Thanks to help messages I got, I forced -atf Quake addon to play via OpenGL
:))) Looks great! But, you were right... It is slow :( But now very slow. It
goes fast from time to time, but overall it is [imho] ~20% slower than nowmal
GLQuake.

This is the command I use and -ATF works:

GLQuakeWOS -width 512 -bpp 16 -mem 32 -maxsize 128 -game atf >nil:

If you know some GL tips, would be nice to hear about them :)

p.s. In demo mode, when the game shows its preview, there is 5 players running
and fighting all for one :) But in GL mode, the rest 4 players are not shown
'properly'. They look like... hmm... a baloon? :] Anyway, when the game
starts, enemies looks normal.
