ioquake3 is a game engine project which aims to build upon id Software's Quake 3 source code release. The source code was released on August 20, 2005 under the GPL. The project's goal is to create a bug-free, enhanced open source Quake 3 source code distribution upon which new games and projects can be based, as well as an improved version (in relation to the original binaries) of the engine for playing Quake III: Arena, the Team Arena expansion pack and all the popular mods.
