Like my ioQuake3-PS4 port, this one aims to port Quake 3 Arena on PS3. Compared to the PS4 port, this one has many less features and due to the console's not-so-friendly architecture I had to deal with many more limitations, but It's overall playable.
AI has been used to assist me in this project. I won't share my CLAUDE.MD, but you can find the details of which AI models I used, and their respective role. I hope this will help and encourage more developers or people trying to approach this field in a much less intimidating way. Be aware that the approach was the same for basically every Quake 3 port I made.
Main features:
INSTALLATION:
Place your pak files inside /dev_hdd0/data/ioq3/baseq3/ for Quake 3, /dev_hdd0/data/missionpack/ for Team Arena, /dev_hdd0/data/ioq3/baseoa/ for Open Arena.

Hardened code's skill module is mandatory. Without it, AI will hallucinate a lot and will either introduce issues or regressions.
Sonnet 4.6 did good chunk of the work code-wise. It would often struggle with more advanced things (ex. renderer). If it struggled or introduced regressions when implementing something, I would instantly swap to Opus to continue
Opus 4.6 does the much more complex stuff, then code review and comment trimming.
Codex although not mandatory does the double check on code.
