General
Racesow is a popular race modification for the first person shooter Warsow, developed since 2006. It is the ultimate Warsow racing experience, designed for both new and experienced players. Racesow is played by over 10,000 active players, the community website (www.warsow-race.net) has 1,000 registered members.
Physics of the game are faithful to Warsow base physics, and were only carefully optimized to enable better tricking and racing. Racesow is supported by Racenet, a friendly and competitive racing community ( Warsow-race.net<). A high-end database system was coded for Racesow to enable real-time statistics over a network of game servers.
Today the racesow team consists of six active developers and many people from the community are helping us in several ways.
