<p>Note that while the Doom3 source code has been released under GPL, you still need to legally own the game and provide dhewm3 the game data to play. See the <a href="#how-to-install">How to Install</a> section for more information.</p>

<p>A first Release Candidate of the upcoming 1.5.1 release is available!</p>
|
||||
<p>You can <strong><a href="https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/releases/tag/1.5.1_RC1">download it at Github</a></strong> (incl. builds for Windows and 64bit Linux)</p>

|

<p><strong>Changes since 1.5.0:</strong></p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>The (Windows-only) integrated <strong>editing tools</strong> of Doom3 are back!
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>They can only be built with non-Express versions of Visual Studio (tested Community Editions of VS2013 and VS2017) and can be disabled via CMake</li>
|
||||
<li>Official dhewm3 Windows binaries are built with tools enabled, of course.</li>
|
||||
<li>Only supports 32bit builds, because in contrast to the rest of dhewm3's code, the tool code is not 64bit compatible at all.</li>
|
||||
<li>Based on Code from the dhewm3 branch of SteelStorm2, thanks to <em>Motorsep</em> for donating that code!</li>
|
||||
<li>Has some bugfixes over the state in Doom3 1.3.1, like selecting a material in the Particle Editor doesn't break the viewport of the game any more.</li>
|
||||
</ul></li>
|
||||
<li>While prior dhewm3 releases for Windows have been built with Visual Studio 2010, this is built with Visual Studio 2017, so if it doesn't start on your system make sure you have <a href="https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads">the Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable</a> installed - but chances are good you already have it.
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Also updated some DLLs that are bundled with the Windows release:<br />
|
||||
<a href="https://libsdl.org">SDL2 2.0.12</a>, <a href="https://openal-soft.org/">OpenAL-soft 1.20.1</a> and <a href="https://curl.haxx.se">curl 7.70.0</a></li>

</ul></li>
|
||||
<li>Several sound-related bugfixes:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Lags in starting to play a sound which for example caused the machinegun or plasmagun sounds to stutter have been eliminated (<a href="https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/141">#141</a>)</li>

<li>Trying to reset disconnected OpenAL devices, this esp. helps with display audio on Intel GPUs on Windows, when switching to fullscreen (<a href="https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/209">#209</a>)</li>

<li>Looping .wav sounds with leadin now work (<a href="https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/291">#291</a>)</li>

<li>The game still works if no sound devices are available at all (<a href="https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/292">#292</a>)</li>
|

<li>Make "idSoundCache: error unloading data from OpenAL hardware buffer" a Warning instead of an Error so it doesn't terminate game (by <em>Corey O'Connor</em>, <a href="https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/pull/235">#235</a>)</li>

Note that you <strong>don't need the patches</strong> of the fullversion, adding their pk4s when using Demo gamedata breaks the game.</p>

#### 2020-07-13: _dhewm3 1.5.1 Release Candidate 1_
|
||||
|
||||
A first Release Candidate of the upcoming 1.5.1 release is available!
|
||||
|
||||
You can **[download it at Github](https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/releases/tag/1.5.1_RC1)** (incl. builds for Windows and 64bit Linux)

|
||||
|
||||
**Changes since 1.5.0:**
|
||||
|
||||
* The (Windows-only) integrated **editing tools** of Doom3 are back!
|
||||
- They can only be built with non-Express versions of Visual Studio (tested Community Editions of
|
||||
VS2013 and VS2017) and can be disabled via CMake
|
||||
- Official dhewm3 Windows binaries are built with tools enabled, of course.
|
||||
- Only supports 32bit builds, because in contrast to the rest of dhewm3's code, the tool code is not 64bit compatible at all.
|
||||
- Based on Code from the dhewm3 branch of SteelStorm2, thanks to *Motorsep* for donating that code!
|
||||
- Has some bugfixes over the state in Doom3 1.3.1, like selecting a material in the Particle Editor
|
||||
doesn't break the viewport of the game any more.
|
||||
* While prior dhewm3 releases for Windows have been built with Visual Studio 2010,
|
||||
this is built with Visual Studio 2017, so if it doesn't start on your system make sure you
|
||||
have [the Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads)
|
||||
installed - but chances are good you already have it.
|
||||
- Also updated some DLLs that are bundled with the Windows release:
|
||||
[SDL2 2.0.12](https://libsdl.org), [OpenAL-soft 1.20.1](https://openal-soft.org/) and [curl 7.70.0](https://curl.haxx.se)
|
||||
* dhewm3 now supports the **Doom3 Demo** gamedata
|
||||
- See [below](#using-the-doom3-demo-gamedata) for installation instructions
|
||||
- This is based on *Gabriel Cuvillier's* code for [D3Wasm](http://www.continuation-labs.com/projects/d3wasm/),
|
||||
which ports dhewm3 to web browsers, thanks!
|
||||
* Several sound-related bugfixes:
|
||||
- Lags in starting to play a sound which for example caused the machinegun or plasmagun sounds
|
||||
to stutter have been eliminated ([#141](https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/141))
|
||||
- Trying to reset disconnected OpenAL devices, this esp. helps with display audio on Intel GPUs
|
||||
on Windows, when switching to fullscreen ([#209](https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/209))
|
||||
- Looping .wav sounds with leadin now work ([#291](https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/291))
|
||||
- The game still works if no sound devices are available at all ([#292](https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/issues/292))
|
||||
- Make "idSoundCache: error unloading data from OpenAL hardware buffer" a Warning
|
||||
instead of an Error so it doesn't terminate game (by *Corey O'Connor*, [#235](https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/pull/235))
|
||||
* Restore "Carmack's Reverse" Z-Fail stencil shadows; use `glStencilOpSeparate()` if available
|
||||
- That bloody patent finally expired last October: [https://patents.google.com/patent/US6384822B1/en](https://patents.google.com/patent/US6384822B1/en)
|
||||
- This neither seems to make a visual nor performance difference on any hardware I tried
|
||||
(including Raspberry Pi 4), so this is mostly out of principle
|
||||
- Based on Code by [*Leith Bade*](https://github.com/ljbade/doom3.gpl/commit/d4de024341e79e0ac1dfb54fb528859f8ccea605)
|
||||

|
||||
- The `r_useCarmacksReverse` and `r_useStencilOpSeparate` CVars allow switching both things
|
||||
on/off for comparison
|
||||
* New CVar `g_hitEffect`: If set to `0`, the player camera damage effects (like double-vision and extreme tilt)
|
||||
when being hit are disabled (by *dobosken*, [#279](https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3/pull/279)).
|
||||
* (On Windows) stdout.txt and stderr.txt are not saved next to the binary anymore, but in `My Documents/My Games/dhewm3/`,
|
||||
like save games, because the binary dir might not be writable and dhewm3 wouldn't start properly then
|
||||
* Registering multiplayer servers at id's master-server fixed, so they can be found in the multiplayer menu

On **Windows**, *just install* it and copy the game data from there (see above for what files are needed).

On **Linux/OSX** unfortunately you can't just install the game (unless you run Windows Steam in Wine),
|

because it's Windows-only on Steam.
|

Same on **Linux**, thanks to Steam Play / Proton, though you might have to enable it:
|
||||
In Steam in the `Steam` ➔ `Settings` menu, under `Steam Play`, check both:
|

|

> ☑ Enable Steam Play for supported titles
|

> ☑ Enable Steam Play for all other titles

On **macOS** unfortunately you can't just install the game (unless you run Windows Steam in Wine),
|

because it's Windows-only on Steam and Steam (currently?) doesn't use Proton on Mac.

However, you can still download it with **[SteamCMD](https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD)**.

By the way, that number is the "AppID" of Doom3/RoE; if you wanna use this to

### Using the Doom3 Demo gamedata
|
||||
|
||||
First you need to download the Doom3 Demo, of course.
|
||||
|
||||
For **Windows**, you can get [D3Demo.exe at Fileplanet](https://www.fileplanet.com/archive/p-15998/DOOM-3-Demo)
|
||||
and just run the installer.
|
||||
|
||||
For **Linux** (and **other operating systems** that have a POSIX-compatible shell and `tar`)
|
||||
you can download [doom3-linux-1.1.1286-demo.x86.run from Holarse](https://files.holarse-linuxgaming.de/native/Spiele/Doom%203/Demo/doom3-linux-1.1.1286-demo.x86.run)
|
||||
or some other page that has that file.
|
||||
Then you can extract the relevant file from the .run installer with
|
||||
|
||||
> `sh doom3-linux-1.1.1286-demo.x86.run --tar xf demo/`
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
You'll need `demo/demo00.pk4` for playing, either in exactly that directory, or you can copy it into `base/`.
|
||||
Note that you **don't need the patches** of the fullversion, adding their pk4s when using Demo gamedata breaks the game.
|
||||
|
||||
`demo00.pk4` has a size of 462MB but for some reason there seem to be minimal differences between the one
|
||||
for Linux and Windows, so they have different md5sums:
|
||||
<pre><code>Windows : md5sum bd410abbb649b9512d65b794869df9fe size 483534533 Bytes</code>
|
||||
<code>Linux : md5sum 70c2c63ef1190158f1ebd6c255b22d8e size 483535485 Bytes</code></pre>
|
||||
|
||||
Both work on all platforms though, I guess the differences come from the Linux demo
|
||||
having been released two months after the Demo for Windows.
