   Quake 3 Versions
Q3 Versions

Game updates or ?point releases? are updates from the initial released quake. If the server uses a different protocol or release than the version on your computer you will not be able to connect to that server.Quake III uses different network protocols depending on the point release used.

Point release -> Protocol:

1.16 -> 43 (Download)
1.17 -> 45
1.2x -> 48
1.30 -> 66
1.31 -> 67
1.32 -> 68 (Download) - the latest point release upon which all info in this guide supports

If your version is below 1.16n then you should upgrade to the latest patch for 1.16, you will still be able to connect to the same servers. However, if you upgrade to release 1.32 you will NOT be able to play on 1.16 servers, unless you have a version switcher, or some other method of reverting back to whatever version you require.

It's possible to upgrade your quake 3 to the latest release and use Version Switcher to down/upgrade to any version. Many mods and variants of Q3 have been designed and developed by coders and communties so your current version may not be supported by many game servers.

The OFx Q3 Version Switch is easy to install and here is what it looks like :



Simply download the 1.32 release, after downloading follow the instuctions given by the installer .
