Doom 3 SDK

[Santanya]

So, this probably has been answered, flame away if it has. Does anyone know when the SDK will be released for Doom 3? All I've seen so far is 'soon after the release'.

Am I the only one that 'soon' will never be soon enough? ;)

You can modify so much of game via the .def files :)

I think if you explore the def's you should be pretty busy till the SDK is in your hands.

So these def files is what controls the functions in the game?

The def files are fairly limiting unless you are looking for minor tweaks (ex. minor weapon changes)

In some ways you can do more major things with changing shaders (such as a so-so cell shader replacing the current light shader). But really can't do much at the moment.

Generally, yes, but there have been certain mods such as the unnamed "Flamethrower mod." (sorry, you'll have to search the forums for it)
