    Hi everyone,

    Doom 3 isn't working properly in MorphOS 3.20 anymore, because the entire screen goes completely black during gameplay.

    To confirm this, I performed a fresh clean install of MorphOS 3.19 and installed SDL2 and SDL3, and the game runs perfectly fine (PowerMac G5 with x1950 Pro)
    Then I upgraded from MorphOS 3.19 to MorphOS 3.20, and now the entire screen is completely black during gameplay (changing any settings in F10 doesn’t make a difference).

    Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
    Thanks



    Here’s some additional information:

    After confirming that updating from MorphOS 3.19 to MorphOS 3.20 caused Doom 3 to stop working properly (the background was completely black), as a last-ditch effort to resolve the issue, I tried updating SDL2 to the latest version 2.32.11 and SDL3 to the latest version 3.4.10, then rebooted MorphOS, but the issue with the game persists.

    The version I’m using is the latest one in morphos-storage, namely Doom3_1.5.5pre

    I suspect at this point it’s a compatibility issue with the latest version of TinyGL in MorphOS 3.20; since I don’t know how to fix it, I’m asking help you guys
    thanks

    //add note
    I just noticed that there was also a version by @beworld, but it’s no longer available for download. If anyone still has it, I might give it a try.

    I can only confirm, tested on X5000/40 with X1950 and on the beginning of the game can see only some upper lights and terminal screen, everything else is black.
    MorphOS 3.x
