DOOM 3 Duct Tape Mod [Aug 06, 2004, 10:02 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A quickie Duct Tape modification
for DOOM 3 is now available. The mod addresses the absence of this essential
tool and provides the ability to attach your flashlight to your machine gun.
If your game has been suffering from stuttering when you go around corners, enter new sections, etc (the so called texture trashing), when your computer goes to 1 frame per 18 seconds, and your harddrive sounds like it might explode, try this :

It works like a fucking charm. Downside is that your install footprint swells to ~4 Gig, but hey, it's become a MUCH smoother playing experience. My processor has enough to do without having to unpack all that crap while in game.

Edit : Note, after doing this, for some reason a few modifications you may have made to your DoomConfig.cfg file seem to be undone. My seta r_displayRefresh "85" had somehow been removed. So make sure to check that.
Also, another thing you could do to maybe increase your framerate a little if you are playing on High Detail, is to modify the line
seta image_anisotropy "8"
I currently have it at "4". It SEEMS to be a tad faster this way, but not really sure. I can't see any difference in the IQ, but then I've never been able to tell the difference between AFx4 and x8.
