Doom 3 windows 10 patch6/13/2023 ![]() ![]() I don't know how this affects the requirement for the CD-key that comes with the game. I've also heard all this at several other forums where I posted this script at.For the record - on Neowin somebody found that you can actually copy the contents of the three CDs to the harddrive manually to bypass the install completely:quote:Copy /setup/data/* from all cd's to /doom3/data/ located on your disk. There was alot of trouble on IRC related to this and we went through the same anti-win2k3 arguments that I'm seeing here. I think its cool that you made the effort to do this, dark.

However considering that ID is also "not supporting" Windows 2003 and the game works absolutely wonderful under that OS (personally tested by me) I would guess that there is a reasonably good chance it will also work under 9x after these modifications are made to the installer. this removes all OS install restrictions and allows to run the install directly from the MSI file instead of having to use installshield's setup.exe wrapper.The game may or may not work under 9x. However in terms of the Installer itself. I don't have any 9x boxes and I dont plan on ever having any ever again. Quote:Originally posted by BFG10K:Have you personally tested this? Because it could be that Doom III is using portions of the Win32 API that are NT only which means it _can't_ run on 9x/ME regardless of what you do the installer. I hope this helps somebody out there other than myself. After this you should be able to install and perhaps even play Doom 3 on any Windows compatible system you wish (though I doubt Windows NT 4.0 will even work and I somewhat doubt that 9x will either). ![]() After executing this you will need to integrate it into the CD or replace the MSI dumped to disk during an Admin network install of the package (setup.exe /A). Whatever way works for you works for me.ĭim argNum, argCount:argCount = ![]() 'and administratively copy all of the files to some directly - replace the resulting MSI file in that directory and then You can reburn a new CD replacing the old MSI file with this new one. 'MSI file that enables you to install it anywhere (even on win9x in theory). 'To execute this code save it into a VBS file. Remember the MSI file must NOT be opened by any process while this code is running. In an effort to combat this, I have written a VBScript that modifies the Windows Installer package "Doom 3.msi" provided on the CD and removes these restrictions.Below is the code:'Fixes Doom 3.msi file and allows it to install to Windows 2003 and allows you to run the MSI file directly. the other two have got a few people ticked off. While we all know that item 3 really isn't an issue as NT couldn't run this game anyway. Apparently the installer package for Doom III is setup to disallow install to a 1) Windows 2003 and 2) Windows 9x and 3) Windows NT 4.0. Wait several days for approval.Okay guys.
