Since they are working at full speed, they have been a bit slow on the news front, so felt the time was right for giving an update post.

For the time being they are releasing their changelog of what’s done so far and they will keep it up to date each time they fix an issue.

This way you’ll get some idea of what they’re doing and what can be expected.

They are still looking for help in the area of mapping as they need Clan Arena (scaled right), defrag type of maps (running, tricking with times) and trickjumping maps (teamtricking, solo tricking etc).

So if you got an urge to show your talent or want to contribute please join up #GT-Revolution @ quakenet IRC.

Stay tuned for more information……
