Doom3 can produce larger environments than Source?

How much ram does that huge terrain map needs? 8GB? How much time did he spend compiling that thing? Days? weeks???

[InsaneSingingBlender]

probably spent about 10 seconds compiling, maybe less. not sure about the ram though.

doom 3 reads directally from the map file. All compiling does is render the static shadows, portals, and ai stuff. Doesnt need to compile the any brushes. Take a sp map from doom 3 and compile it, it takes about 30 seconds.

I can't get DoomEdit to run, might have something to do with running a copy of Doom 3 I guess, I mean to buy it sometime but it's not exactly on my priority list at the moment...

This is what I get:

The game that combines strategy, quick thinking and aim best is, by far, minesweep. 79 seconds on expert, beat it baby.

The D3E is a more complex and modern engine in the core than source is, and will always be. The problem is that Doom 3 is a bad game in every way I can think of and I hate it like poison.
