ok! We are now playing around with client version 0.008 and still using our v1.0 server.

New hover model:
I finally finished modeling a new hover that will end up in the game. This new design is more slick and looks pretty good. Now I just must take the time to texture it.

New MP3 player:
I actually sat down and coded for about 6 hours
to get it right. Now players can copy their favorite mp3's into a library. When the game starts it checks the mp3-library and adds them to an array. The player can then use play/stop/next/prev/vol_up/vol_down-functions to play the songs. Observe that only one mp3 at a time are active in memory!

New bullets and collisions:
Lavin has worked har on these things and it works good. We have discussed alot about this issue. As this is an on-line game should the server or the clients tell when some one gets hit by a bullet? In the end the best way is for the server to calculate this.

COMING UP!
Well the things we will work on now is boosts (speed, health, weapons etc), damage/health.
I have a lot of GFX to work on too.

Well at last Lavin has solved the communication problem that delayed the first playable client.
In the newest test version (v0005) an intro,
cockpit view and speed-o-meter has been added.

In our next face will add some good looking arenas and weapons.

We have not yet released a playable demo as we
think its a little bit to early, but soon we will give all of you a first look.

Well isn't computer just great? The answer: Yes, as long as the hardware don't break! My mother board got fried last friday and
I have not yet been able to reclaim a new one...So there will be
a few more days before more 3D models can be found for public viewing.
Im hoping to get a new mother board tomorrow so this mess will be cleared up, as my lead coder (that has been on vacation) thinks
I have been finishing up ALL art and models....yikes! :)
