From modwiki
Can we put a link to the Annotated API on the front page?

Sure
It's free for all to edit, just go ahead :). --iceheart 21:54, 26 Jun 2005 (W. Europe Daylight Time)
maya to doom?
I saw the Maya importer, is there a Maya exporter for Doom3?
.demo file format help
Sorry if I shouldnt be posting here but I have no where else to go for help on this subject and this site and its people seemed very intelligent so thats why im here. My question is I have some .demo files for a game how can i few them and edit them say if there not working and I need to go in and fix them. how would i go in an edit them is there a program for opening the .demo format? I have searched all over the place and the .demo file format is virtually nonexsistent. Thanks for your help and im sorry if this post is not relevant to what should be posted here.
A better place to ask your questions...
A wiki isn't a good place for questions and answers. It's better to post your question in a forum like www.doom3world.org.

How to get help
Something I've been wanting to write for a long time: How to get help
Hopefully someone with ideas can expand on it. Maybe we can also add some other resources.. like the planetdoom forums.. *evil grin*
Anyway, feel free to edit it, fix stuff, add links, categorize, whatever. I think a "tutorial on how to get help" was really needed, people may be really lost with the distribution of the content, so hopefully we can streamline the knowledge mining process a bit.
Also, I still am unsure about the tutorials... there's too much duplicate information between d3wiki and d3world (the problem being it has to be up-to-date on both at the same time) so I really think some stuff should be moved here and linked from there.

Why CVars for CVars & Commands
Otherwise the general non-game specific commands page would be very small. We should rename this page "console" or "cvars & commands" or something else but for now, since the CVars page has a reasonable amount of links to it, I'm leaving it as is.--Mordenkainen 18:33, 26 October 2005 (W.

Console
I changes it to just plain "Console", since the first paragraph seemed to fit that article in the first place. The main page link now says "CVar's & Console Commands". --iceheart 18:38, 26 October 2005 (W. Europe Daylight Time)
Facelift?
What about a little more facelifting for the wiki? I'm thinking about an improved top-bar logo and a little favicon, just for kicks. Speaking of it, the modwiki needs a cool logo. Anyone volunteering? ;)
Coming soon
I'll probably do a logo and a little favicon for it soon. --iceheart 09:39, 1 November 2005 (W. Europe Standard Time)
FOLDERS?
I'm not sure if this is a good idea but what about removing ALL THOSE FOLDER articles. There are lots of very short articles detailing the folders. These are hardly filled with content and only link to the respective filetypes. Why not merge all these articles into the game respective Folder structure (Quake 4) pages? I think that would create one page that is much more helpful that the scattered little folder articles.
Now that the folder tree is a page of its own...
That is an excellent idea, I hereby give this task to you :). --iceheart 03:48, 11 November 2005 (W. Europe Standard Time)
Thank god
mordekainen took over and done it for D3. ;)
Another thing, or two rather. Visual stuff. First, can we possibly make the top bar a little smaller? It's taking away lots of real estate. (okay, so i have a 1280x800 widescreen display here).
Second: I love the splashpage at iddevnet. The game-images are so much more cooler than our comicish-colored ones. We propably have to stick with them though because they still work in small size because of their comic-colors

Design
I designed the icons to be pale and color coded for easy recognition, not for "coolness", and as you say, intricate logos won't work very well on that small scale (the smallest one is just 25px square).
How much smaller do you think the top bar should be? It looks fine to me but I'm on 1600x1200 here. --iceheart 09:58, 22 November 2005 (W. Europe Standard Time)
Search engine
Is it possible to enable searching for "words" with only 3 letters? Many file formats have only 3 :(
--Legshot 13:26, 16 December 2005 (W. Europe Standard Time)
erm, well, hello ;)
hello
this is my very very first time i try to add some content to a wiki and i have absolutely no clue where to talk to you is the right place, if there is any. Help:Editing doesnt help me much in this case. (or am i missing something?)
just wanted to check if here are any activities but mine...
Yep,
there are activities here, occasionally :).
Talking is fine on any talk page in general, but most of us frequent the forum at doom3world.org, which is a much better place to talk. --iceheart 03:44, 1 June 2006 (W. Europe Daylight Time)
