[RELEASE] vitaQuakeIII - Quake III: Arena / Quake III: Team Arena port for PSVITA

vitaQuakeIII v.0.6 BETA

Description:

vitaQuakeIII is a port of Quake 3: Arena and Quake 3: Team Arena based on ioquake3 engine.
It's still in current BETA stage so expect bugs and unstable framerate but as of now it's already enjoyable for playing.
I suggest NOT TO MESS UP with Setup menu since the release will have an already tweaked config file that should offer a good framerate without downgrading too much graphics. If you want to change some settings, edit q3config file inside baseq3 folder.

How to use lower resolutions:

To use lower resolutions to improve framerate more, edit in q3config file the r_mode parameter to:

0 = 480x272
1 = 640x368
2 = 720x408
3 = 960x544

Controls:

DPad or Left Analog = Move character
Right Analog/Touchscreen = Move Camera
L = Aim
R = Shoot
Cross = Jump
Square = Crouch
Circle = Use Item
Triangle = Change in use weapon
Start = Pause
Select = Show Score

How to use full game files:

To use full game files, you'll need data files updated to latest patch available.
Place pk3 files from baseq3 folder to ux0:data/ioq3/baseq3 folder for standard game and pk3 files from missionpack folder to ux0:data/ioq3/missionpack folder for Quake 3: Team Arena.

Known bugs/issues:

- Framerate is unstable, especially in Team Arena
- Quake III: Arena logo is not properly rendered in main menu
- Character model is not properly rendered in Setup submenus
- 3D Icons in the in game HUD get covered from walls sometimes and from player weapon
- Attempting to launch Team Arena in game from Quake III causes a crash (use the Livearea icon)
- Multiplayer currently doesn't work

Not feasable for how ioquake3 works, or at least not easily enough to be worth.

 

I don't own the game so would be impossible for me to even test it (and since i'm not a fan of Star Wars saga, i'm not willing to spend money for a game i won't play).

 

You're not using shared libraries provided in the Data Files in VitaDB.

 

Not really, if i don't like a game, i just prefer working on something else (that's why i'm actually working on RTCW).
If i'll ever need the game, i probably use my Patreon's donations to cover the cost of the game (as i've did with RTCW and Quake III).

 

1. Not tried mods and probably most won't work. You'll require to disable shared libraries in config file to even try.
2. Depends on what you mean for RAM since Quake III has different kind of internal heaps. Not to mention vitaGL too has his own two heaps.
3. Depends highly on what's rendered on screen and your config file.
4. No.
