Doom 3 port on dreamcast
Is it possible to port Doom 3 to dreamcast? The source code was just released 2 years ago and it is on github. Here is the link https://github.com/TTimo/doom3.gpl

Simple answer, no it is not possible.
Doom 3, or the Quake 4 engine, is built for PC's, or consoles with programable vertex shaders, something the DC does not have.
Commercial developers did not even attempt to release the game on PS2 due to the hardware differences ( and limitations ) of the PS2

It was more of changing trends, in the internet era evertone owns a decent computer.
Back then gamers were restricted to either consoles or computers. That is why games like Doom and Duke Nukem were completely reenigered for different hardwares like the Sega Saturn.
