Announcing the release of Into Cerberon version 003a, codenamed \"Quartzon\", a minor update to our previous 003 release. IC003a brings the following enhancements:

• Updated codebase to Doom 3 patch 1.3.1. Now users of all four Doom 3 supported OS/architectures can play together: Windows x86, Linux x86, Mac x86, and Mac PowerPC!
• New version of ic_mine fixes many sizing issues
• Autocannon weapon pickup correctly gives 24 Autocannon ammo, instead of 24 minigun ammo
• Corrected a couple of textures

Download Into Cerberon 003a today, and get your tri-chordin' on! Stay tuned for IC004 coming soon, with even more guns, maps, and gameplay features.

Note that IC003a requires Doom 3 patch 1.3.1, so be sure you have it installed before you try to play (the previous release, IC003, was for Doom 3 1.3), and have a look at the 003a Readme for installation & configuration details if you're stumped. If this is your first time visiting Into Cerberon, why not take a stroll through our image gallery to get a feel for the mod?

Nice one!

Will have to check it out over the weekend.

Thanks HeXetic.
You guys rock!


BTW, awesome pic.

Thanks !

awesome! I'll check it out tonight!

The screenies are great.

That is stunning.

Have you received any feedback from the Doom3 community? [edit: apparently so, I just saw the magazine pic...any threads to look at on Doom3 sites?]

Are all Descent weapons realized yet or still in production?
How much is Doom3?

Doom 3 brand new should be about $20 or so, even on Amazon it's pretty cheap compared to a new game. Used, you might pay even less.

The following weapons are in IC003A:
- Lasers (not upgradeable/quaddable yet)
- Minigun
- IC Autocannon (different from Descent AC)
- Plasma cannon
- Concussion Missiles (no pri/sec dual-weapon wielding yet)

IC004 will add:
- Upgradeable lasers (lvl1->lvl4, dual->quad)
- Spreadfire Cannon
- Mini-missile launcher (with pri/sec dual-weapon wielding)
- Ramming damage (smash into a guy, he takes damage)

The Doom 3 community is rather small, but response has been enthusiastic for IC due perhaps primarily to the fact that it isn't yet another shoot-aliens/demons-over-HERE-now mod.

Has this been tested with Linux Doom3? If not, would you guys like a alpha/beta tester?

Check their site. IIRC, this does have a linux element.

IC has included Linux (and Mac) binaries and although we haven't explicitly tested them, I haven't heard any complaints so I have to assume they work (building the Linux .so is really not all that complicated).

As soon as I can snag a hold of a copy of Doom3 (I just recently even got a machine that could play it) I'll give it a shot.
