dhewm3 โ the Doom 3 engine, no cap ๐
๐ธ SYNOPSIS ๐ธ
dhewm3 [options]
๐ฆ DESCRIPTION ๐ฆ
okay so dhewm3 is the game engine for the DOOM 3 game. That's the engine, bestie. The vibes. The whole machine that makes the game go. ๐
but โ and I need you to hear me on this โ to actually play the game you'll need the game data, and that game data cannot be distributed by Debian. So like, the engine is here, the actual game stuff is not. That's just how it is, fr fr. ๐ญ
also!! you have to patch your game data to version v1.3.1. Do not skip this step, I'm so serious. ๐
want the details on that, plus how to package the game data for local installation? Go read /usr/share/docs/dhewm3/README.Debian. It's all in there, iykyk ๐โจ
