Hello Community!

The Workshop forge-fires continue to blaze! We have been hard at work since release and we still have a LONG list of things that needs doing. Today, we want share some updates with you.

Table of Contents:

• User Rank Customization
• Awards Display Management
• Promotional Banner Rotator

Our old interface was rather dated. So we've updated the customize rank interface. Here you can see the list of changes.

• Members can now see all available rank icons in larger versions.
• Dragon and Demon rank icons have been added.
  • Unlock Dragon rank icons by having the corresponding amount of uploaded resources.
  • Unlock Demon rank icons by having the corresponding amount of contest wins.
• Icons you haven't unlocked yet are greyed out.
• We have included the requirement to unlock a specific rank under each respective icon.
• You can now see how it's going to look on your profile right away in the live preview.
• You now also get a notification when you have unlocked a new rank icon! (Coming soon)

NOTICE - Additional ranks and banners will be added soon. More info will come later.

NOTICE - "Wins" means 1st, 2nd or 3rd placement in contest.

Why have so many medal awards if you can't show them to the world? Don't worry, we got you covered.

• We have changed the award showcase limit of 4 to unlimited.
• Members can now display ALL their awards if he/she so chooses.
• Members can still customize the order in which awards are displayed on his profile.

We prefer ads that are relevant for our community! Thusly, we have added a custom ad-rotator that will feature our own ads! This includes but is not limited to project spotlights! Many map makers want more people to play their maps, and this is a great way for your map project to get more exposure and more players to play your map!

For a small fee (see table below), members can get their own banner shown in our ad-rotator. We also allow animated GIF banners up to 2,5 MB. Hosted projects get this privilege free of charge (one of the perks of project hosting).

Members are allowed to design the banners themselves, provided they have the skill.
Our Advertising Policies provide guidance on what types of ad content are allowed. When advertisers place an order, each ad is reviewed against these policies. If you think that your ad was mistakenly disapproved, you can request a review of the decision in Admin Contact.



Estimated daily views are based upon our internet traffic.

In celebration of reaching 99.000 members and Hive's 17th anniversary, we have decided to make a special LIMITED TIME ONLY community shirt! Don't miss this chance for your name to be immortalized!

Members who give 3$ before October 20th will get their name on the banner guaranteed. All other names will be backfilled prioritised by highest level.


The final shirt will be available for purchase after the deadline October 20th and will come in black, white and red versions. Members who give 3$ will get an equal discount as a coupon.

The reason for this "pre-order" is to make sure that anybody who wants a shirt gets their name on it.
