Hello everyone, I'm here on behalf of a project known as The Dark Mod. Our community project initially began as a mod for Doom 3 which aimed to recreate an experience similar to the original Thief series games, created by Looking Glass studios, yet set on a universe of its own, with its individual lore, characters, and geography. Eventually our project became much, much more, currently featuring dozens and dozens of community-made individual missions, one full campaign, and many more incoming.

With the release of the Doom 3 source, The Dark Mod decided it was time to go standalone, so everyone could enjoy the full beauty and complexity of the many fan missions available without being forced to own a copy of Doom 3.

This, of course implies the replacement of many, many art and sound assets belonging to Doom 3 which were being previously being used, with proper original content. While most textures and models have now been replaced, our most dire need at the moment are the dozens of sound effects that need to replaced. We have already drawn as much as we could from sites like Freesound and OpenGameArt, and yet we are still in need of many.

Because of this, we are currently looking for any sound artists and 3D artists willing to contribute to our cause. The Dark Mod is a fully open-source, freeware project which aims for no commercial gain. All work is being done by voluntaries, and all artwork contributions are licensed under CC-BY-NC-SA (non-commercial share-alike) to make sure no parts from our project will ever be monetized by others. All code, respecting the Doom 3 source release, is licensed under GPLv3.

Here's a comprehensive list of missing assets. It hasn't been updated in a while, and lot of those have already been replaced. At this point all the coding bits are ready for standalone so the only thing missing are the listed artwork assets.


Finally, here are a few screenshots of our project.




And a gameplay video of one of our many missions available






We've also got plenty of media coverage throughout the years of existence of our community:

TDM on Rock Paper Shotgun
On Kotaku.au
On PC gamer


If you're interested in helping us, please join us at our community forums. The project leads will then fill you the details of the contents needed, according to your particular set of skills and the amount of help you're willing to provide.

And remember, if you own a copy of Doom 3, you can already enjoy The Dark Mod at its fullest by downloading the latest version (1.08) here, and pick any of the fan missions available here.

Cheers, and happy stealthing!  Toast Right
