A free and complete conversion for the Doom 3 game, inspired by the Thief series #Doom 3 conversion #Doom 3 game #First-person shooter #Doom 3 #Thief #FPS
The Dark Mod is a freely distributed, open source and multiplatform video game designed from the ground up as a total conversion of the amazing and extremely popular Doom 3 game that conquered the desktops and hearts of many computer users. In other words, The Dark Mod is a mod for Doom 3.
The project is not an entire game by itself, instead it is a collection of well crafted scripts that will turn a perfect and healthy Doom 3 installation into a spooky, dark and moody stealth game heavily inspired by the Thief game series created by Looking Glass Studios.
The Dark Mod features revamped gameplay, redesigned graphics, improved AI (Artificial Intelligence), better HUD (heads-up display) and more weapons, which allows Doom 3 fans to create entertaining missions in a gothic steampunk universe.
To install The Dark Mod on your GNU/Linux operating system, you will have to first create a folder called “darkmod” (without quotes) in your Home directory, download the Update Package using the dedicated download button above, and extract the contents of the ZIP archive on the darkmod folder.
Then, you will have to make the ‘tdm_update.linux’ file executable either by right clicking on it, go to Preferences, access the Permission tab and check the “Allow executing file as program” option or via the command-line using the ‘chmod’ command (e.g. chmod +x tdm_update.linux).
Run the ‘tdm_update.linux’ file in the terminal emulator or by double clicking on it. The program will automatically connect to the game’s mirrors and download all the game files for you. A ‘thedarkmod.x86’ binary file will appear on the darkmod folder, double-click on it to launch the game.
Please note that The Dark Mod has not been designed to work on 64-bit systems, which means that if you want to play it on your 64-bit GNU/Linux distribution you will have to install all the 32-bit compatibility libraries (they are usually called ia32-libs).
Currently, The Dark Mod is supported on all mainstream operating systems, including all GNU/Linux distributions, as well as the Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows OSes. It can be used on computers supporting either of the 32-bit or 64-bit instruction set architectures (see the section above for details on running The Dark Mod on 64-bit PCs).
What's new in The Dark Mod 2.02:
- This version includes a number of new features and bugfixes for The Dark Mod. Several exploits have been dealt with, such as a fix for the bunny-hop exploit by SteveL, and new behaviour that allows AI to notice if you blatantly grab onto a door they’re in the process of closing, by grayman.
- A fix of a sound bug that was causing sound to drop off too quickly in large spaces (resulting in AI frequently ignoring noise arrows and calls for help) has also been fixed by grayman, and a new AI Hearing slider has been added to the main menu.
- New Horizon has adjusted our blackjacking detection so that players are less likely to fail by being too close to an AI.
- AI may notice that they’ve been pickpocketed, and will add that to their evidence of an intruder if you cause a mild alert while snatching something from their belt.
