Late June Update

Earlier today one of our main programmers left the team because he hasn't been able to put as much time into GTR as he wanted. We are proud to say sk4ut has been part of our team and his outstanding experience and skills will be missed. Therefore we wish him all the best and hope that he'll still drop by now and then

But as you can think this is for us a setback but not a killer, however there is a chance that we might pick up the same speed again once we've got another programmer aboard again.

So, if you are a Programmer and are interested in contributing or becoming a part of the Team, don't hesitate to leave us a msg either here, gtr@zhakal.com or via IRC #GT-Revolution @ Quakenet.

Till then the mod will be put on melting ice ^^, but I would like to take the chance to thank everybody who has helped out and hope that we can get through this period without much hassle.

Lately we've been able to have a good progress with some major issues resolved and more clarity of where we are headed.

We have optimized how the shadow optimizing is done and will be noticed if the map is compiled with the "dmap shadowopt X" where X is a number between 1 and 5. We suggest using 2 as it has provided best performance.

The former issue about precache has been resolved. So no more lag once a player joins or a weapon is fired for the first time. This will make the overall game feel a lot smoother.

Also there has been several smaller issues resolved and all are mentioned in the changelog

May 20th we released a map by mnemjc, Q4WXS1_REV.
The map is a CTF map for 4-8 people set in a ice cave with the support of DM, FFA, TDM, CTF, 1FCTF gametypes.

Also the progress on the mod is atm in full speed ahead. Much issues have been adressed in a short period of time, which is really good. If you want to know what have been changed the best place is to look in the changelog. More info/news will be posted when we're further along.

Finaly some help have been found. The area of help gotten is on the graphics front.

The user Stev3-Designs have joined our team and have contributed good in the short period of time. We have gotten some new simple-items with higher quality then the original which suits the mod and the game alot better.

We are still in search of more programming help to get the bugs/issues fixed:
LOOK HERE

On the mapping front Mnemjc have made a new GPM duel map that highlights the idtech 4's possibilities. The combination of both style and perfomance is just sweet. Screenshots will come in the upcomming days.

Thanks to sikkpin we have gotten a bit more pointers and help on the shader front to highlight the graphics but also fix the broken ambient light. It now hits the texture properly an lit the area much better. Performance wise it's a really good gain for all parts.
