    Hello !

    Sorry to disturb you but i see in many forum pages that we can change the language of the game by changing the Locale and Region registery values, and even in this thread which you ve used to centralize all the W3 versions of the game, it says in the thread:

    If someone needs to start @dq11 's Chinese 1.31.1 client: you must first switch the language in registry, else you'll get a black screen. Simplified Chinese is zhCN. Afterwards, change to your normal language.
    Considering that it's a retail version of the game i cleared my registery then edited this key:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\Classic Launcher\w3] "Locale"="MYREGIONCODE"
    I made sure to do it even for the w3t and w3b keys even though it's not required and even then I still cannot have any other language working aside from enUS and the chinese ones. What can I do please ?

    Best regards,
    Ralle

    I never tried, so I don't know.
    Hello, please consider to provide a file filter of compessed files (zip, 7z or rar) for Tools content uploader. Thanks a lot.
    Hello again. Sorry for the spammering.
    Could you make a popup for new users to get this info before they can upload a map? (wtii's map upload tutorial).
    Could you also force these new users to first click on this info panel first before enabling them to upload a map? (should be done for all resources I think).

    That's not gonna work. WTii's tutorial is for an outdated version of the site :)

    When you upload a map you are faced with info on the rules:

    Before submission, please familiarize yourself with the resource submission rules. Certain submissions may result in penalties.

    We could highlight the last bit in red perhaps.

    If it can simply be bypassed it won't matter. Most don't care and click upload.
    Hey. This might sound cheesy but could you make it so that if a user's post is marked as review, it gets some +xp? (if possible, exclude reviewers/mods).
    Ralle
    Ralle
    Hmmmm! Interesting. One problem is that we don't track backwards who used to be staff so as soon as someone leaves, all their reviews would get exp. Aside from that I think it's a really cool idea.
    Hey. I can't reply to the convo, can't even post on threads actually. Don't understand what's going on.
    Anyways, I was waiting for the campaign to be finished or near completion before approving it.

    I broke the site. Nothing to see here, move along :)
    Hey. How do download counts appear? Are they based on individual files downloaded from a bundle also or only when users do it via the big DOWNLOAD button?
    I'm asking because if it's the latter, it would be unfair for maps or campaign threads which bundle various game versions (i.e. Reforged and non- or pre-Reforged).
    Ralle
    Ralle
    Downloads are deduped so if someone downloads 5 things from a bundle, it counts as one.
    deepstrasz

    Sweet. Thanks. That's good.
    Hello.

    Lately I've been thinking about something that I think would be a good addition to the forum, in the maps section I would add a subforum for new authors. It doesn't make much sense, seeing the high level of the great authors of the forum, to compare themselves face to face, with the same "rules" so to speak, with those who are just starting out. I think this would help a lot, since in this subforum, under other standards and keeping in mind that these are works by newbies, they would not receive the devastating reviews that often make them abandon content creation.

    Well, I just wanted to leave the recommendation here.

    Regards.
    Hey. Uploading to the Sounds section is tad creepy. It's somewhat bearable you have to upload file by file, but you also have to name the file since the code doesn't automatically read it from the file and moreover you can't name it too long. Ugh.

    How long is too long? It should be the same for all sections.

    I feel it should be around 100 characters. If it's a featuring, more names might be written before a song's tile which itself could be 3 or more words. And if it's a remake/remix you'll have the editor's name between parantheses xD
    But seriously, it should just read the file's name and put that instead.
    I hope 'Races' has a Demon. Why are the races of these Demon models all Undead? 😭

    Could have sworn we had a demon race or used to have one but apparently not (anymore)...
    Definitely should be rectified, I concur.

    For those looking for a Demon model. It takes several times or even more than ten times the time. I think the previous' Races' were pretty good.

    Perhaps subcategories are a good choice?
    Would you mind sharing your experience and give some thoughts about the map rather than just my favourite 5/5?

    Three years have passed since HIVE "facelifting" and just today I have realized, that there is no Human theme for the site. 🤣 Silly me! 🙂 Anyway it would be nice addition.
    Hey. Is there a way to do an automated rating removal for ported material? Some stuff is uploaded in the wrong section, rated and when moved to the Ported, the rating remains.

    You can report it, I can help with that.
    Hey. Ugh, now I get notifications if I set one of my posts as a review. Sometimes I do that if I forget to write it directly in Moderate.
    What did he update? The last update was in 2022.

    Why did he bump to top of listings? Is it because of Artemin's' Blackhand the Destroyer '?

    Their title names are the same.

    I guess this may be a Bug.


    Any weird updates today? My account's acting funny. See report please.

    Hello. Would it be possible to automate the adding of the dummy user Blizzard Entertainment to all Ported resources that have the tag or mention they've been ripped from Blizzard games?
    Hey man. Can we have a bit of a tweak/toggle for the resource search? For instance if I search Medivh it will show some models which have that word in their description but which have nothing to do with a Medivh inspired/related model. So, could the search just filter out the description besides the part where its related to keywords and also consider the model and the resource thread name?
    Hello Ralle, can "hidden" buttons be centered? I tried many things to center them but it doesn't work. I remember they could be centered before HIVE got update but now they just scoot all the way to the left of the screen. They don't work under center BB code either.
    All deleted maps appear in the deleted maps list again, rather than the newest ones. Since the update.
    Ralle

    Isn't that a good thing though? :)

    It is in a way yes. It would be neat if I could actually filter them by last month or so since sorting by date and stuff doesn't quite work well as some might have been uploaded years back but deleted recently.
    Hi. We can't see anyone's resources anymore. And I can't see any of my resources on the homepage either. What happened here? Currently. No one in our China region can see the resources. I don't know what the situation is in other regions.
    Is it because of this update "Make user resources show stacking resources by default."??

    Thank you for your repair. However, the pending resources are still not displayed.
    Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised to find that there were nearly a thousand additional pages of resources (It turned out to be less than a hundred pages). It seems that many hidden works have been restored. However, it is currently unclear which resources can be displayed. I tried to open the resource panel of Murlocologist. I couldn't find the icon he deleted.
    Hey. I might have asked this but don't quite remember.
    Is it possible to make it so that you can see the other users who reacted? Now, it's currently only possible to see the ones that appear in the first part of the list.

    Last I talked to someone about this it seemed like the page had been open for a while and some Ajax-y thing loaded a new message or something. As if page time is old because it's long ago it was reloaded but some content is newer than that. Does that seem to make sense?
    Hey. I am not sure but from what I saw, resources like those from Sounds don't show in View in Use Resources. Is there any possibility for these to appear there?
    Hello. Would it be possible to add a feature for conversations to show that there are still other unviewed messages above the last one as in threads? Currently, you can miss some posts above in convos if you don't scroll each time.

    Hi Ralle, I'd like to request an account deletion.
    I don't actively use hive anymore, and wouldn't want people on the internet to trace my identity back to a website I used when I was 13.
    (There is some personally identifiable information scattered across old posts. I really would want to avoid being doxxed).

    I know Hive doesn't allow user's to delete their accounts, but it should be well within a user's right to take their content off the internet.
    I would've sent you a PM, but with the new UI, IDK how to do that.

    Hey. Also Ticking Awaiting Update in Models leaves me with 79 search pages instead of 81 without Awaiting Update also checked. It's weird.
    Did you change it for good?

    Tried downloading InsaneMonster's Undead Campaign Act I and it did say it was downloading then "FAILED!!!"

    Was kinda really annoyed by that, and it's slightly a problem too...

    a digital character that some streamer people use instead of their camera. the amount of movement they can do varies with programs, but they are nifty. the particular format i've chosen to edit is rather easy with just Blender and Unity editor

    Is there a way to save/favorite/bookmark stuff for future use? I know its possible to bookmark threads but i dont see a way for maps / models etc. would be nice
    Oh yeah... Didn't think of that.
    How about reply directly to description of bundle? It's basically first post in a thread.
    Hey Ralle, I didn't want to hijack the thread in site discussion for the "oops-- problem" issue since I wasn't sure if it is the same issue. Had another of those messages pop up when trying to access someone's profile: YYY
    This person was unable to upload maps (not a size related issue) to paste because they kept getting an error saying they didn't have permission to do that. And when I try adding their name to a map as author, it won't allow me to select them.
    Was just was curious if this was related to the thread in site discussion or not. It doesn't appear to be a privacy issue.
    Hey, I've been getting some site errors trying to access the site since yesterday: Buggy self portrait

    Things feel a little bit quiet as of the last few months, but generally things have been alright. Reforged gave modding a boost but it was not a silver bullet.

    Hey. Is there a way to tick with one click all the pre-1.32 map filter tags? I can't seem to find something like that. I'm asking because simply searching by SD or not including the Reforged tag doesn't mean said maps aren't saved on 1.32+ versions and many users consider 1.32+ Reforged even if on SD/Classic mode/graphics.
