Hi,
just pointing out some little detail:
idq3 exists also for Linux, as a point release available from ID's ftp
[1]. Some people still use it because they play mods that require idq3
to run okay. Openarena's wiki has pointers to various mods [2].
I play some q3a mods with openarena (mainly CPMA [3]) and experience
some glithes, like missing textures and the like, but the overall
situation is quickly improving with newer openarena releases so I think
this won't be an issue anymore sometime soon.
Hope this helps in some way, have a nice day!
Nicola.
PS: this is my first post and I'd like to thank everybody here for
