Is it possible to have DOOM 3 run in 16-bit color, to increase performance?

doing this would fuck up everything mainly because it's dependent on at least a 32bit zbuffer.

You likely wouldn't see much performance increase from that anyway, if any. Accesses to the framebuffer would no longer be DWORD-aligned and that alone may carry penalties (although since they're word-aligned, maybe not). It would look like crap at any rate ^_^

There's like 20 other things that can be done to boost framerate, anyway.
