John Carmack's legal dispute with Zenimax Media ends

Veteran programmer John Carmack has come to an agreement with Zenimax Media after filing a lawsuit against the company last year.

Carmack took Zenimax to court last year to sue for $22.5 million he claimed was still owed after Id Software was acquired by the company in 2009.

Settlement

Last week, however, Carmack revealed through Twitter that this particular dispute has been closed.

He and Zenimax have reached an agreement, the details of which have not been made public.
