simulation has been busy working on his Doom 3 multi-player mod, Enhanced Militarized Zone (EMZ).

The EMZ mod give players and server admins a much more configurable version of Doom 3. What I like most is the server side of things. Server admins have greater control of the elements of Doom 3 multi-play thus making EMZ a great competition mod for any number of players and with all the gametypes.


updates are:
• fall damage cvar for admins
• increased functionality of the dedicated server console

Both of these updates get a big 'Thank You' from ned ;]

Details are on his development blog - http://www.the-emz.com/blog -

There is a new IP for the Doom 3 mod servers.

The Doom 3 multiplayer voice commands never worked properly, even with the latest patch.
I've made a client config pack that fixes this.

notes:
• Works with Resurrection of Evil and most mods.
• Servers do not have to have the files for them to work.
• Will not conflict with Punkbuster.

Punkbuster has been updated on the nedDOOM3 server. It was quite an effort to do this for some strange reason but it's done. Sorry for the inconvenience to those who got the 'server not up to date' spam and thanks for letting me know.

Production has begun on DOOM 4â„¢, the next journey into the legendary DOOM universe. We are expanding our internal team and are currently hiring to work on this highly anticipated title.

"DOOM is part of the id Software DNA and demands the greatest talent and brightest minds in the industry to bring the next installment of our flagship franchise to Earth," said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software. "It's critical for id Software to have the best creative minds in-house to develop games that meet the standards synonymous with our titles."

The DOOM franchise is one of the most recognizable and important in gaming history, having been named "one of the ten most influential games of the decade" by PC Gamer and "the #1 game of all time" by GameSpy. DOOM 4 will join the award-winning series which has consistently topped sales charts throughout the world.

Life just keeps getting better!

For those that know of the Enhanced Militarized Zone (EMZ) mod for Doom 3 will be very pleased to hear that work is still being done on it! Simulation, EMZ's creator, recently gave us this news on his development blog - http://the-emz.com/blog.
