Doom 3 BFG: Hi-Def Mod looks glorious, V3.2 available for download
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/doom-3-bfg-hi-def-mod-looks-glorious-v3-2-available-for-download/
Modder ‘y2keeth’ has released a brand new version of his graphical mod for Doom 3: BFG, Doom 3 BFG Hi Def. This mod aims to improve the game’s graphics by introducing higher poly models, tga texture sources, soft shadows and various effects.
Unfortunately, the modder did not share any additional details. From the looks of it, this does not dramatically change the look and style of the game like Sikkmod does. It should also be less demanding, meaning that more PC gamers will be able to run it.

RBDOOM-3-BFG adds Physically Based Rendering, Global Illumination and TrenchBroom Mapping Support to Doom 3
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/rbdoom-3-bfg-adds-physically-based-rendering-global-illumination-and-trenchbroom-mapping-support-to-doom-3/
Created by modder ‘treborator’, RBDOOM-3-BFG is a tool that modders can use in order to overhaul the game’s graphics. As the modder noted, the original main goal of this release is to enable modders the ability to make new content using up-to-date Material & Lighting standards.
Going into more details, Physically Based Rendering will allow artists to create textures that are based on real-world measured color values and they look more or less the same in any renderer that follows the PBR guidelines and formulas. Do note, though, that RBDOOM-3-BFG only supports the standard PBR Roughness/Metallic workflow.
>> This one is also available from ModDB.
