## Specific system information ### File organization Boom3 and Dhewm3 need a file with the extension .boom3 to be placed in the `roms\doom3` folder of your RetroBat installation. (dhewm3 also accepts .game extension) The .boom3 (or .game) must point to the subfolder and pak000.pk4 file:

Boom3 and dhewm3 require original .pk4 files from the Doom3 game and the Resurrection of Evil addon, you'll need the game data from a Doom3 installation patched to 1.3.1. Specifically, you'll need the following .pk4 files (base folder contains the original game data, d3xp contains the Resurrection of Evil game data): ``` └── roms/ └── boom3/ ├── Doom 3.boom3 ├── Doom 3 - Resurrection of evil.boom3 ├── base/ │ ├── pak000.pk4 │ ├── pak001.pk4 │ ├── pak002.pk4 │ ├── pak003.pk4 │ ├── pak004.pk4 │ ├── pak005.pk4 │ ├── pak006.pk4 │ ├── pak007.pk4 │ └── pak008.pk4 └── d3xp/ ├── pak000.pk4 └── pak001.pk4 ``` ### Dhewm3: run custom command lines With dhewm3 emulator, it is possible to run specific user-defined command lines, to do so, open the rom file with a txt editor and add the command lines to be added in a second line:

In the example above, RetroBat will run the bloodmod and add the following commands: ``` +set com_allowconsole 1 +set g_gib_power 100 +set g_gib_shadows 1 ``` ### Mods Dhewm3 can run mods. The list of mods can be found on the [game engine webpage](https://dhewm3.org/mods.html).
