Hmm, tech from '95... using VESA BIOS extension and high/extended memory modes, you might be able to modify Doom source code for the optimized 3D operations, but you'd still need to create a LODed-megatexture database and an API to serve it, unless you want users to "Insert CD 23 and press Enter".

Good luck trying to do any sort of 3D rendering in Doom ;)
