Doom 3: Redux mod

I'm using this mod with Vanilla 1.3.1 off of Steam. I'm digging the high-res textures, models, and Alpha sounds but I don't know if the Sikkmod shaders are working because the shadows look virtually identical to the Vanilla base game. Does zpakSikkpinShaders.pk4 work with Redux 2.0 and Vanilla 1.3.1? If so, can the Sikkmod graphics settings be adjusted?

I think you should release DOOM 3 Tweaker App for modern 2021 Gaming Pcs to experience Doom 3 with next gen visuals, because it is really hard to configure Doom 3 properly in Config (nobody knows how to unlock game engine for proper Ultra Graphics experience maybe only IDTech developers). Even if you set everything at 4K and Ultra visuals in config it is still Not Optimized. I couple of times accidentally by playing with different Quake 4 and Doom3 commands configured it to look like it was a 2021 game - everything looked SUPER sharp and highly detailed even at distance it looked like everything was bumped up to SUPER HIGH Ultra+ Resolution (with MEGA Textures) and all models had very high polygon count, it also added an additional effects to the game: it had distorted refractive glass (prism) effects for glass and windows (especially beautiful effect for thick glass windows separating BASE from Mars atmosphere), air movement and heat effects from shooting guns (especially for plasma gun), explosion heat waves, shock waves effects, enhanced material textures - things will actually look like concrete, metal, glass, plastic etc.. I think all of those those were disabled left and forgotten in the game by the developers due to the hardware limitations at the time.. I completed couple of levels in and it really looked like it was a next gen game visually (you had to see it to believe it) and then I had to restart my pc and after that everything somehow got reset to a subpar quality and I could not reconfigure it to that level of quality again even setting everything in 4K and at max utra settings using known Config.cfg file tweaks. Maybe there is someone who knows the proper CONFIG configuration for because believe me when it was configured properly game looked SUPER AMAZING and 100 Times More Immersive. I hope someday we will find out how to configure Doom 3 properly and find out all of the hidden ID TECH 4 Engine capabilities so we could fully unlock DOOM 3 Graphics.

Hello !
I play Doom in French version but this mod makes me pass it in English for dialogues and audio PDA ... Could you tell me what I need to modify in order to keep the game in FR?

how do you use the alpha shotgun? i dont see it anywhere.

Is anyone else having issues with Arl's improvements not working all the way? Everything from that mod seems to work except its most appealing feature, THE NON-CRAB CLAW HANDS! Every NPC in the game still uses the vanilla arms and hands. Yes, I'm using the compatibility patch in conjunction with Arl's improvements. Otherwise the rest of that mods features wouldn't work.
