Doom 3: BFG Edition Mod Adds Vive and Motion Control Support

Eager to replay Doom 3: BFG Edition, but you want to really get into the action? Then you’ll want to check out this very exciting mod from ‘Codes4Fun’ on Github. The mod takes the original games FPS action to the next level by adding support for the HTC Vive VR headset, as well as motion controller support, which looks freaking awesome and slightly terrifying all at the same time.

As if the VR aspect wasn’t cool enough, you’ll find it is also compatible with room-scale tracking, runs at a full 90FPS stereo mode, and even features a laser sight on all guns, allowing you to actually see where you’re aiming in VR.

It’s awesome to see the PC gaming community create stuff like this, as even when the developers of the game haven’t done it, they’ll just go and make it themselves while letting everyone else download and enjoy their work too!

  • Download the latest version of RBDOOM-3-BFG mod available (currently 1.1.0) from the Github. The mod is a .zip file containing a few files inside.
  • Extract ALL the files from the .zip into the Doom 3 BFG game folder (where you installed the game, for me its C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DOOM 3 BFG Edition\)
  • Start up Steam VR and power up the Vive controllers, and wait until all are green and ready in SteamVR.
  • Double click on the RBDoom3BFG.exe file and put on your Vive headset.
  • Enjoy Doom 3 BFG gameplay in VR on your Vive

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
