    Doom3 patch

    I've noticed that the patch for Doom3 is a windows executable... is there a linux patch coming out? is there a way to install the windows patch to linux?

    What je_fro is trying to say is, keep an eye on that directory

    Once the patch is available that is where you will find it first

    Both those links are for the Linux binary, there is no 'patch' (patch is an update to an existing app). This binary incorporates the 1.1 windows patch so there is no need.

    I don't know of any newer patches then that and id does not list any others

    you'll have to forgive me for being a little dense, but I saw this file in that directory.

    doom3-linux-1.1.1286.x86.run

    is this a patch or is this just an updated installer?
