The only problem with this version is that it requires the servers to be modded with it as well. It overhauls the game textures even more and has some improvements regarding widescreen support (bigger weapons for example). There's also another way with the use of Q3 Spearmint engine (which is based on ioQuake3 and that's why the mod page states that it's ioQuake3).
Basically with these mods you'll have access to almost all Q3 servers that are still working. You can download ioQuake3 engine and mod it with new, shiny icons and textures which don't interfere with online play. There are two ways to mod Q3, but only one allows to play on the most of available servers. Blurry textures are worse than pixelated ones, so of course I decided to find some mods. The game servers are filled mostly with bots unfortunately, but I'll give it a try on the weekend and I'm pretty sure that I'll find some people still playing this game in 2020. I was wandering whether there are people still playing it. Yup, the multiplayer mostly game from 2000. Now I decided to take one more trip to the past and installed Q3 Arena. You've probably noticed my other thread in which I suggested some great mods which overhaul the graphics and gameplay of Q1.
