I stumbled across the following post on moddb: So I guess this question is, does this actually work? I have a legitimate copy of Doom 3 with TDM installed already so I haven't had a reason to try this. However, I'm curious as to whether this works at all, what issues may pop up attempting to do this, and if it does work would there would be any problems suggesting this to others.

So... What was up with the forums all day yesterday..?

I'm looking for a cheap, hand-held device that can play games based on the Doom engine and the many thousands of levels fans have made for these games. The GBA version was playable, but pretty terrible due to changed around music, no custom levels, and the GBA screen its self. Something like (Rockbox Doom on a Sansa Fuse) looks just beautiful. The screen has great color reproduction and the device is very small. The only problem with an mp3 player is that the controls are not meant for gaming. Most manufactures try and make a horrible copy of the clickwheel, which is also unsuitable for games like Doom. I have a Cowon D2, and tonight I tried to flash Rockbox onto the thing so I could get Doom running like in Again, great picture quality, but lousy controls. The installer didn't work though sadly. Got any suggestions? Basically, if I could have a Rockbox device with a D-pad and a decent screen for cheap, I would be in heaven.

I just replaced my old laptop and my new one is giving me troubles when I try to run Doom3 (gotta have that working before I can install darkmod right) I appologize for asking this here but I don't like Doom and I am not part of the doom community (I bought doom3 so I could play TDM). before we get too far here are my system specs: Toshiba qosmio X505 Intel Core i5 CPU m450 @ 2.4 GHz 4 GB RAM Windows 7 64-bit NVIDIA GTS 360M 1GB video card not too sure about the sound card I see something called connexant HD and NVIDIA Hi definition sound but I don't know if that means it's an integrated card or discrete. hopefully sound isn't the issue. . . any way I installed doom3 to C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM3 I took out the space doom likes to put between "doom" and "3" because I remember reading a while ago that the space there could cause issues with TDM. I also notice there is an empty file C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM 3 that was created with game install. the install seemed to work correctly, at least I did not get any error alerts and it said it was successfull but anytime I try to run Doom I get this error message very quickly: 2394 MHz Intel CPU with MMX & SSE & SSE2 & SSE3 & HTT 4016 MB System Memory 1024 MB Video Memory Winsock Initialized Hostname: Ian-PC IP: 192.168.2.4 doom using MMX & SSE & SSE2 & SSE3 for SIMD processing enabled Flush-To-Zero mode enabled Denormals-Are-Zero mode ------ Initializing File System ------ Current search path: C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM3/base C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM3\base\pak004.pk4 (5137 files) C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM3\base\pak003.pk4 (4676 files) C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM3\base\pak002.pk4 (6120 files) C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM3\base\pak001.pk4 (8972 files) C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM3\base\pak000.pk4 (2698 files) C:\Program Files (x86)\DOOM3\base\game00.pk4 (2 files) game DLL: 0x0 in pak: 0x0 file system initialized. -------------------------------------- ----- Initializing Decls ----- ------------------------------ ------- Initializing renderSystem -------- using ARB renderSystem renderSystem initialized. -------------------------------------- 4966 strings read from strings/english.lang Couldn't open journal files execing editor.cfg execing default.cfg couldn't exec DoomConfig.cfg couldn't exec autoexec.cfg 4966 strings read from strings/english.lang ----- Initializing Sound System ------ sound system initialized. -------------------------------------- ----- R_InitOpenGL ----- Initializing OpenGL subsystem ...registered window class ...registered fake window class ...initializing QGL ...calling LoadLibrary( 'opengl32' ): succeeded ...calling CDS: ok ...created window @ 0,0 (640x480) Initializing OpenGL driver ...getting DC: succeeded ...attempting to use stereo ...PIXELFORMAT 10 selected ...creating GL context: succeeded ...making context current: succeeded ------- Input Initialization ------- Initializing DirectInput... mouse: DirectInput initialized. keyboard: DirectInput initialized. ------------------------------------ sound: STEREO ...using GL_ARB_multitexture ...using GL_ARB_texture_env_combine ...using GL_ARB_texture_cube_map ...using GL_ARB_texture_env_dot3 ...using GL_ARB_texture_env_add ...using GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two ...using GL_ARB_texture_compression ...using GL_EXT_texture_filter_anisotropic maxTextureAnisotropy: 16.000000 ...using GL_1.4_texture_lod_bias X..GL_EXT_shared_texture_palette not found ...using GL_EXT_texture3D ...using GL_EXT_stencil_wrap ...using GL_NV_register_combiners ...using GL_EXT_stencil_two_side X..GL_ATI_fragment_shader not found ...using GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object ...using GL_ARB_vertex_program ...using GL_ARB_fragment_program ...using EXT_depth_bounds_test ---------- R_NV20_Init ---------- -------------------------------------------- ----- R200_Init ----- Not available. ---------- R_ARB2_Init ---------- Available.

How will he adjust to having no shotgun? Prepare to be impressed:

Hi guys, As a long term taffer I'm very happy that the team had the courage to start making TDM work as a standalone! I'm aware there must be plenty of work left, but I dare asking about one little (I hope) thing: It looks like half of the missions would already be playable ... if only torches would emit light. Any idea when this could be achieved ? Thanks.

Hi all. I'm trying to install TDM 1.06 to Doom 3 by 1C (it's a legal copy and I have the key, by the way). I've patched by Windows 1.31 patch that I found on wiki page. So, Doom itself works just fine, but when I switch to TDM it crashes - runtime error in doom3.exe. Any ideas? OS is Win7, however I can try to install Doom in Linux (I'll try). P.S: I can sit an hour or 2 by debugging this stuff, but it won't help at all - application is too big for hot patches by a man who had never read the sources. UPD: So, step-by-step patching made a deal. It works right now

Hello there. I installed TDM, applied patch and it wont start mission. Game is asking me for DOOM 3 CD key. I understand this game is using doom 3 engine but it is free, is it? I bought my doom 3 seven years ago and it never asked me cd key till now. I dug all my house upside down but i just cant find CD case. Can this be bypassed somehow?

Hi, I know that I've posted a few technical help questions on this forum about this before, but I really need some help. My doom3 copy is very "bugged". My Doom 3 is THE CORRECT 1.3.1 (BTW). Firstly. There is a doom 3 bug where corpses which are gibbed dissapear (as normal ). Then Reappear for a few seconds headless then dissapear. Secondly, Using most mods causes the crosshair to be positioned incorrectly. The bullet always hits the lower right of the crosshair. I use an ATI mobility 5730 card windows 7 x64 bit, for references. ATI CCC 10.7 Is this due to my faulty doom 3 CD? I've heard some people have this issue on the steam forums too. Thanks.
