Create an autoexec.cfg in your base folder (in your Doom 3 folder).
And copy / paste these lines

seta image_downSize "0"
seta image_downSizeBump "0"
seta image_downSizeSpecular "0"
seta image_filter "GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR"
seta image_ignoreHighQuality "0"
seta image_useCompression "0"
seta image_useNormalCompression "0"
seta r_renderer "best"
seta r_customHeight "1080"
seta r_customWidth "1920"
seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_AspectRatio "1"

That's because it's a bug. The game by default can't see proper VRAM capacities on current GPUs and even if you try setting the game to Ultra, it defaults to Low textures. You need to have the proper .ini file for the visuals to look as they should.

Here you can play Vanilla Doom3 with HD-Textures from BFG-Edition without all
bad "influence" from BFG!!

Try my .ini.................!

My advice is use the dhewm3 source port. Doom 3 doesn't quite work right on modern OSes. And this way, you don't have to use the horrible BFG Edition port.

If you want Steam overlay and playtime tracking, just unpack dhewm3 into your Doom 3 folder, delete doom3.exe, and then rename dhewm3.exe to doom3.exe.

What resolution are you running at? Also can you take a screenshot of the textures?

I'll be honest, I tried Dhewm3. There was zero difference to regular Doom 3 for me.

Dhewm is just as moronic as Doom 3 at default settings and both need .ini tweaking to work as expected.

I didn't have any problems with it.

You didn't try downsampling 4K visuals at 1080p or proper resolution for UI front (game menu, PDA) then. And I can guarantee you didn't have proper texture resolution either without tweaking an .ini.
