Quake 3 Arena clone on the LTE 2.0 engine?

[Be3f]

It's near impossible for our homebrew-community to make a real Quake 3 port for PSP (at least, PSP has too low memory and we can't use swapping...) but I think, it is possible to make a Quake 3 clone on another 3D engine!

LTE 2.0 is the most adanced homebrew 3D (with hardware GU rendering) engine for the PSP: it supports many graphic features and has useful modules, such as multiplayer code... and it already has the Quake3.BSP map format support!

Here's a PSP demo of the Quake3.bsp map on LTE 2.0 engine:
www.xd-studio.com/psp/demo.rar

And offical site of the LTE engine:
www.ltestudios.com

I think it's possible to combine Quake 3 sources with LTE sources, to make some kind of a loader of all Quake 3 content (bsp maps, md3 models, wave & mp3 sounds, jpg&tga gfx, dm68 demos, cin videos, cfg config, shaders...) based on LTE engine, with all First-Person Shooter physics, game rules and ballance from Quake 3, Ad-Hock & Infrastructure multiplayer and, maybe most of the Quake 3 console commands... It would be almost true Quake 3!

I'm not advanced in C coding to do all this work... So, programmers - what do you think, is it possible? Does anyone want to start such project?

tell ya what, infrastucture will be possable as soon as Insomiac releases that damn Lib of his , you should ask Charnold for his md3 loader he uses for Dungeons:S

Lol i have the dungeons source code and the iris source code so im set =) dunno if ill ever get around to ding anything with it

I'm getting sick of people who say's that it's impossible to create a port of quake 3 to the PSP because it doesn't has enough RAM.
I'm playing quake 3 on my dell axim x51v with only 32 mb free RAM and it runs good altough you need a fast pda for it.
so it's possible to create a port of quake 3 to the PSP especially for the PSP slim wit 64 mb RAM.

I even created this message on my pda.

Yeah saying a Quake 3 port is impossible is going a bit far.

It's possible, with a lot of work.

Be patient and it will happen.
