Setting up Doom 3 Radiant (D3Edit) editor for custom mods & content This tutorial is going to run through the steps you need to take so you're able to use Doom 3 Radiant ('D3Edit' or 'doom edit') to create content (maps) for custom modifications of the Doom 3 engine.

• SLADE 3 is currently (as of March 9, 2010) in development. It is a merging of SLADE.

I think doom3 will be substantially harder, we're finally getting into the age where mapping is straying away from 'making a blueprint in highschool shop class' to being an actual ART. I believe we'll get bombarded with maps heavily suffering from a 'swinglight syndrom' or even worse - a 'multiple colored overlapping swinglight syndrome'.

After that we'll suffer from maps so fully stacked with physics objects that your comp will come to an halt if you accidentally shoot the environment. I can think of worse things, but after all that we should see 'seasoned' mappers to come up with amazing work, I'm very sure about that. I know the geometry in newage games scares the hell out of me, and I've been a mapper since the original dooms. I can make great layouts and balanced maps, but I don't think I can make the complex environments that are becoming the standard of todays maps. You have to stray away from the idea of mapping everything out in a level editor. Especially Doom3 heavily relies on traditional 3D modelling skills, preferably in LightWave.
