Post the comparison and the differences of the development of these games here. You can include the game and engine differences of both.
I've heard that ioQuake3 has things that doesn't support 64-bit for compilation or something like this. Also, I was thinking of developing a mod within Quake 3, but it can be a bit difficult to do. I share a link about this here: https://gregs-blog.com/2008/01/24/how-to...arena-mod/
I enjoyed and played a mod which was started to be developed in 2001, but the source code of this mod was lost and never released...
I see some differences between game and engine sides of these developments. There is a link that explains the source code of Quake 3, about its ways of compiling and architecture: https://fabiensanglard.net/quake3/
As for programming languages, I think that Quake 3 seems written in ANSI C, Xonotic has 2 parts: C for the engine and QuakeC for the game.
I don't know what the details of the differences are missing or what I don't perceive, I see that Quake 3 looks old and Xonotic seems to use an improved engine called Darkplaces that seems to come from Quake 1 which I think is older than Quake 3.
