Technical notes

Quake III Arena source port built from ioquake3 with the libretro backend. Also supports Team Arena (missionpack), OpenArena (baseoa), Quake3Rally (baseq3r), and Urban Terror (q3ut4) via path detection. Content is loaded from the .pk3 file path - the engine resolves the parent directory structure to find baseq3/ and loads pak0.pk3 through pak8.pk3 sequentially. Game data files (.pk3 archives) come from the retail game. No files are required in the RetroArch system directory.

No BIOS or firmware files required. Generated on 2026-03-25T14:56:43Z
