Every time I launch Quake 3 it seems fine until I hit anything on the menu. From singleplayer to exit, every time I click on something the frame rate drops to about half a frame a second. How do I fix this, I cant find a fix anywhere else

how to fix it because i am being pissed off

Hey there, sorry quake 3 wasn’t working. A few questions to try and solve the issue:

  1. Did you download a version of ioquake3 from our website or are you running the original quake 3 without ioquake3?
  2. Are you running Windows? macOS? Linux? What version or distro?
  3. What graphics hardware does your computer have? Do other games run at normal speeds?
