PDA and video disc map

There a hidden map that can be accessed through the console. This map contains all the PDAs and Video Discs from the game. You will start out in a hallway. As you walk down the hallway you will see PDAs and Video Discs. You can pick them up and listen, read or watch them. Each turn you take will lead to another hallway filled with PDAs and Video Discs. Note: It is possible you must find the Id Software PDA within the last map of the game, "Primary Excavation", in order to unlock this hidden map. To get to the map type map game/pdas at the console window.

Nightmare difficulty setting

Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "doomconfig.cfg" file in the game folder. Locate the line:

seta g_nightmare "0"

and change it to:

seta g_nightmare "1"

Enable player shadows

Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "doomconfig.cfg" file in the game folder. Locate the line:

seta g_showPlayerShadow "0"

and change it to

seta g_showPlayerShadow "1"

Easy third person view

Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "doomconfig.cfg" file in the game folder. Add the following line to the file, the press P during game play:

bind "p" "toggle pm_thirdperson"

Easier console

To enable the console easier, add +set com_allowConsole 1 to your command-line shortcut for the game. You can then access the console by simply pressing ~.

You can also type set com_allowConsole "1" in the console window. From now on, the console can be opened by just pressing ~.

This can also be done by editing the "doomconfig" file in the "\doom 3\base" folder in a text editor. At the end of the list, add the line:

seta com_allowconsole "1"

Save the file, then right click it and turn on the "Read-only" property. Start the game, and simply press ~ to make the console window appear.

Key binding

Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. To bind a command to a specific key without having to open the console do the following. For example, to give yourself full health, all weapons and maximum ammo by only pressing [F4], edit the "doomconfig" file in the "\doom 3\base" folder with a text editor. Remove the file attributes on this folder first. At the end of the list, add the line:

bind f4 give all

Then, save the file. When you play the game, press [F4] for full health, all weapons, and full ammunition without having to open the console first.

Display console commands

If you cannot remember a console command, type as much as you can remember and press [Tab]. This will display the end parts of the command you entered. For example, type spawn monster_zombie_f and press [Tab]. This will display:

spawn monster_zombie_fat
spawn monster_zombie_fat2
spawn monster_zombie_fat_wrench
spawn monster_zombie_fat_eating

You can also keep pressing [Tab] to highlight the rest of the code if you do not want to type the rest of it in. Warning: If you press [Tab] with a command that has too many possibilities to fit the console window, the window will not show it.

Different text color

Type ^ ([Shift] + 6) then type a number from 0 to 9. Each number is a different color. Note that "7" is the default color, white; and "9" is black, which is a bit difficult to see.

Longer lasting oxygen timer

Use the following trick to have longer lasting oxygen time. On any level where your oxygen timer is counting down, enable the pm_air 58000 code just before entering outside and the oxygen timer starts. You will now have a longer oxygen timer countdown. The default value is "1800". Using this code sets how many milliseconds of oxygen you will have. Note: If you change it to a number other than 58000, your oxygen timer may start out at various different numbers than 100%. You may bind this code to a key to make it more convenient, for example bind "o" "pm_air 58000"

Programmer message

Enter codes from the original Doom (for example, iddqd or idclip) at the console window. Along with the "invalid" message, you will get a message stating that you have a good memory.
