There is no leaked demo.
They're shots from the build shown at E3 or GDC.

In summary: It was leaked on Friday, (and was up on Sharereactor soon after :D), its the playable alpha that was shown at E3, its 381MB, and you'll probably need at least a Gf3.

Frankie, just how stupid are you?
First of all, you are being banned, for being incomprehensibly retarded.
Read my last post in this thread here (http://forums.overclockers.co.nz/showthread.php?s=&postid=41127#post41127) and you will see what you were asked to do.
It seems that using this wonderful thing called "email" is beyond your limited mental faculties.
Asking someone to ask me to unban you just reinforces how utterly stupid you are.
Stay off these forums, you are not welcome here now or ever again.

Guys, feel free to continue the discussion on the leaked Demo, but post no links on here to the actual file/s

from what i have heard on ther DC hub and MSN the alpha is eacacly that ALPHA and BUGGY some cant install it and some cant run it.. others just lock up after 10 frames in a game

NNA2m
03-11-2002, 05:20 PM
Lol...

Can't be as bad as the Unreal 2 E3 alpha...
One of the levels starts with an explosion that will freeze your PC for around 3 minutes...
(works out to around .005 fps :D)

I've had the leaked shakeycam video from E3 for ages but its not the nicest quality.
Bink would you mind forwarding it to someone going to L3?

Binky Stunt Cat
03-11-2002, 07:14 PM
there are a few things you need to do to get it to work...
Instructions:
1) Unrar it.
2) Edit RUNACT.CFG in the BASE folder, and delete the last line (DEVMAP line).
3) Launch doom3
4) at the main menu, press tilde (~) to bring down the console.
5) type: exec runact
6) wait 5 minutes.
7) type: exec default

then launch one of the levels.

map e3/intro
map e3/e3_1
map e3/e3_2
map e3/e3_3

or, if you want to run the bathroom scene on its own (small map, very fast), open up doom3/base/maps/fred/e3bathroom5.map in a text editor, and "SEARCH" to find the line that says: "call" "bathroom" and delete that line.
Then, once in doom3, just type

map fred/e3bathroom5

to load that map. Note - you may also want to edit the doomconfig.cfg file in BASE and change the r_fullscreen "0" to r_fullscreen "1" - its near the end of the file.
These are hypothetical instructions to run a copy of a game that doesnt exist :rolleyes:

well yes it is very buggy. i get repeating sound and random slowdowns quite often. also i noticed one of the monsters didn't attack me even after shooting it :p

still, it's very impressive and it's whet my appetite thats for sure :D

its so scary!

Mashed_Penguin
04-11-2002, 10:11 AM
It looks pretty damned cool, haven't been scared like that in a game for long time. The imps in the third map are so well done :D

Can't wait till this one is finished :)

Have a look at this site, It has quite a bit of info about the leaked demo, including console commands etc HTGK (http://www.htgk.org/modules.php?name=News&new_topic=48)

There is a rumour going round that the demo was leaked by Ati, be interesting to see if its confirmed.

dumass
04-11-2002, 10:33 AM
Aparrently it was a ATi employee that leaked it (slashdot said)

Grrr!!

:eek: :eek: :eek:

There's just about enough shots there to string them together into an AVI and re-make exactly the same demo as was seen @ E3!!

Nice! :)

Ooooohhh boy, I'm beginning to think I AM going to need to make some drastic upgrades sometime soon. Cos I SOOOOO want to be playing that!

Antallica
04-11-2002, 06:56 PM
True that KJ........ but I think I will have to flag the Radeon 8500 we talked about the other night :(. People think I should wait for NV30 to arrive so then prices will be better for me. But I want new vid now dammit!!!

*Tries not to look at pics* - it's too painfull....... no way my GF2 Ti's gonna be any good.

Elle T
04-11-2002, 07:04 PM
Just remember that the demo shown @ E3 & Quakecon were shown on a R300 (Radeon9700) at 800x600 getting around 30fps (Along side a Philips Acustic Edge & P4 2.2 were used)
No point buying a card now for D3 the only hope that might play it well is the NV30.
So hense me not buying a Ti4200.
Btw Gf3 is will be recommended minimum, Anything less and you'll be running @ 320x240 with all details off and get something horrible like 10-15fps.

HEHEHE, this is funny, i wasnt even going to post that link after seeing the link in the first post(i didnt visit it)... and then when i saw kj had replied heres me thinking id got flamed for posting another link to the same stuff.. hehehe oh well.. what can i say.. enjoy :D

I hope the weapons are as pretty as the monsters in those screenies.

When I use a mingun, I want to see my target disentegrate into a steaming pile of red goo, while hundreds of spent cases spill tinkling out onto the steel grating. Oh yeeeeah....

p01s0n_p1e
04-11-2002, 08:46 PM
damn straight [h]arls!

i also want some goddamn insanely high powered, traditional looking sniper rifle- ie, nothing fancy and digital on the model, just plain bolt action.
i also want it so high powered when i hit the target i HIT the target

*ques in game sequence of lead tearing into torso on one side and ripping out the back with little patches of blood and gore being blown out the back of the body onto wall/ground/ otherplayer...

ohhh yesssss :D

Well your completely out of luck then as D3 will only have Doom 1/2 weapons.
No Railgun or sniper rifle.

Meh, I can still melt the flesh off monsters with a meaty freaking plasma cannon in that case. :D

NNA2m
04-11-2002, 09:19 PM
Its a bit odd, but my favorite weapon in Doom1/2 was always the pump action shotgun.
Mmmmm... Tasty animation...:D

They'd damn well better include it. :D

Double Barrel pump was tops.

04-11-2002, 09:29 PM
the hell? how could you all overlook the brand (ass) spanking new....


BFG 10000!!!

that thing was possibly the cheapest pos in the entire game, you just fired it at a bunch of enemys, hit one, and even the guys behind you got spammed.

I CANT WAIT TO TRY MULTIPLAYER

I didn't mention it cause it's damn cheap.

Incase you didn't know Doom 3 is a remake on the original design for Doom that couldn't be done at the time.

oh that was with 2x AA and 8x af on as well its running about 20-30 fps on average when the monsters are there and being fired at it will drop to 5 ish

damnit- i read that whole thing and NONE of it made sense at all..
was it like, what they wanted doom to be? what it was sposed to be?
what it was but with a differant story line?

Elle T
04-11-2002, 11:49 PM
Thats the main design that Doom was ment to be but it evolved to something alot less complex.

Deviant
05-11-2002, 07:25 AM
I read here (http://www.overclockers.com/) that this guy was running a Ti4200 and P4 2.6GHz and was getting 30fps but doesn't say anymore than that.

Maybe it will be just playable witha Ti4200.

Mashed_Penguin
05-11-2002, 08:52 AM
You have to remember that (if it existed) that it is an alpha build and is in no way optimised for general setups. I wouldn't be supprised if the requirements become less strenuous by the time the game is released. It is still going to need some grunt to run though.

Oh and weapon wise there is a strong rumour going round that there is going to be a flamethrower.

mird-OC
05-11-2002, 10:18 AM
this brings back memories of when the original doom was first release... putting away at 6 fps on a 386... maybe 20 fps on a 486 :D

p01s0n_p1e
05-11-2002, 11:21 PM
well after all mird, they are rtying to remake the original...

i guess they just gotta keep up demands for today, damn i just realised- can you even begin to imagine what games will be like when doom 3 looks like doom does now? :eek:

05-11-2002, 11:42 PM
Im hoping that in 5-10 years, we'll have pain receptors built into whatever gaming devices we're using then.
So when I get shot in a game, I want to feel the bullets rip through my soft flesh, or if I get blown up, I want to feel like my legs are lying 2 meters away in a pool of blood.
Then you respawn, and your good to go again.

And hopefully it wont destroy your mind at the same time. :p

Join the army SAS core, but remember they just don't have the respawn thing quite right, but it the most realistic game I've seen yet.

Binky Stunt Cat
06-11-2002, 04:37 PM
actually, i found it ran sweet on mine... (dont know the fps command)
here's the trick: just load a map from the console without running anything else.

RockBoy
06-11-2002, 05:36 PM
Id do know, it was ATI

and binky com draw_fps 1 i think


RB

Mashed_Penguin
06-11-2002, 06:30 PM
It might be com_fps 1 if that dosen't work. There is a list of a couple o hundered console commands floating arround somewhere but I can't find it now.

Binky Stunt Cat
06-11-2002, 06:44 PM
com_drawfps 1
so yu both were half right :p
i get 27 fps tops...it fluctuates rather rapidly between 18 and 27 anyway....
thats with the e2 map...standing still at the start...

Jetboy
14-11-2002, 11:43 PM
yep just tried the com_drawfps 1 command and get around 30fps standing at the start of map 2 as well, have seen as low as 3 (autorifle vs zombie with lots of blood splatter and light effects from gun) to as high as 50 (standing at the door trying to work out the code 942 972?? or something like that forgot to write it down after I saw it on a website somewhere:( )

p.s running on XP2000 with 128mb 4200 and 512 DDR400
at res 1280x1024

few commands that might be helpful

add to config

bind F12 "give weapon_machinegun;give weapon_shotgun;give weapon_plasmagun;give weapon_bfg;give weapon_chainsaw;give weapon_rocketlauncher"

console

spawn monster_zombie_fat
spawn monster_zombie_commando
spawn monster_demon_demon
spawn monster_demon_imp
spawn monster_demon_bruiser
spawn monster_demon_mancubus
spawn char_scientist1
give weapon_flare
give ammo
NoClip

Alias zoom: The toggle command is a bit more powerful than the one u may remember in Quake 3. Instead of switching from value 0 to 1 the format is now [variable] [variable1] [variable2]

so a simple alias zoom > bind z "toggle cg_fov 120 40"

bind F4 "toggle pm_walkspeed 240 120"
or a number higher than 240 for faster running

just a few bits I've gleamed off the net

now if anyone has that damn code can they PM me with it and post it :-)
