Q3 source port help
The bigger thing is that you need to build the binaries (game files like .exe and .dll) yourself off ioQuake3's GitHub. If you're not a programmer, and/or you're lazy, it's easier to grab the files off Quake3e's GitHub instead.
- My game (mac) plays like this only when in Borderless/Windowed mode. Help please

Would it be legal to re-make Quake (movements and guns)?
And so is the most popular fork (ioQuake3): https://github.com/ioquake/ioq3

Online games for eMac 1Ghz?
The Quake 3 engine was open sourced and people still make maps for it.
- are there tutorials for code organization for games in C?
- "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" is 70% Off on Steam. You can get it for $1.49 and play it standalone on Quest 2! Instructions in the comments

Making Quake From Scratch?
The source code for all of the Quake games is available on GitHub. They are the original source releases, but you might prefer to use a source port which implements more up-to-date platform abstractions (like SDL), supports 64-bit, and doesn't contain any assembly code. I'd recommend ioquake3.

On a more serious note, also check out https://github.com/ioquake/ioq3, which is a modernized version of quake 3!

Quake's lightning gun bug explained
It's not, but the DarkPlaces engine [0] reimplements many, if not all, of the realtime shadow features and has an X64 Mac build (but no ARM build, as far as I'm aware), and is still getting active contributions on its Github repo[1].

How to develop a game on the DarkPlaces engine?
Much of DP's development was centered about being a capable engine for new games, while remaining reasonably compatible with Quake. Also, DP's perceived abandonment seems to have been overcome, with DP now being hosted at https://github.com/DarkPlacesEngine/darkplaces with somewhat frequent updates. I guess that Wrath's development may be at play here.
