dhewm 3 is a Doom 3 GPL source port, known to work on at least Windows, Linux, macOS and FreeBSD.
The goal of dhewm 3 is bring DOOM 3 with the help of SDL to all suitable platforms.
Bugs present in the original DOOM 3 will be fixed (when identified) without altering the original gameplay.

Compared to the original DOOM 3, the changes of dhewm 3 worth mentioning are:
- 64-bit port
- SDL for low-level OS support, OpenGL and input handling
- OpenAL for audio output, all OS-specific audio backends are gone
- OpenAL EFX for EAX reverb effects (read: EAX-like sound effects on all platforms/hardware)
- Better support for widescreen (and arbitrary display resolutions)
- A portable build system based on CMake
- (Cross-)compilation with MinGW-w64
See Changelog.md for a more complete changelog.
This source release does not contain any game data, the game data is still covered by the original EULA and must be obeyed as usual.
You must patch the game to the latest version (1.3.1). See the FAQ for details, including how to get the game data from Steam on Linux or OSX.
Note that Doom 3 and Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil are available from the Steam Store at
http://store.steampowered.com/app/9050/
http://store.steampowered.com/app/9070/
Note that Steam does not offer the Resurrection of Evil addon for German customers (or at least people with German IP adresses).
The build system is based on CMake: http://cmake.org/
Required libraries are not part of the tree. These are:
- zlib
- OpenAL (OpenAL Soft required, Creative's and Apple's versions are made of fail)
- SDL v1.2 or 2.0 (2.0 recommended)
- libcurl (optional, required for server downloads)
- Optionally, on non-Windows: libbacktrace (usually linked statically)
- sometimes (e.g. on debian-based distros like Ubuntu) it's part of libgcc (=> always available), sometimes (e.g. Arch Linux, openSUSE) it's in a separate package
- If this is available, dhewm3 prints more useful backtraces if it crashes
For UNIX-like systems, these libraries need to be installed (including the developer files). It is recommended to use the software management tools of your OS (apt, dnf, portage, BSD ports, Homebrew for macOS, ...).
For Windows, there are three options:
- Use the provided binaries (recommended, see below)
- Compile these libraries yourself
- Use vcpkg to install the dependencies
- Remember to set
CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILEas described in their Getting Started Guide
- Remember to set
Create a distinct build folder outside of this source repository and issue the cmake command there, pointing it at the neo/ folder from this repository:
cmake /path/to/repository/neo
macOS users need to point CMake at OpenAL Soft (better solutions welcome):
cmake -DOPENAL_LIBRARY=/usr/local/opt/openal-soft/lib/libopenal.dylib -DOPENAL_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/local/opt/openal-soft/include /path/to/repository/neo
Newer versions of Homebrew install openal-soft to another directory, so use this instead:
cmake -DOPENAL_LIBRARY="/opt/homebrew/opt/openal-soft/lib/libopenal.dylib" -DOPENAL_INCLUDE_DIR="/opt/homebrew/opt/openal-soft/include" /path/to/repo/neo
Get a clone of the latest binaries here: https://github.com/dhewm/dhewm3-libs
There are two subfolders:
- 32-bit binaries are located in
i686-w64-mingw32 - 64-bit binaries are located in
x86_64-w64-mingw32
Issue the appropriate command from the build folder, for example:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 10" -DDHEWM3LIBS=/path/to/dhewm3-libs/i686-w64-mingw32 /path/to/repository/neo
cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" -DDHEWM3LIBS=/path/to/dhewm3-libs/x86_64-w64-mingw32 /path/to/repository/neo
The binaries are compatible with MinGW-w64 and all MSVC versions.
For cross-compiling, a CMake Toolchain file is required.
For the MinGW-w64 toolchain i686-w64-mingw32 on Ubuntu 12.04, it looks like:
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME Windows)
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR i686)
set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER i686-w64-mingw32-gcc)
set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER i686-w64-mingw32-g++)
set(CMAKE_RC_COMPILER i686-w64-mingw32-windres)
set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH /usr/i686-w64-mingw32)
set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PROGRAM NEVER)
set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_LIBRARY ONLY)
set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_INCLUDE ONLY)
Then point CMake at your toolchain file: cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=/path/to/Toolchain.cmake -DDHEWM3LIBS=/path/to/dhewm3-libs/i686-w64-mingw32 /path/to/repository/neo
If you want to build for x86_64 aka AMD64 aka x64, replace all instances of i686 in the toolchain file with x86_64.
The Doom 3 GPL source code release did not include functionality enabling rendering of stencil shadows via the "depth fail" method, a functionality commonly known as "Carmack's Reverse".
It has been restored in dhewm3 1.5.1 after Creative Labs' patent finally expired.
Note that this did not change the visual appearance of the game, and didn't seem to make a noticeable performance difference (on halfway-recent hardware) either.
The code for our Maya export plugin is included, if you are a Maya licensee you can obtain the SDK from Autodesk.
