"VelociREAL Ultimate" Doom 3 Modification is now released!



Hello Fellow Doom Fans! =D


I have finally completed my Doom 3 Graphics Modification!

The goal of the Mod is to make Doom 3 more alive and a more realistic game by adding modern (2012) graphics, high resolution textures and realistic weapon sound effects into the game. 

The "Core"  is now driven by DoF and HDR with HD Textures, the result is amazing and can't really be seen in a video and/or screenshots, you need to play the game! 

The game should now be played at high resolutions (1920x1080 and higher) with high FSAA (4x or higher) for maximum immersion. 

It is hard to believe now that the game was first released in 2004! it almost looks and feel like a modern FPS game! :O

Veloci = Stands for Velocity aka Weapon Velocity
REAL = Stands for Realism With awesome effects like Depth Of Field and High Dynamic Range
Ultimate = Ultimate Experience

The Modification includes:

* Modern Graphics (DoF and HDR is activated by default)
* Sikkmod v1.2 (Awesome GFX Mod made by Sikkpin)
* HD Textures (Awesome HD Textures made by Wulfen1)
* HD Main Menu and Fonts (Made by 6th Venom)
* New Weapon Models (Pistol AND Machinegun)
* New Weapon Sound Effects (Sikkmod)
* New Main Theme Title Music (deactivated by default)

*To gain access to Sikkmod graphics settings and new main theme title music, Just remove or move the 2 files: VenomDoomIcons.dll AND zpakv00 from Mod folder AND then start Doom 3 and you will have full access to the Sikkmod graphics settings ingame, after you are done with your custom changes simply put the VenomDoomIcons.dll AND zpakv00 back in the mod folder. 


The Modification supports:

* DoF
* HDR
* SSAO
* Bloom
* Soft Shadows
* Motion Blur
* HD Textures
* And More!

I have spent quite some time tweaking the .cfg file and ingame testing. I have also optimized the mod (GTX 460)

My Mod is powered by: 

"Sikkmod" v1.2 made by Sikkpin

(sikkpin@hotmail.com)

(BIG credits to Sikkpin for this amazing Doom 3 Modification!)

Mod Installation:

Simply extract the "VelociREAL Ultimate.rar" File into your Doom 3 main directory. Do NOT place it in the "base" folder. 

Example with Mod installed correct: 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Doom 3\VelociREAL

The mod can be loaded in two ways.

1) Is to load it through the "Mods" main menu item.
 
2) **First RENAME the mod folder to "VelociREAL" only** Second is to use a custom shortcut to load it directly. You do this by creating a new shortcut for your "Doom3.exe". Right-click on it and select "Properties". Click on the "Shortcut" tab and in the "Target:" field put this:

    +set fs_game
VelociREAL

   after "...\Doom3.exe"
 
Example: "C:\Games\Doom 3\Doom3.exe" +set fs_game VelociREAL

I recommend you use step 2 to load the Mod.

** Important Notice: Doom 3 must be version 1.3.1! **


The Mod works with "Doom 3" ONLY and NOT "Resurrection of Evil" AND it should work with both STEAM and RETAIL Editions of Doom 3 but NOT the BFG Edition or at least not yet.

** My Mod is now Hosted on NEW File Sharing Service! **
