Ada Doom 3 is an open source project created as both an experiment and as a serious attempt at making a Windows game engine capable of fully rendering Doom 3 assets.
Engineering a complete OS media layer and 3D engine that facilitates multiple platforms presents many unique challenges. These challenges and solutions will be discussed.
I will also cover how Ada aided in the process of reverse engineering the half million line Doom 3 BFG (Id Tech 4 BFG) code base and how its typing system helped steer the development of Ada Doom 3 to its current state.
