Thats very fair. Depth of field is enabled by default. That can make it run slow. Try disabling it under Options > Display ...

Thanks for the bug report. Quick play seems broken in production atm. Im trying to figure out why.
drdator··on Show HN: Q3Edit – Edit and play Quake 3 maps in the browser
No idea, honestly :) I built it just for the fun of it. I mapped back in the Radiant days and wanted to see if I could make something similar that would run in a browser. Sharing it was an afterthought.

Thanks for the nostalgia trip :) I was a big fan of Quiver back in the day. I even ported q3map to classic Mac OS at one point (I was 14 i think) so I could build maps in Quiver and run them in Q3 without leaving my Mac. Which I guess makes the WASM build in Q3Edit the second time I've ported q3map somewhere it was never meant to run.

Thanks for the bug report, I will look into it

Thank you! No, it's the original q3map from the GPL source release compiled to WASM, not q3map2. Will at some point look into q3map2.

Nice to see you here, I’m a big fan of your videos! I did some work on Q3 mapping tools for mac back in the day and always been very interested in everything quake related.
