<p><strong>dhewm3</strong> is a source port of the original Doom3 (<strong>not</strong> <em>Doom3 BFG</em>, for that you may want to try <a href="https://github.com/RobertBeckebans/RBDOOM-3-BFG/">RBDoom3BFG</a>). It's known to work on Windows, Linux, macOS, <a href="https://freebsd.org">FreeBSD</a>, <a href="https://openbsd.org">OpenBSD</a> and <a href="http://www.aros.org/">AROS</a>, but it should work (or be easily portable to) on any system that supports OpenGL 1.4 with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARB_assembly_language">ARB shaders</a>, <a href="http://libsdl.org">SDL</a> and <a href="http://openal.org">OpenAL</a>.<br />
Compared to the original version of Doom3, dhewm3 has many bugfixes, supports EAX-like sound effects on all operating systems and hardware (via <a href="http://openal-soft.org/">OpenAL Softs</a> EFX support), has better support for widescreen resolutions and it has 64bit support.<br />
It only supports <strong>old Mods</strong> if they <em>either</em> don't require their own game DLL <em>or</em> have been ported to dhewm3 - see the <a href="https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3-sdk">dhewm3 SDK</a> for more information.<br />
