Quake 3 has been ported to run on OS X-Intel architecture, available as version 1.3.2 software.
It's worth noting that this release is not a universal binary and requires a full version of Quake 3 to work. However, if you meet these requirements and want to try out this updated version, here's what you can expect:
Initial time-demo tests of the port have shown that it doubled the frame rate when compared to running the PPC version under emulation. The colors are also now correct, which will enhance your overall gaming experience.
Additionally, the compiled vm mode now works, although there may be some bugs. To ensure reliability, it's recommended that you set the following variables in your cfg file: seta vm_cgame "1", seta vm_game "1", seta vm_ui "1". This will ensure that the game runs more smoothly, although it may be slightly slower.
Overall, this updated version of Quake 3 is a great addition to the gaming community. If you're a fan of the game and have the necessary requirements, we highly recommend trying it out for yourself.
