1. Installing data files at home

• dhewm3 is the game engine which is free software (GPL)
• the data files are not free and thus need to be bought from steam. Please read these following two urls as they discuss installing pak files in detail:

  • README.md for pybot-dhewm3
  • FAQ for dhewm3

• once you have your doom3 pk4 files they must be placed into the directory /usr/share/dhewm3
• once you have copied the pk4 into /usr/share/dhewm3
  • hint this is done in GNU/Linux by:

• $ cd into_your_directory_where_the_pk4_files_exist
  $ sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/dhewm3/base
  $ sudo cp *.pk4 /usr/share/dhewm3/base

• where into_your_directory_where_the_pk4_files_exist will vary from user to user
• now you can run a tool to verify you have the correct pk4 files
• 
  $ md5sum /usr/share/dhewm3/base/*.pk4
