If you use digital gamepad I can say - forgot it. Best compination is 
keyboard + mouse for FPS games like Doom 3.

I have USB Microsoft Gamepad too and I play Flatout car game with it. So 
I had possibility to test your problem. Seems that there is not support 
for pad. But I am not sure. Try to ask this same question on Doom III
