ioquake3

To set up ioquake3, do the following:

1. Download ioquake3 from https://github.com/MacSourcePorts/ioq3/releases.
2. Open the dmg file and copy the app to the Applications folder.
3. Copy the contents of the original Quake III Arena baseq3 folder to ~/Library/Application Support/Quake3/baseq3.

To set custom resolution, follow these steps:

1. Launch and exit the game at least once.
2. Open the ~/Library/Application Support/Quake3/baseq3/q3config.cfg file with an editor.
3. Set the following options:

   seta r_mode "-1"
   seta r_customwidth "1920"
   seta r_customheight "1080"
   

If you experience low FPS, try switching from the opengl2 renderer to opengl1:

seta cl_renderer "opengl1"
