| I checked out the Quake 2 source code when it was released. I was surprised how much game-specific code there was in the engine - stuff I would have assumed was in the customization dlls. It was a lot less generic than I expected. |

Yay!
I was just thinking the other day the kinds of rendering algorithms I want to add to this. In addition to iOS/Android support. 
My port is going to have a very different backend. 
So you're saying your code has a nicer ass?

Heh, because of consoles holding graphics back, doom 3 is far more comparable to current graphics than doom was when its source code was released.
I like to see source code releases like this, it gives budding developers (especially indy ones) a chance to see how others code this stuff and what tricks they used.
Yeah, as an educational tool for other developers I'm sure these kind of releases are invaluable. |

What are we going to do with it?
The first thing people are going to do with it is overhaul the graphics to include modern algorithms which will work with all the original game data! I own D3, D3RoE, both installed and can't wait! Of course, it'll take release +6 months before some enterprising hacker makes something truly great! 
Modern algorithms... so that D3 is even blacker than pitch black?
Also, why make something "truly great" if the game needs modern algorithms. For 99% of projects there's UDK, which is infinitely more modern. You do not get source code access, but the amount of projects needing that isn't huge. For those that do need it, well, there's this, or Unity (which is probably more advanced at this point), etc.
Look at DarkPlaces. I'm no expert but I'm sure there's a graphics geek out there who has similar ideas for Doom 3! Compare those to the original looks: here (scroll down for Windows screenshots). |
