Urban Zone League, Sign Up Now!
The signups for the 8th Urban Zone CTF League and our brand new TS League are now open. We hope that the TS League will be as successful as the CTF league and also create an increase in the amount of ts clans. Signups are, as always, open to everybody, but we will create localized divisions if there are enough clans signed up from one geographical location.
People and clans that want to take part in the TS League will need to register again, we are in the process of going to a newer version of the league management software, sorry for the inconvenience.
Also the winners of the Winter Cup have been announced, Tw// took the gold, |it| silver and [US] bronze.

Tombs and the Benelli M4 Make a Video
The team here at FrozenSand is proud to announce that we have finally found Urban Terror 4.2 after many months of searching high and low for just the right combination of the everything that we knew was in the mix of raw material.
To start putting things back together BladeKiller's map “Tombs” was selected to be the first tech map that was to include the graphics improvement provided by TwentySeven and the total map was cut down to size to make the improvements more manageable from the ground up.
The first problem to overcome was developing a new and different way of lighting the map that worked best with the addition of bump and spec mapping and I can only tell you from my observation BladeKiller had a rather daunting task ahead of her.
Well needless to say you can see how well her hard work paid off by viewing the excellent work Decoy put into producing the very first HQ demo of what 4.2 will look like and even excel with in the coming months.

The videos are the real deal and we on the team are finally happy that we are now on the downhill side of this massive mountain called Urban Terror 4.2.

Cambridge is Reborn!
Cambridge has been, for the veterans of Urban Terror, a very memorable map. Not too long ago Delirium got in contact with the original author (raunchy) to seek permission to re-do the map, which came out as a success. Here are some preview shots to show off, there is more work to do yet but please feel free to comment on this thread in the forum. Delirium would love any feedback you give him.

Important Security Update
This is a very important security update. About 2 months ago we released a security fix for the Vote System expoilt that allowed people to steal control of your servers. Up until now the damage has been minimal, however, there are now people activly using this method in Europe and in which case most likely to spread almost everywhere!
It is very important that all server admins use the new server binary. At the moment we only have this file for linux in 32bit. This can be found here. I have had reports from many people within the community about there servers being stolen.
All future released of Urban Terror will have this patch included. If you do not use the above binary, i strongly suggest turning voting off. Thanks!
