Installation guides: Windows, macOS, Linux Therefore it is highly recommended to use it and it is free! The ioQuake3 team made many improvements that enhance the engines abilities. pk3 files are loaded by the Quake 3 engine in alphabetical order (more on that in the chapter about modifications).Īs the standard Quake 3 engine already would be sufficient to play the game it is highly recommended to add the enhanced ioQuake3 engine for a better gaming experience (see the corresponding chapter). After the installation procedure you will find there a quake3.exe file (which is used to start the Quake 3 engine) and a baseq3 subfolder (that contains the basic Quake 3 maps, textures, graphics, sounds and scripts which are packed within. d:\games\quake3) and apply the appropriate patch file. Windows version (should be similar for the other versions): Install the game on any location you like (e.g. To update to the latest official version v1.32 use the appropriate patch file: You must purchase the game to use the data and play Quake 3: Amazon, eBay Most of the installation explanations can also be found here. Despite thinking the most values (except hardware related settings, of course) would fit very well into any standard configuration, feel free to experiment and adjust them and leave a comment if you think an adjustmend is (un)necessary.ĭo not forget: The values included here are matching my hardware, my connection, my personal visual and acoustic preferences and my playing behaviour, of course, but I will describe which values are important within the particular area and give you hints how you could set them if I have the knowledge. I will update this post (and the other parts) if changes are needed. Also please inform me if you think a variable/command does not belong into the section it is put into. If you still miss something important then please leave a message (in a new thread as this one is gonna to be locked). If you wonder if a particular variable/command is not shown within a part, the chance is high that it will be included in another part of this guide. I have also included important mod variables/commands (Q3, ioQ3, UnFreeZe), which is shown in the description for each variable/command. logical procedure.Īs the Quake 3 engine is not able to proceed config files that are larger than a particular file size (I think about 18 kBytes) and in order to find them faster, I split all variables/commands into separate smaller config files. First, I sorted them alphabetically to find them faster but I've come to the conclusion that it is better arranging them to their respective area and by hierarchy resp.
In the last months I have spend several hours/days in order to organize the most important Q3 variables and commands. You will also propably find more descriptions. Here you can ask questions, make suggestions and debate settings, engine behaviour, etc.
