This Slashdot
post from John Carmack (thanks shul and Frans) offers his reflections on the
release of DOOM 3, as he proudly says: "I think it is the best game we have ever
made, and it exceeded all of my expectations."
A subsequent
reply from the id Software lead programmer on the subject of the OpenSource
release of Quake III Arena, states: "By the end of the year. There are still a
lot of higher priority things, but it is coming soon. Hopefully punkbuster will
keep the source release from having any negative impact on the player
community." Here's a bit more from the first post on id's near-future roadmap:
Amidst all the various Doom ports and expansions, we are starting up on
our next game. It will have a new rendering engine, which will be keeping me
busy for a while, but the only other thing we are saying for now is that it
won't be a sequel to any of our previous work. We have a really solid team that
did a lot of maturing through Doom's development, so I have high hopes that it
won't be another four year odyssey.

I HIGHLY recommend that you double check that : com_videoRam
is set to the ammount of ram present on your GFX card, and force it to such in your autoexec.cfg, checked mine at one point and it had somehow been reset back to 64mb, half my gfx cards ram.
the 'autodetect' option in the system menu shoudl set it correctly, but u don't want to be running that all the time to be sure it's settup right do you..
as for muzzleflash, projectilelights and playershadow, many peoples autodetected settings are setting those to 0 for single player, which is a real shame esp with muzzleflash and projectile lights erally effecting how well you can shoot in the dark, and the effect of imps showing up and chucking fireballs at you, you can actually see them, not jsut the ball... MUCH more relaistic too.
it's jstu a shame that nothing seems to enable dynamic lgihts on your own plasma projectiles... :o/
