Dear community,

I have a LAN organised this weekend, and i plan on going with my new G5 iMac. I have a version of Quake3 for Mac, but it doesnt want to launch on MacOS X 10.4. (Tiger)

I have installed the MacOS 9.2 Classic Support, but it stills doenst load.. i have never played it on a Macintosh, i am new to the system, and unfortunately, i have to get it ready by Saturday evening !!


Could you please give me a hand?
Time is counting..

Best regards, Gilles

What's that resolution? You can use a custom resolution with:

r_mode -1
r_customheight "y" (number of pixels)
r_customwidth "x" (number of pixels)

Is it possible to always launch the game with that resolution? (with these commands)
