I'm doing some stability testing and wanted to run Quake3 in a continuous loop. Now I'm not a big gamer (except Tribes2) and I never really played Quake3 except at a friends house. I downloaded the free demo but I can't seem to find any option in the settings to run a continuous loop or monitor my FPS.
I'd appreciate it if someone could tell me how.

i dont know how to make it loop, but to monitor your fps you must go into the q3config.cfg file and change the value of the string "seti cg_drawfps" from "0" to "1"
Go to deja.com and search on "Q3 timedemo loop" or some variation of that. You'll find the answer. I did this once a while ago. I just don't remember the answer.

I have a utility called Q3Bench that allows you to do multiple benchmarks at various resolutions. I think it also has a "loop" feature. Go here http://www.g256.com/ for main site and put Q3Bench in the search box and it will take you to the necessary files for download.
I looked at that site more closely, just look of to the right on the front page under downloads and the link is right there.
