Dear Stargate Mod Fans,it's been a while and for that we'd like to apologize. We have been very busy in our lives and have had rather few active team members over the last few months so writing news has fallen a bit short.
We have spent all of our available time working on the mod though and behind the scenes the beta tests are going well thanks to our active testing community.
We're playtesting three times a week and all this testing has allowed us to resolve up to 300 issues and feature requests so far!
Feature improvements cover a wide variety of aspects including game crashes, compatibility issues, missing files, anti-cheat measures, gameplay and balancing issues. Occasionally we encounter some quite funny errors such as players getting locked inside a ring transporter that won't retract anymore.  |

Among others, we thank the following beta testers for their continued efforts in improving the quality of the mod (in alphabetical order): 417, Cillit_Bang, Dedalus@Coe, Officer Red, Redline, skillmaster, swatty.
During the past months, we were able to increase the quality and number of maps we will be rolling out with the mod. We have also refined our game modes that are specifically designed around the Stargate universe and will guarantee gaming pleasure for enthusiasts as well as people having their first with the world of Stargate.

More on our game modes another time, right now we'll show you one of
Fuzyhead's new creations, working title
Fallen City.
A huge city on a former mining planet abandoned by the Goa'uld decades ago after nearly depleting all resources of interest to the false gods. The inhabitants who were left behind developed out of their slave existence and with the arrival of an SG-Team technology, medicine and resources were exchanged. This however got the attention of the Goa'uld and the planet's people didn't stand a chance despite its progress.
When the battle was lost, major parts of the city were destroyed. After the Goa'uld motherships left the planet's orbit the Stargate Teams returned to the planet to fight the remaining Jaffa. The battle for the fallen city continued.
I would again like to point out that this team at the moment only has a few dedicated and active developers working on the mod itself and we would like to enlarge our team again. Most notably we are
looking for prop modelers/animators and mappers. If you think you have the appropriate qualifications then please do not hesitate to
contact us! If you know someone who might be interested, please tell him/her. It's really fun and you can become part of a non-profit project and gain important experience in your game-related line of work!
Please understand that we are currently not accepting additional testers. We have received so many applications that we now have a rather large pool of beta testing candidates to choose from. Thank you for all who have shown their support and interest thus far! However, we might come back to you at a later point in time if you want to
apply as a tester now.
See you soon.
