Hey,I have a Mac for not so long now, and I'd like to play Quake 3 on it.I've been looking for some explanations about how to run the game under Mac OS X but seems I didn't managed to launch the game :[I've also searched the forum to find any help but didn't find anything usefull..I know some people in this community are playing with their own Mac, may they have the patience to help me ?

Re: Quake 3 on my mac
i had ALOT of problem with quake3 on mac, thats why ive a win partition and i use it there.. btw i did it
first of all the installer put alot of files randomly in my application folder and i had to put them in quake3 folder..then i had to instal the right client, i tried many and what i use now is the one madbringers gave me, http://www.excessiveplus.net/forums/thread/beta6-on-osx look here.
and then i had problem with these 3 command ...u have to find what works with u
vm_ui "2"
vm_game "2"
vm_cgame "2"
...and after that i had problem with binding keys, like here on laptop if i turn down chat i donno how to turn it back and also i think mouse sensitivity is different in osx... thats why after all this work i use quake on xp side that i made with bootcamp:P
gl and hf:D

Btw I've also tried to launch the game via my xp virtual machine using VM Ware Fusion, but couldn't launched the game, I just had a grey screen and that's it.
