All I get out of this new patch is invalid cd_key. That's with a fresh install from an original disk. I can play single player fine but it won't let me in to internet servers.

I'm still active with quake3 multiplayer.

1) I play instagib (rails). 99% of the time 1vs1. Doesn't take a computer program to tell you if someone cheats. /callvote kick dumbass works on every server i'm on.

2) The only big fix that needed to be done was searching for servers. Why does it take 20 minutes to ping all the serves on Quake 3, when it takes only 10 seconds on new releases like Battefield 1942? And no, I dont wish to use gamespy or any other gay 3rd party program.

Mac Point Release 1.32

I have been working hard on the Mac point release. I am currently experiencing extreme performance degradation of the application running under OS X 10.2, with that in mind, and the 7fps frame rate, the app is not worth releasing until the issue is fixed. I 100% believe this is our issue, not an issue with the OS, since previous Q3A builds are running just fine under 10.2. Due to an internal misunderstanding I did not have correct source until today.

I apologize, and am working diligently on the issue.

Graeme.

Why not just play the original Quake with a new game engine and new textures and models? Artists have been working on creating new textures and models that take advantage of Tenebrae's superior graphics technology. Tenebrae is a free version of the original Quake that uses the same graphics technology used by the new Doom 3 game engine. Check it out here:
