Hi! Can quake 3 textures be included in the game? With custom maps they're a lot of textures missing

In short No. Quake 3 textures are not under the GPL and so cannot be released with this game.

However many of the quake 3 textures have been re-created & licensed under the GPL for OpenArena. From my understanding not all quake 3 textures have been re-created. So some are missing.

So thats why some custom maps for quake 3 don't appear properly in OpenArena.

Have a look in the SVN for which textures there are in Open Arena: http://openarena.ws/svn/textures/
Using the same name convention on the textures as for Quake 3 will make the maps render in both Quake 3 and Open Arena.
