I've never played the game, but others have it working. A few things that I know:
- You need the full Quake 3 game; the demo version doesn't work (is any particular version required?)
- The port was an alpha/beta release and is buggy. For example, it's known to lockup in the menus

OK OK KL.... Excuse lol .
I tried to put 1 Million in stack but no nething happened. So a question arrives to my mind . Why do they let a prog on os4depot if it doesn't work ??
So the thing i'm going to do ----> play Quake 1 like KL invited me a few hours ago !

Since Amiga OS4 Final July update, Quake 3 works for a few seconds here so don't bother trying to make it work and have fun with GL Quake

At least under Update4 I must say that on my A1 it was pretty stable, I have finished the game and during this time it has crashed only one or two times in total. Previously I had many stability problems due to wrong vcore settings.

I have also first installed the game on a PC, but before I transfered it to my A1 I have updated it to the latest version available, as suggested on an amigaworld.net thread, maybe that could solve your stability problems.

As has been pointed out numerous times by both Thomas and me, the Quake 3 port is buggy and is "if you're lucky it runs"-ware. The source code is available, anyone is welcome to try and fix it.

EDIT: Having said this, as usual, I cannot reproduce half the problems that people seem to have with it... It runs here, including mods like Urban Terror etc.

Seriously, if you do want to contact me write me a mail. You're more likely to get a reply then.

Woah.. you're playing Urban Terror? coool.. It was my favorite game for a long time (and i also for a long time i didn't find the time to play it :-/ ) .. maybe we can meet some day at a server and see who's better :-p

But first i have to try to get it running again on my A1 .. thos damn time constraints... sigh...
