I can't seem to find references to this anymore, but I seem to remember that the doom3 source code was stolen and released in like '03 or '04. So if that's true then my response to this article is, "Again?".


It was in '02. Id gave alpha code to ATI so they could tune their drivers. One of their employees leaked it.

Oh yea. Anyone still has the old code? Would be interesting to make a diff between the alpha and this one. Not to see specific line-by-line fixes but more just to get a general impression of how feature complete it was back then.


The difference is that this is an offical release and is under GPL. So you can fork this code and sell the results.


This time it wasn't leaked.
