Call for testers: dhewm3

[dhewg]

Heya,

I started poking at the DOOM3 source a while ago, with no idea what I'm ending up with...
It's still in its early stages, but I think I already got to a nice state which might be of interest of others.

So if anyone cares, I'm interested in feedback, testing, bug reports and fellow hackers to improve this code base.

I have compiled it without problem. The game starts to it's menu.
Sadly start a game does not work. Then i have tryed to start a map direct, that gives:

Are you trying to use custom assets?
Are all pk4 files present and up to date? See here

Doom -> Dewm, mixed with my nick. Just because of the lack of a better name.

The pk4-files came from the 3 cd set.

Edit: Now i have installed the files from patch 1.3.1 and the game seems to run now.

I started playing with wayland, and fixed/improved the SDL2 wayland video driver.

Since capturing videos with wl is a breeze (and we all love videos): preview

The video quality and FPS on Wayland is stunning. I have NEVER seen OpenGL-intense gaming (presumably on an open source graphics driver?!?) with such a smooth framerate on the free desktop. I think you've just hit a milestone, buddy. Major kudos to you!

I'll be trying to reproduce your results on Ivy Bridge shortly (this weekend).
