Hey! I'm a huge fan of doom 3, and I was wondering, how would one go about learning the ropes of speedrunning it?

[@lekolega]

I am glad to hear that. If you wanna get into Doom 3 speedrunning, I will tell you what the OG runner Corpseflesh told me when I was starting: "Start with Lost Mission, which is the shortest campaign, then work your way up to the slightly longer Resurrection of Evil and then to the main campaign, which is the longest and thus hardest. Here is a tutorial video for the main campaign: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqrclWqkjceMn9k (Don't mind the 120fps bridge not being up in MC Underground, that is false info from me, I was wrong.) There is no tutorial video for Nightmare difficulty, so if you wanna do that, there are also runs you can watch for Soul Cube routing, either mine of Corpseflesh's. Other than that, you can also join the discord server and find useful info and ask questions there. There is a link to join on www.speedrun.com/doom3 Good luck learning and remember to have fun 🙂

[@Mcwatt_the_Black_Witch]

Nice run! never wouldve thought that doom 3 would get any particular amount of love from speedrunners, fun to see that it did also, in the description, you mention that you tried to make the game look like the og, and that there are "too bright" comments, are there major graphical differences between the og game and fresh installs of bfg edition?

[@lekolega]

@@Mcwatt_the_Black_Witch Thank you 🙂 Doom 3 gets love mostly by me nowadays. It is a nice speedrun but nobody wants to run it 🤷‍♂️ Everyone else who tried speedrunning it just never put in the time to get better. Except Corpseflesh. He is top tier. And maybe Draqu but he never puts in enough time to really get better. There are a few graphical differences between the OG game and BFG, nothing major. Mainly the BFG Edition is brighter, but I used to also brighten everything further through the console. An old habit from COD2 days to increase visibility.

[@lekolega]

Sorry, didn't see your comment until now. Doom 3 has strafe jumping and bunny hopping. It is mostly the same as in Quake 3 / Quake Live / Quake Champions so if you find any tutorial on how to do movement in those games, you can use it to learn the movement in Doom 3. I recommend this one. Rapha talks about "VQ3" movement, and that is the only one you need to know. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2bWoayiZrGFisUsi=Q8WsE1zSEabCp5Ck There is only 1 secret early weapon and it is the early BFG in Alpha Labs 1 and it is a part of this speedrunning tutorial. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqrclWqkjceMn9ksi=coYqdtAJrKHd_lyv Doom 3 is quite simple so there is no quick swapping or animation cancelling or any of the modern Doom games features. Just hit your shotgun shots, and if you are not sure they will hit, use the chainsaw. Abuse grenades as much as you can since they mostly instakill Imps and similar smaller demons, and also keep in mind that for a lot of demons you can hit headshots that do double the damage.

@@117swordsmen Generally it is better to play on more fps because the game runs smoother and is more responsive.

How'd you skip the intro in BFG Edition?

I skip cutscenes by using a sourceport called RBDOOM3BFG. Gameplay stays the same, just makes cutscenes skippable. However, I can't skip the intro since it is not a in-game cutscene but a video that plays. That is why the run basically starts at 28.4 seconds.

Nice Dev menu... surely that won't come with mods or script changes to the game... such as speeding up player model base speed or skipping cutscenes. Have yet to see someone do a Doom 3 speedrun using base game, and not modding it. Serious question, why is your player model (the doom guy) able to move so fast? (cause I had a speedrunner deny that they modded the game even though their player model was moving too fast, and I know cause I ran side by side and they outmatched me) Then they deleted my comment (or YT did bout I doubt that,) And yes I'm using the BFG edition. Why you so fast in the beginning (and don't say jump boosting, cause that doesn't explain the running, there's parts where you don't jump and are moving fast (only say cause that was the arguement the last "speedrunner" used

[@lekolega]

I dislike your accusatory attitude, but I will give you some info about the run anyways. The first thing to mention is that the people who actually speedrun a game come up with its speedrunning ruleset. That being said, even if you don't like something and consider something cheating, that is just your opinion. The main reason this run is played on a source port called RBDoom3BFG 1.2.0 is because you can skip cutscenes when you use it and that particular version is the most stable. Now, there are some graphical tweaks that you can do that you can't do in the normal BFG Edition (as far as I know) that don't alter the gameplay in any way. Those are mostly some HDR options and useless gfx tweaks that I don't even use because they make the game looks worse. Everything else is THE SAME as in the normal BFG Edition, including the player's movement speed values. The command for the main one, which is running speed is pm_runspeed and in the BFG Edition is has been increased by the developers to 275 instead of the default 220 in the original Doom 3 from 2004. Reference: github.com/RobertBeckebans/RBDOOM-3-BFG/blob/master/base/def/player.def (ctrl + f and look for pm_runspeed) (and yes, I could easily change this and increase my speed, but I am not a dirty cheater and no, there is no way to prove it unfortunately) Furthermore, I play on g_fov 120, which increases the player's field of view and that can give you the illusion of moving faster. This is surprisingly deceiving. Now, the BFG Edition also gives you the option to play on 120fps. I have bound 2 keys on my keyboard to switch running the game between 60fps and 120fps. I mostly play on 120fps because it is a much smoother experience, but I have to switch back to 60fps in some levels where I need to perform jumps on railings because the physics are a bit broken on more than 60fps and I tend to get sent downwards when jumping off railings and thus failing my jumps. (example: alpha labs 2 jumps @ 11:14) So, I mentioned physics being different on 60 and 120 fps. It is also different in the sense where when you land from a jump, you can get boosted forwards with more momentum. This does make me slightly faster, but only sometimes when I'm performing strafe jumps, which I kinda do throughout the whole game as much as I can, because it is obviously the fastest way to move. From what I have seen, I don't see any notable difference in pure movement speed without jumping from 120fps to 60fps. If there was any, the other speedrunner called Corpseflesh would not be able to beat my runs because he plays on 60fps ONLY. However, he has beaten me and with huge amounts of time saved. Look up his RoE and Lost Mission runs on the leaderboard on speedrun dot com. In Doom 3 there is also wall running, which is a movement technique that can give you a speed boost when running up against a wall. I use this sometimes, like in Caverns 1 here: 52:20. So, between all of these possible explanations, I hope you find your answer because that is all I can think of that is either making me faster or giving you the illusion of me being faster. PS I actually did do speedruns of the original games. It's just not as fun to run the original game because of the slower movement speed, less stamina and slow elevator doors. Both of the runs below were done on 60 fps (or whatever the default is in Doom 3, maybe 62, I don't even know) and without any source ports.
