my macbook has the 9400M graphics and a 2.3Ghz core2duo and it runs urt just fine. so it has to be something else.
I would create a temporary new user and download the game again to that user but this time download the game from gamershell http://www.gamershel...oad_22562.shtml its only version 4.1 but I know it to work without any problems, and we can always update you too 4.1.1 if we get the game working.

Do you have a mirror of 4.1?
It says " The authentication key you used was not valid. " and I haven't a good experience with torrents.. ( It never works with me )
Thanks,

I tried also the 4.1 version, but it doesn't work either..
I don't know what's wrong.
All the things I've tried doesn't work.
Also by other games my mac is getting a lot slower when the game is running.
I think my mac has a problem or something else too old maybe.
Thanks for helping me,

Dude this game is 10+ yrs old ... your mac is powerfull enough!! (I play with a G5 dual 1.8) lol
.. did you try removing previously downloaded maps/demos/srcreenshots from that folder I told you in previous post?
Hard Drive/Users/YourUserName/Library/ApplicationSupport/Quake3/q3ut4
how much free space left on your hard drive?? always try to keep ~20% free space
have you tried "repair permissions" ... (Applications/Utilities/DiskUtility.app .. first aid tab.. select your hard drive.. clic repair permissions)

download http://www.macupdate...9/smcfancontrol and check your temperatures. iMac aren't the best idea for gaming on.
Apple loves them to be super quiet which means they'll run hot to keep fan speed / noise low. it could be that the CPU is throttling itself due to heat restrictions.
if its too hot you can manually adjust your fan speed using SMC Fan control and set up a gaming profile for it.
