The full version of Doom 3 Redux 0.95b. This is a large-scale modification that attempts to polish and modernize Doom 3 while fully retaining its core gameplay.
This mod is made for the original Doom 3 (retail and Steam versions) only.
It is not compatible with the BFG Edition released in 2012.
====================================
Installation:
====================================
1.) Extract the "redux" folder into the game directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Doom 3
====================================
Loading the mod:
====================================
In order to play Doom 3 redux you need to launch the original game and load the mod trought the main menu. it's a relatively simple method but If you want to save time and load the mod directly each time you launch the game, here are the following steps:
//STEAM VERSION//
1.) Find DOOM 3 in your Steam game library, then click on "Properties" and select "SET LAUNCH OPTIONS"
2.) Put the following line in the empty field: +set fs_game redux
3.) The mod will now be loaded directly each time you launch the game trought Steam.
//RETAIL VERSION//
1.) Find your DOOM 3 shortcut or create a new one, then Right-click on it and select "Properties".
2.) Select the "shortcut" tab and put the following line at the end of the "target" field: +set fs_game redux
3.) The mod will now be loaded directly each time you launch the game trought the desktop.
====================================
AMD/ATI graphics cards users:
====================================
Out of the box, sikkmod is known to have some problems with systems that are equipped with an AMD/ATI GPU, which causes all sorts of visual glitches that can make the game unplayable. But as this is mostly due to a problem related to AMD drivers, it's relatively easy to fix, and I've been able to develop and play this mod with an AMD card (HD 7900 series) by following these steps:
1.) Go to the game directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Doom 3) and find "Doom3.exe"
2.) Make a new copy of this file with the following name: "Doom_3.exe"
3.) Right-click on "Doom_3.exe and select "Create shortcut"
4.) Move that shortcut to the desktop, then Right-click on it and select "properties".
5.) Click on the "Shortcut" tab and put the following line at the end of the "target" field:
+set fs_game redux
Example:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Doom 3\Doom_3.exe" +set fs_game redux
Using this custom shortcut, you will be able to play Doom 3: Redux on an AMD GPU without any issues. The only downside is that you won't be able to use the Steam overlay as the game is now being loaded outside of Steam.

Great great work of MOD
Finally! :)
If you are running on an AMD GPU, please visit this link:
Moddb.com
is this working with BFG or just with doom 3 vanilla ?
Vanilla Doom 3 only.
Nice!!!!
Another reason to play Doom 3 again
Thanks a lot dude and congratulations for the release!
Great work. I am going to replay the game after so many years.
Is it possible to add flashlight to shotgun, assault rifle, pistol and chain gun?
You would have to download a separate mod for that. They exist, though. You can find flashlight mods for all guns.
Will this ever be made for the BFG edition, or is it not possible. There aren't many mods for BFG, so it does get annoying. I'll probably just get the original version of Doom when this is closer to completion, but I would like to be able to save money if I can
It's not completely out of the question that I may one day make a version of the mod for the BFG edition, but I currently don't own it, the modding is said to be far more difficult on this version and the Sikkmod (Which is the absolute base for my mod thanks to the bugfixes and reorganized files it provide) is not compatible with it.
Ok, thanks for letting me know
As to whether you should get the original or not, Doom 4 will be released in less than a month now so I expect previous ID's titles will be on sales in the near future, including the original Doom 3 which already is pretty cheap.
The original really is the best version right now. The BFG Edition does have the advantage of having a 120FPS cap and a better widescreen support (The hud is not stretched in 16:9 unlike the original) but it's also a downgrade on many aspects.
Sorry I'm new to this(mods), but I honestly can't get the mod to work. I've extracted to the correct folder, but it won't show up in the "mods" section in-game. I've tried both the steam launch properties and the custom shortcut neither seem to work. The custom shortcut does appear to reset the game, but it's as if none of the mod files load.
Win7
Doom3 vanilla
The mod folder goes in steamapps/common/doom 3. where doom3.exe is located. If it's not showing up than you have it in the wrong folder.
Work it for RoE?
Nope, but a separated version for Resurrection of evil is planned.
Please, I want to play tested with Redux :)
i downloaded this to see if it would look better then sikk and it do and thats shockin cause i didnt think graphics could get better then that but with this it looks even better
Will you also be doing one for the Resurrection of evil Expansion?
Yes !
This mod won't let me get past the first level. When I enter the elevator and hit the 'click to exit Mars City' button, the game dumps me back at the main menu. Everything else has been fine. Any tips? Fantastic mod otherwise.
Using the Steam version of Doom 3 with a fresh install. No other mods.
Nevermind - I found the solution. I checked the console output when it dumped me back to the main menu and it was an OpenAL error. Disabling 'Enable EAX 4.0" under options fixes the problem. Windows 10.
one question. compatible with source ports?
Probably not, since Sikkmod has its own modified version of the source code, but if you can name interesting source ports to merge with sikkmod, I'll look into it.
seems to work
Is it just me, or the textures inside the elevators are still blurry? Anyway, nice work with HD UI!
i have random freezes when i move and open dors
Mod doesn't work, I have it in the steamapps/common/doom3 folder with the doom3.exe and it doesn't show when I hit mods at the main menu. Or when I set launch options with the what was posted above. It's in the same exact folder that my Doom Reborn mod is in, and that's in the mod list but redux isn't....nice
Have you extracted the "redux" folder (Not the files contained in it but folder itself) into the Doom 3 Directory ?
Yes I extracted the folder to my desktop then added it to my doom 3 folder. Then I think I tried it again straight to my doom 3 folder.
So it must be installed on the SSD (C:) or is it possible to get it to work on a Hard Drive (D:)?
It doesn't matter, really, as long as the redux folder is installed in the game directory.
When can we expect V1.0?
I have a Problem with this Mod wenn I Install this and Copy it too the Doom3 Folder.I Strat a new Game,I use Steam Version of the Game wenn I Start the game i have on the Menu Screen a Green Screen.
Where is Sikkmod options menu? How can I open it?
Not working for me, i did as the installing say and ... big error on win 10... i use AMD and i make what you say to do if use AMD... not working. I did is 2-3 times and... nothing... to bad... i will not do it again... is 100% sure is not working with AMD in win 10.
Good Mod! Thank for making...
Does this mod modify gameplay or only visuals and sound?
I had trouble running this with the E3 2002 shotgun.
Moddb.com
I installed the game into my directory of Doom 3, and had it work without an extra executable. When I picked up the shotgun, the ingame model did not appear. It only appeared when I had just stopped moving, and then it vanished again.
Then when I restarted the mod and loaded my save, it came up with a message of having different animations to the base shotgun, and it restarted the main menu with no music or sounds. When I tried to load my save again, it crashed.
I have tried loading different levels, moving where the file goes, and it still continues to show that message and then crash. I have gotten very frustrated, and so I am going to reinstall the game and see if it fixes it.
Don't work!
Doom crash at launch with redux mod (The program stopped working)!
Default Doom works normally.
How can I fix it?
I searched a solution everywhere but not works!
Win 7 64bit
Hello, strelok. Is there any way to disable the 60 FPS cap? I have a 144 Hz monitor and want to take full advantage of it. I already have v-sync disabled, so I don't think that's the issue.
Thanks in advance.
What is this mod supposed to do? I installed as directed and put the line in the icon to start with doom 3 start and I am still unable to switch from low res in the settings menu. There are no REAL instructions to use this mod. Am I supposed to change the settings first? I have the glitch that won't let you set the 1600x1200. Is there anything that must be done before installing. I put the file in the folder with the doom.exe, then I unzipped into that folder. It put a folder in there with the same name. All the files are in that folder. no new files in the doom3.exe folder. Is there an update for doom that I should install first? Why not give specific instructions.
OK I copied all files from Doom 3/Redux 0.95b folder into the doom3 folder, and now I get "wrong game DLL API version" when I try to load the mod. Any ideas what that is?
OK, googled the dll error and google lead me back here to the "DOOM 3 1.3.1 Fixed Patch v4.2". That fixed it. All works well now. Graphics are Much Better! Still got to get the flashlight mod.
Streloks I've been a big fan of your sounds used in your streloks mod, they are very high definition and make the game so much more better. You should actually include some of your sounds into the 1.0 version of redux. Also can't wait till you finish doing the rest of the PDAs.
Is there supposed to be no PDA animation when you bring up and put away the PDA? I am an AMD user.
Nevermind, I restarted the game and it works now, but I have a bigger problem. For some reason I can't overwrite saves and I have to make a new one every time unless I quicksave. Normal Doom 3 asks if you want to overwrite. Is this a bug?
Same problem here. I know you wrote this over a year ago but I was searching for an answer just now and found this comment :D Seems to only be related to this mod, then!
This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
Excellent work, probably the best graphic mod for Doom 3 that I've ever seen, but somehow I don't really like the change of weapon sounds. Can you make an update that all other things stick to the original except the upgrade of graphics which as you mentioned 'no gameplay changes'? Or is there a way to switch the modified sounds back to the original ones? Thank you.
