should have been using candles for all the lighting it had. There should be some good games coming out when the engine is licenced out anyway, its a good tech demo i guess | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| I really wonder why on earth they all tends to make boring games with many many graphic details, but so dark it's as fun as playing with the screen off. The lighting is supposed to be a must, and I see no light at all. Having physically realistic lighting is not what I expect, I don't even care if it is not playable at all. Having many details is not usefull, if there is nothing else and virtually no fun at all. Claiming graphics are good is simply false, as long as there are still those triangles. I found Doom3 quite ugly, especially with such resource waste. I miss Quake3's nurbs, that was really nicer, faster, lighter, far more funny. This game is a non-event. I wasn't patient enough to reach the first monster, and erased it therefore. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The performance gain is exceptional. *The main highlight of 6629 # Added support for GeForce 6600 and GeForce 6600 GT. # Added support for Quadro FX 4000 SDI # Added support for 512 MB framebuffers. # "Improved support for GLSL (OpenGL Shading Language)"" # Improved performance for VBO (OpenGL Vertex Buffer Objects).<-------------------------< #" Improved support for Linux 2.6 kernels"" <----------------------<. # Improved support for PCI Express. # "Reduced virtual address space consumption in OpenGL applications."" <------------< # The Known Issues section contains new information for EM64T and for multithreaded application stability. There are also new appendices: (app-s) APPENDIX S: POWER MANAGEMENT SUPPORT (app-t) APPENDIX T: DISPLAY DEVICE NAMES (app-u) APPENDIX U: THE COMPOSITE X EXTENSION # Improved support for EM64T Linux/x86-64 systems # Improved support for RenderAccel # Improved performance for Java2D. I have a 5900xt and in the timedemo @ 1152x864 2x anisotropic filtering on high quality is 34 fps. I have been playing through it again on nightmare, the performance is liquid smooth with no bog downs when the screen is full of enemies in a high architectureal area..everything is smooth very smooth. Its kinda of funny getting 34 fps in a time demo and the game play is super smooth. Makes me wounder what the next patch will yield with the optimizations they were talking about.

| The beginning of this game reminds me of System Shock 2. I think the whole game tries to get the SS2 feeling, but since it has to be a sequel to Doom, it must involve lots of wanton destruction. IMO it's a shame, because the atmosphere is mostly very good, and this game would've gone far if it wasn't just for shooting. Anyway, a quality product. A lot better than Half-Life, and almost as good as the original Unreal. Thumbs up! | |||||||||||||

| The demo works fine on gentoo, everything works and even tweaked it up a bit, but the game is bloody BORING. Just another clone of an idea that has been done to death. The only thing going for this game is the massive HYPE because of the creators (who self-destructed at the release of Quake long ago). Tiny closed in spaces are not what I expect for a 'new game engine', and certainly not gameplay very similar to the original Wolfenstein (except that didn't have the glacial slowness of reloading). Good thing I didn't waste any $$$ on the game! When the two Johns split, id went to shyt. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Actually it does run slower in linux than it does in windows. I have my slack 10 tweaked to the max.The difference in speed in linux is windows is 50-60fps avg linux is 35-46 avg. Some of you are gonna frown, I know I feel the same way but the truth is windows runs Doom3 faster. Even the crew that worked on the port mentioned a 15% performance hit. Any of you that says linux runs it faster than it does in windows is probly on a linux Newbie power trip. 35-46 fps on my rig though is still pretty dang good also considering that {id} made the doom3 client out of the kindness of their hearts. Mainly because they cant really profit at all from making linux software. Since many of us linux users want software for free. I dont know about the rest of you folks I kinda doubt most of you bought a copy Doom3. I actually did buy it cause good software is worth buying.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| hi all,
The game itself runs fine but i have some questions. First the TwinView Mode (used on nVidia Cards for Dualscreen in XFree86) is slow in the game. So it's almost impossible to play. Even GLX and Hardware Rendering is used. In windows i have the same problem but since i use windows only for Playing game i coiuld disable the DualScreen mode. Under Linux i want to use the Dualscreen mode and play the game. If i only use one Screen the game runs just fine. Another problem is that i can't use F9 (Reload Latest QuickSaveGame) if i press F9 the game gets loaded just as usual but in the moment where the game starts it crashes with: ------------- Warnings --------------- during game/delta3... WARNING: Couldn't load sound 'guisounds.wav' using default WARNING: Non-portable: path contains uppercase characters: base/dds/makeIntensity/lights WARNING: Non-portable: path contains uppercase characters: base/models/mapobjects/hell/Delta3 WARNING: Non-portable: path contains uppercase characters: base/sound/VO/video 4 warnings signal caught: Segmentation fault si_code 1 Trying to exit gracefully..Maybe someone know what is wrong with it and can help me.
So thats all for now, i wish you all a good time playing this great game. -- Steffen Pohle (stpohle@gmx.net)| _ x http://stpohle.bei.t-online.de | /#\/ BomberClone - The Clone of JabberID: stpohle@amessage.de ||###| DynaBlaster and Bomberman ICQ: 370965 Yahoo: stpohle | \#/ http://www.bomberclone.de MSN: stpohle@hotmail.com | |

OMG what an excellent port. I went and bought the game as soon as I heard. Everyone who likes this game should buy it, companies like ID need to be encouraged. I wish there was someway that ID could see exactlly how many people play this on Linux. Maybe that would generate some interest in other ports by other companies. The game is fantastic! After two hours last night my heart was pounding, my legs were weak and I may have to buy a new mouse (the fire button was making some nasty cracking noises). It is well worth following the advice from earlier posts, this game needs to be played with lights off (I kept a night light on since I'm a scaredy cat), and a pair of earphones or plugs. Thank you ID!!!! |

Looks good, plays boring posted by grumbel @ 83.135.70.236 on Oct 5 2004 5:54 AM | |
|
| The port looks good, easy to install easy to get to work and seems equally to the windows version when it comes to speed. Doom3 is technically really a '5 stars' game, however the whole gameplay gets boring pretty quickly since the whole game is basically the same from start to end, all levels look and play almost the same, which it kind of sad, since it contains quite some nice ideas such as the terminals and the sentry bots. Would they have concentrated a bit more on interaction with NPC (which you have, but only in the first 20mins of the game) added some outside walks on the surface of mars and in general some more varity in the gameplay it could easily be a 5star game, but since gameplay as it is, is just "yet another boring shooter" I only give it a 3. | |||

| I think it's kind of strange to see this title advertised with pictures of the now nowhere to be found bathroom scene. The final product differs from the leaked alpha by far. It's quite sad they took this one out. It was some kind of an instant classic. On the other side, the pinky is introduced in a much more heart pounding way now ;)
BTW: you won't see the pinky bursting through the pipes either, if all that spoilage is allowed here... |

| Curious about the performance compared to windows. Same, worse, better? And maybe the ram requirements would be a little lower on linux as people can run lighter windows managers. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The current ATI drivers don't work with it, so those of us with ATI cards have to wait longer still. ATI is apparently planning to fix this, let's hope they get things cleared up soon. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

| This is a great game, with awesome modding potential. Only drawback is that it requires a certain athmosphere to be more than just a run'n'gun.. You need to turn of the lights and fire up your 5.1 surround or at least a good set of earplugs, before you play, otherwise, you'll miss half the game. Multiplayer is restricted to 4 players.. guess is some leftover from the original doom they wanted to keep, but its cool. It's GREAT for sneaky 1on1's hidding in the shadows, and rocket jumping to great heights :) I'f you're not going to buy the game, at least get the demo and try it out. Otherwise you are really missing out on an experience and a great story, which is well told.(albeit, somewhat classic) - Styx | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
