[quake3] Newbie questions

[Lonnie Cumberland]

Does this mean that the .rog format could, for example be textured onto 
one of the faces of a cube that might be rotating in the world?

If so, then where might I be able to learn more about these types of 
mods and examples? I would like to try and find some coding tutorials or 
examples some place if possible.

Also, is there any way to dynamically place 3D text into a world without 
stringing together a long line of objects that would slow the FPS?

Thanks again for answering my email on these questions and have a good 
night.
