Shit, the minumum requirements is 384mb of ram and I only have 256. Does this mean I wont even be able to get the game to run?

This says it will.

ya, u should be able to run it, like i said "experiment" like theres no tomorrow, i ended up getting a 105% FPS gain from that cachemegs tweak and another im currently playing around with. if anyone is interested just PM me and i&#39;ll gladly send the new tweak ur way (btw, the new tweak no allows me to basically keep it at 60-62 fps throughout the game, no matter how many enemies or detail, works like a charm, maybe i can get a job at iD )

like i said, change the vars around until u find the "perfect" setting, but sometimes it doesn&#39;t work as you can see for yourself if you head over to planetdoom forums. the "other tweak" you can try and see for yourself, it sure did do some miracles on my crappy comp:

note note note warning note&#33;&#33; these are Image Settings for 128mb Video Cards note, if you have 64mb card, replace 512 with 256 or a lower number, i&#39;m not sure wat the number is for 64mb cards, but experiment damn u&#33; also note where it says width and height, change to watever u want but make sure it&#39;s "selectable" in doom3 as in dont give random numbers, take "prefixed" ones like 640x480 or 800x600 etc etc

1) open up notepad and copy and paste this into it:

2) (COPY ALL BELOW THIS SENTENCE):


bind * "exec autoexec.cfg"

seta com_showFPS "1"

seta ui_showGun "1"

seta ui_autoReload "0"

seta ui_autoSwitch "1"

seta g_fov "100"


seta image_downSizeLimit "512"
seta image_ignoreHighQuality "1"
seta image_downSizeBumpLimit "512"
seta image_downSizeSpecularLimit "64"
seta image_downSizeBump "0"
seta image_downSizeSpecular "1"
seta image_downSize "1"
seta image_forceDownSize "1"
seta image_anisotropy "0"
seta image_filter "GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_NEAREST"


seta r_shadows "0"
seta r_skipbump "0"
seta r_skipspecular "1"
seta r_skipoverlays "0"
seta r_skipfoglights "0"
seta r_skippostprocess "1"
seta r_skipbendlights "0"
seta r_skipdynamictextures "0"

//u can change this to watever you want, this is my setting
seta r_customWidth "1024"
seta r_customHeight "768"


seta pm_runbob "0"
seta pm_runpitch "0"
seta pm_runroll "0"
seta pm_bobpitch "0"
seta pm_bobroll "0"
seta pm_bobup "0"
seta pm_crouchbob "0"
seta pm_walkbob "0"

3) don&#39;t copy this line or anything below it&#33;&#33;&#33; just the above portion. paste the code into notepad and save it as a cfg (config) file (use the dropdown thingy that says "save as type ". name the file watever u want, i like to call it performace.cfg (don&#39;t forget to add the extension .cfg or it wont work&#33;&#33;

4) run doom3 like normal, start up a level, bring down the console, and then type (note, replace performance with watever u named the cfg file):

exec performace.cfg (then hit enter) by the time u hit enter and if everything goes accordingly, it should say something like execing performance.cfg or something like that to acknowledge the process is underway (u SHOULDN&#39;T get an error, ur looking for a confirmation)

5) now, if you really want to (i recommend it), type vid_restart and hit enter

6) enjoy u lucky bastards, now, whos gonna gimme that cookie hope this helps&#33;

wow, ur in to it too much. "quit ur job"???

anyways, i give it:
12/10 for graphx
7.8/10 for storyline/gameplay

the gameplay is 2 straightforward shooting, but i think it&#39;s like that cuz the shooting is already pretty hard and fun.

lmao, graphics: 12/10 more like 15430.0935566783344 to the power of 21 multiplied by pi to the millionth decimal place, and don&#39;t forget to add 535.7 out of 10.

p.s., check out my tweak in the other thread about D3 configurations, gave me 105% fps boost

6) enjoy u lucky bastards, now, whos gonna gimme that cookie hope this helps&#33; it boosted my fps 105% always at 60-62 fps (don&#39;t ask me how i&#39;m getting 62 when it&#39;s capped at 60, i&#39;m scared too) now only if someone could tell me how to uncap it from 60 and recap it at say 70.
