If I remember correctly the only time that comes into play is if you're 
using a dll for the ui rather than a qvm.  RA3 used dlls for everything 
so you had to set vm_ui to 0 (along with ui_game and ui_cgame).  That 
just tells Q3 not to use the qvms.
The qvm files are just cross OS interpretable compiled libararies for 
Quake 3.  Quake Virtual Machine.
Are you encountering an error somewhere? 
Why exactly are you asking this question?
