DOOM 3 monster generator descriptions etc

Post by Hidden Hands »

Not entirely sure if this is the right place to ask for this, but I'm looking for some resources I can't find anywhere unless I play through the whole of DOOM 3. (Which I'm doing again because I want to anyway, but its not just a convenient way to work). In particular, I wanted the script for several parts of the game.

Firstly, there is one part of DOOM 3 in which you discover a room filled with generators and inside are mutilated bits of demons, and you can examine the little computer screen in front of each tank and it gives a description (from the UAC perspective) on the beings they have captured. There was some very interesting stuff in there that I would like to read again on paper.

Secondly, DOOM 3 speaks of an ancient warrior who fought the demons with the Soul Cube and an ancient civilisation on Mars that was wiped out by the demons before hand. This was described amidst a room full of stone tablets (that resembled DOOM 1's cover artwork.)

Anything else is a bonus. Hope someone can locate me this in a text form or point in the right direction to find it.

Thank you in advance.

If you mean the PDA messages, you can find them in: <path to Doom3>/base/pak000.pk4

Inside that pk4 there is an folder "newpdas", every pda file is located there and they can be opened via notepad. The file you are looking for is called "info_emails.pda"
