Don't bother with the video I linked you to. The guy playing is really crap at it.

Yea I found that after the other one. Going to check it out now :)

Hold TAB to view the players on the server and their scores.

27666 TCP & UDP (For Server) 27650 TCP & UDP (For MasterServer Heartbeat) You need to open the top one for the server to work. You need to open the bottom one for it to display on the list. So open both.

They want to play on the public servers with legit cd keys rather than play on private servers with the reloaded cd key If you ran the stealer then your cd key is already stolen. Re-installing isn't going to help you in any way at all. It's still more secure than just storing the key in the registry like most games do.

good stuff :)

hmm now my computer doesnt load the list either. My other computer loads the list but it finds like 40 lan servers which is wrong.

try pressing CTRL+ALT+~ at the main menu then typing: connect <serverip>

Yep its 931, in the voice message he told the guys to change the code to 901 and then he got an email if you check his messages from the IT Staff that say since there is no 0 they changed to a 3 for him. (Just a little insight)

Maybe it's beacuse the game has just come out. Try again now.

This may be a stupid question but what if you tried connect instead of ipconnect?

yea it's a great gameplay element

On broadband a good ping for doom3 is 170ms. You will have no chance playing on a 56k connection. Doom 3 is a broadband-only game.

See this thread for info: http://www.doomworld.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=26529

Did you not notice the :rolleyes: comment at the bottom of his message? He was ovbiously being sarcastic.

Yea but theres a difference between an offical and an unoffical mod. Look at CTF for Quake2!

You have broadband and you don't play games. What were you thinking! Go buy Counter-Strike and you won't be wasting your money on your connection. I don't see how you can lag on 54Mbps cable. The server you played on must have been pretty crap. I seen some people with pings of 170ms on a US server of course with me being in Australia I had an unplayable 700ms ping though. The MP is pretty awesome. I played a few hours at a LAN party. Lights Out is awesome in the dark, when Bucci used his flashlight I got him with a rocket :D

It isn't a mod that lets you play 32 players it's a program. This is how to do it with a vanilla install and no additional programs/modifications. Third Method added to first post now.

doomconfig.cfg can be overwritten by the game, autoexec.cfg can't. If you want to add stuff add it to the autoexec.cfg. If you go into console and type: writedoomconfig then you have overwritten any customizations to doomconfig.cfg but the autoexec.cfg remains untouched.

It's not that it's XBOX exclusive it's the fact that ID finished the SP game which was their main focus and released the game straight after that. It might've taken them 2 months or more to perfect the co-op part of the game and it had already taken them 4 years of development to get this game ready to ship. I wish they would make co-op and release it with a patch though!

haha I always prefer co-op mp games to single player games, sure you can discuss the game at school or over msn or whatever but it's not the same as you both experiencing it at the same time.

Alright you clicked this for a guide on how to play with more than 4 max players so here is your guide. METHOD ONE - AUTOEXEC.CFG Open up your Doom3 folder C:\Program Files\Doom 3 or in my case, E:\Program Files\Doom 3 Now go into the folder called base. If you see a file called autoexec.cfg then double click it and choose to open it with Notepad. If you do not see this file goto Start - Run and put into the box: notepad "C:\Program Files\Doom 3\base\autoexec.cfg" The quotation marks are important. You must put them in. It will ask you if you want to create the file autoexec.cfg. Pick Yes and you will have a blank notepad file (or if you opened the file from the folder your previous contents) In this Notepad window add the following line: set si_maxPlayers "10" Replace 10 with your deseried max players. METHOD TWO - CONSOLE Go into Doom and in the Main Menu press CTRL+ALT+(the key under escape). This will bring down the console. Type in the following line: set si_maxPlayers "10" Replace 10 with your deseried max players. Restart Doom 3 and then goto Multiplayer - Create Server. METHOD THREE - SHORTCUT Make a shortcut to Doom3.exe Right click it and choose properties. Where it says Target modify it to say this: "C:\Program Files\Doom 3\Doom3.exe" +set si_maxPlayers "10" Once again change the path to Doom3.exe and the 10 to whatever max players you want METHOD FOUR - BAT FILE Goto Start - Run and put into the box: notepad "C:\Program Files\Doom 3\Max Player Hack.bat" Click "Yes" to create the file and put this in the notepad window: @ECHO OFF start /HIGH Doom3.exe +set si_maxPlayers "10" Change the 10 to whatever max players you want. You may optionally remove the /HIGH which gives the process high priorty (More of your Memory + CPU go towards Doom3 while it's running for improved performance) You may make a shortcut to this bat file or like me just go into the folder and double click to play. I think that the maximum number you can get the max players to is 32. Anything higher is crazy anyway. I figured this out in no time at all since I like to look at cfg's and tweak them. I hope this helps you guys out.

The original doom used port 666 You need to have Administrator rights to bind to a port under 1000 now. Most of the UDP games use ports from 2000-3000 now (most in the 27*** range)
