Q3:TA Gold! -- 8:53 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

id's Robert Duffy updated his .plan with the long-awaited news that Quake III: Team Arena has officially gone gold! Here's the rest of the story:

Team Arena is Gold. :-)

Some other things coming down the pipe from us in the near future.

Source code was made available earlier today to MOD authors so they can prepare their mods to be compatible with the 1.27 point release. This will help get everyone up on the same rev of the game at the same time. The point release ( 1.27 ) will be released a day or two before Team Arena hits shelves

As soon as Team Arena is on shelves, full tool source code will be released as well as new executables and I beleive Graeme will be releasing the ROQ compiler as well. These are all good things. I am going to get Timothee and the GTKRadiant crew tool source in a day or so, so they can prepare that flavor of the editor and tools for the masses.

The official combined game source will be released during the same time period as the tools. This will be the integrated Q3A and TA source base.

id's Todd Hollenshead also updated his .plan with a bit more information on Q3:TA's goldness:

We expect that it may begin showing up at shops like EB and Babbages as early as Friday the 15th. It may take a bit longer for stores like Best Buy, CompUSA, etc. to get it in. You should check with your local retailer to see if/when they will be getting their supply in.
. . .
We're still working on Mac and Linux, but Demos for those (as well as binaries) should be available "soon".

One word: GIMME!
