Timer & Tricksurf are removed. They were both built on legacy code and content which has all been stripped out to significantly reduce Fragsurf's download size on Steam (from nearly 9gb to less than 3gb).

These gamemodes may come back in the future on the new codebase & content systems. For now, our main focus is combat surf.

We've published a beta branch on Steam that allows you to play the latest build before these gamemodes were removed. Right click Fragsurf -> Properties -> Betas -> tricksurf. Note, servers on latest versions will not let you connect while using an older build.
