'Official' DOOM 3 Thread

[Tjboatboy]

Hi,
I am trying to play Doom 3 on my laptop.
E machine 2400 athlon xp 512 pc2100
64 mb shared for memory Ati Radeon.
They have said on this forum that if you use winrar to decompress the files that the game can run smoother.
Is this possible??
At this point the mouse is really slow and the game is really framey.
any help would be appreciated.
Plus how do I convert the cd's to one DVD and where do I get a cracked .MSI file.
Thanks,
Tj

Yes, but don't expect and super performaces. I don't know for sure, but my guess is that it wouldn't run faster, just less studdering when you open doors and other random pauses during gameplay.

You don't need a patch or anything. I put mine onto a dvd. It was stated in a thread. ALl you have to do is open the msi file, look for "DOOM3_2" and "DOOM3_3", then change them to say "DOOM3_1". Then just name your volume label DOOM3_1 when you burn.
