SpaceMSpiff Posted June 14, 2002 Well, i've heard a lot about the new doom3 and my questions have sparked in my mind.. Some like, will there be add-on stuff like in half-life? Will it comeout for Xbox or ps2, And one of my most intresting things i'm intrested in is will it come with a doom3editor to creat your own levels. I still don't think that it will, so what do you think is should have? SPACEMSPIFF 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted June 14, 2002 Doom III will come with the editor, an enhanced version of Robert Duffy's QeRadiant. It shares the same executable as the game, so apparently you can swap between 2D and 3D modes in just a few seconds, the time it takes to BSP the level. Plus, the game should come with the normal maps, model and geometry exporter for either MAX/Maya/Lightwave or even all of them. The possibility of an expansion depends on the sales of the game, so we can't quite tell yet. A PS2 port is downright impossible, while a X-box port is more like it. However, it will probably sport dumbed-down textures and a heavy fragmentation of the levels. 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted June 14, 2002 Personally, I hope there'll be a missionpack. Quake 2 had some really sweet mission packs imo (especially The Reckoning). And if we're lucky, the mission pack(s) will turn out great. 0 Share this post Link to post

I think you mean *really* dumbed down =) Lets see...X box has a 64MB unified system buffer. GF3 64MB dedicated frame buffer, GF4 Ti's have 128MB dedicated frame buffers. I wonder just how much dumbing down they would have to do before it wouldn't be worth it anymore =) Now I realize that the TV resolution is lower than a PC resolution, but I'd expect that Doom 3 on a PC would use up at least 64MB of system ram, which byt itself would completely suck up the X-Box's resources not even counting the graphics. 0 Share this post Link to post

GiXeLz Posted June 27, 2002 I am sure Carmack is coding the engine with modability in mind. It makes development easier by allowing everybody to work more isolated from eachother. 0 Share this post Link to post
