Has anybody out there had issues with OpenGL games (specifically Q3 and MOH)? These Q3 engine games just fatally crash my computer.
I have to restart and fsck my disk several times to clean up any errors from the informal shutdown..
I would like to hear from you if your a gamer and had similar issues.
Thanks!

Quake III games work perfectly on my dual 800 with 10.2.4.

Where can I get GL Quake 3? I have the OS 9 version and it's great and I have GL Quake 1 but haven't been able to find any others to run in OS X. Please hook me up with a link.

just copy the Q3 folder from the cd to your drive then update from here:

also do yourself a favourite and get this total conversion mod: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/9641
then stop by here and tell me if it works fine!

Q3 runs spectacularly on my 10.2.4 1ghz imac. 90 fps multiplayer at 1024x768 max details =)

My video card died...that was my problem..i first noticed it in gaming and then it started to crash in the OS as well.
So there you have it folks.
1 dead geforce 2 MX to be upgraded with whatever someone will sell me.
Perhaps a 9700 since i got a new job.
