Doom 3

[Guest]

Hi.
I've just bought doom 3 loaded it fine.(expantion pack hasnt turned up yet
although it is ordered.) could some one please tell me can I use a game pad
with doom 3? I cannot fined anywhere to change the options and in controllers
there is nothing.
Also I have got a 6800GT 256mb pci-e card but I am getting a shutter in some
of the graphic. I would of thought a card of this spec would of handled it
perfectly.
The grapic setting are screen res1024 by 768 pix at 32 bit colour and only
on good quality in the game setting. I did try it set to ultra worked ok but
it still had a stutter in the picture.
Any help on this would be great.
Thanks

The ultra detail setting was designed for 512mb cards.

According to this post on Activision's website (Doom3's publisher), gamepads
are not supported.

Game doesn't directly support a joypad. Your only hope might be either some
type of "button remapping" software (e.g. Logitech's Profiler program) that
came with the pad or alternatively one of the joystick-to-mouse/keyboard
type apps a simple google search should turn up. I'd expect "button
remapping" software to work reasonably well but the lag using one of the
generic joystick-to-*** programs might be too long.

In either case, I'd expect most mouse/keyboard users to frag joypad users no
problem. Joypad just isn't going to provide the fine control the
mouse/keyboard provides and with most fps PC games you need it.
