    It looks like the only mention, but I haven't read the article itself yet. I just thumbed through it and looked at all the pretty pictures.

    The Open Source issue! Woohoo!

    finally figured out that the issues of that 3dWorld magazine come out an entire month behind the UK, so we won't get it here until next month.

    anyway, lots of things done while mapcore has been down.

    Pior Oberson is the first person to make some custom content for Zero Gear! He has modeled a new character and hat for the game which I got into the engine today, check it out!

    there should be some kind of power up where your car goes way up on its suspension and you can go over the person in front of you

    those are cool plane models, I am not sure where I could use them at the moment.

    Strange, considering it's a UK-based mag.Anywho, finally got around to reading it:

    A nice bit of progress you have there, too. I like the robot bunny ears.

    brilliant idea; mini pirate ship!

    do an image search for "soap box car" and there are a bunch of cool silly cars to get ideas from

    yea, a pirate ship would be ace. I am not sure how the sail would work, you can't have it obscuring the view of the player. I find a lot of awesome ideas by looking up vinyl toys on flickr. Wouldn't it be awesome to have some Zero Gear vinyl toys! I wonder how much it would cost to have some made . . .
