Hi,

I have downloaded the Doom 3 alpha leak and applied the patch but when I run it I get a white screen and that’s it. I noticed that when extracting the .rar file the last file wouldn’t extract, it’s the one that ends with .demo

If sum1 could help and send me a link to where I can get this file or how to fix this prob that would b great.

Thanks

It works real good for me. Anyways you dont really need the patch, although it will make things a lot better. But dont try to play the alpha, you will only get 4 fps if you get lucky. Its not that fun at 4 fps... Anyways, you guys should be looking forward to Half-Life 2 since it will have about the same graphix...

What you have to do is look around and read. Don&#39;t expect to get spoonfeed-ed.
Here, went through the FTP download page and found it.
Can&#39;t assure you it&#39;s up and running and ready for you to snap it down at your max download speeds though. ;)

I had the Alpha for a while - I really doubt it will run on a geforce MX card - John Carmack publicly said the final release won&#39;t&#33; I have a Ti card and it ran like an absolute dog. It was interesting to see it, but not playable&#33;
