 Nightmare Mod
 Posted by Darren 'Doom Dude' Finch at 10:08 PM
Category: DOOM

Over on Doom 3 Files the featured mod is the NightMare Mod (v0.4 Alpha) which is designed for Doom 3. Last time I mentioned this mod it wasn't released yet.
If you're after a download that will increase the scare-factor of your Doom III game, then look no further! This mod has been in production almost as long as Doom III has been out, and it shows, the eye-candy of the NightMare Mod is something that has to be seen...and more importantly, played to be appreciated!
That is all on Doom 3 Files.

Category: DOOM

Dafama2K7 released MaxGfx (v1.2) which is one of those mods that tweaks the various graphics in Doom 3.
i was lookig a long time for a modification which contains the best visual,sound,gameplay effects for the game, but i didn't find it! so i decided to make it by myself. i've tested nearly every mod which was published and took the best in my opinion together. This is the result of it.
This version includes parallax shaders, fixed flashlight, changed zombie heads and skins and other stuff. That mod is available thanks to Doom 3 Files.

If you hit Gamasutra they have a small interview posted where they talk to John Carmack about the state of PC gaming.

 Posted by Darren 'Doom Dude' Finch at 8:41 AM
Category: DOOM

Mr Rocket finished his latest deathmatch level and unleashed it so we all could kill each other in a frenzy of Doom.
I called it Megadeth because I was listening to the band "Megadeth" almost the whole time I was creating it. ;) It's a medium size map, sort of a arena/castle type of layout, and (very red in color).
So go forth and grab Megadeth over on The Megasphere.

 Karthik Checks Out ReX's Latest Work
 Posted by Darren 'Doom Dude' Finch at 9:30 AM
Category: DOOM

Go on over to karthik82 because crazy cool Karthik went and checked out ReX's From the Ashes of Fear and here is a snip of what he has to say about it:
It's a pretty big map and has lots of large, open areas and some dark, claustrophobic areas. I love the way he used lighting to create atmosphere (one of the screenshots above, for example), and the greyish tech-base look I would say is "typical" of ReX (rather, it's what I associate with his work, from whatever levels of his I've played).
Check out the rest of what Karthik has to say right here.
