where can i find a doom 3 linux installer

i look high and low on the cds...
could not find any

I don't think there's any Linux installer yet. They've promised to release it soon though. Keep an eye on ID's page

rock on !!!

just got that game

KICKS ASSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish I could try that one, but my PC is a bit dated for it ... sniff... sniff... Guess I'll have to get the Xbox version instead

go to pricewatch.com

spend some money on a motherboard cpu ram and vidio card

you can spend like 250 bucks and easially be able to run doom 3

Thanks citrus!

That sounds fair enough . Actually, a better graphics card and a little more memory should do the trick. Sadly, I have a P4, and it uses Rambus memory, which is terribly expensive... . Big mistake getting a P4...

can't they release those stinking binaries

Funny thing though: when the first doom came out, I had such a crappy computer, so I could not run it. Today I've a hundred times faster computer (2.5 GHZ) and once again, I won't be able to run the newest Doom

my geforce fx 5600 does a pretty decent job

i think they are pretty cheap now

must have a agp slot tho

my friend has got a 2.5 ghz p4 with no agp slot so hes most likely SOL

I'll cruise by their office at lunch and ask them to release them today... I'll let you know how it goes

I am looking for Doom and Quake i downloaded quake and i cant get any versions to run one says i need libm.so.5 and stuff like that the rpm to install and run quake 2 says i need libvga.so.1 but i got it and it cant seem to find it. I am deperately trying to get either games for my laptop. Doom I just cant seem to find a url that still has it all of them lead to urls that dont exist or just give me the run around. can someone please point me on the right path. thanks

Hi there!

For Doom, try Doom Legacy(http://legacy.newdoom.com/). It's an enhanced version of Doom's engine, that supports mouse look, jump, Internet play, High Definition Textures and MD2 models. All with OpenGL mode and High Resolution and works with Doom, Doom 2, Final Doom, etc. Sure, you can play Doom classic without any of these modifications.

I could never get Doom to work with the so called "Linux Port", so I highly recommend you that. For Quake 2, same problem: Linux native part never worked. It runs without a single problem under WineX/Cedega though....

OK i got legacy to work but now my screen looks like it needs tunning with bars across it. Its so bad i cant make out anything. Quake I am still working on it but I dont want to try with it until i fix this screen problem. Has anyone had this problem before how can i fix it. I tried setting the config file for doom to 768* 1024 like my monitor is. This did not work. thankyou

try 1024 * 768

I tried it thanks for the tip but it didnt work. I read somewhere i think at planet doom or some forum that i needed to make sure that I was running x server becuase xdoom needs to be able to run to get the display to work right in doom. I dont know how or what to do next. also i cant use wine because for some reason my wine says that my path = c:\\windows is being read as path L="c:\\windows at the /etc/.wine/config file. I checked it and i cant find the error to fix it. should and can I just upgrade to WineX and where would I get it. thankyou
