(updated on 25th April 2009)
1. Name: Snowreal
2. Version: 1.5
3. Compatibility: PC, PS3
4. Description:
Snowreal is a 3rd person Snowboarding Mod for Unreal Tournament 3. Race down one of 4 massive-scale maps or show your spectacular skills in a trick competition. Switch from vast snow landscapes to a tension-packed ride over dangerous lava streams down a volcano, back to an tricky alpine slalom course.
With version 1.5, Snowreal now features a whole new racing gametype with only one rule: Whoever reaches the finish line first, wins. To help you with this task, you are equipped with the brand new snow cannon to knock your opponents off their boards. Beware, as there are various obstacles on the course that could block your way anytime. And that's not all. There are many more features, such as: enhanced visuals, optimized splitscreen experience, and grinding! You are able to grind on anything you come across - metal, stone, wood etc.
For fans of the good old time trial mode and trick competition, there still is the "Snowreal Time Trial" gametype.
Have fun boarding, and may your enemy eat snow ;-)

Just tilt your Sixaxis Controller left and right and enjoy the ride. You can still get your Free Camera by pressing 'Fire' two times. - Cruise Control for the Snowboard.

It also points you to the next checkpoint in racing mode. - Bot Support - Bots will roam around randomly on the snowboard. Don't expect them to race. =) - Onscreen Nametags - show you who you're racing against. Minor Adjustments: - Trick system has been polished so you don't fall off your board if you release your mousebutton at last 20% of a flip. - When you fall off your board your character won't slide down so far anymore. - Changed chat color to red. - Disabled damage when using Towcable - Your camera mode won't toggle back and forth while boarding. - Increased the walkable slope for players. - Hillclimber Scorpion is much more fun to drive now.
