what q3a version do you use?

[roadie]

hi i'm just doing a bit of research to find out what version of q3a runs best on a g4xx card. at the moment i use v 1.17, as i find this gives the best compromise between performance and visual quality (in the higher versions the roacket trails come out as black squares). however the higher versions do offer frame rate improvements for some people, but i guess that for t&l cards.
i am able to run @ 50+fps @1024*768 16bit on my fairly modest rig, so what do you guys find?
also what do you reckon are the best mods for q3a at the moment? i mainly play rocket arena

I play a lot of ra3 to practice aiming.. I'm in a CTF clan myself.

I've got no problems with black blocks or anything in rocket trails (point release 1.27h).

I benchmark q3a with timedemo 1 and demo demo127.

Currently I run q3a with:
800x600, 16 bit colour + textures, Vertex lighting, bilinear filtering, texture quality one notch from max, and a lot of the game options disabled. With these settings I get 100fps in demo demo127, which I need for intensive online matches (well, I don't need 100 fps, but I need guaranteed fluent gameplay
