    can't type in chatroom, it says i'm spamming

    i'll wait for a while

    people also think that I'm monopolizing the DCs and have the moderators under my thumb
    i'm just tired of dealing with it
    if I remove everything, no more complaints >.>
    not going to review anything either, people are complaining about that too

    I think Judotrente doesn't cares about the Rules.

    I LIKE it! Nevertheless, I'm still curious why we removed the icon borders. The hammer being half-cut at the top doesn't look soooo good, but I don't mind.

    Buildings *shouldn't* really have walk animations. Save for ancients (night elven buildings, like Tree of Life), but I doubt people make them, so that could be one criteria. Another one could be the presence of the Stand Work animation, which is played during upgrades and unit production, so a double check for a lack of walking animation and presence of working animation could separate buildings from other models.

    Dissipate is the animation when a Hero dies and gets lifted up in the air, while regular units have Decay animations. Some people like to add to their models both a decay and a dissipate animation so the model can be used both as a unit and a Hero.

    As for team coloring, units and buildings in general possess some form of team color, but there are certain unit/building models which for obvious reasons (one unit per map, key characters, etc.) don't have team color.

    If it's possible, you can go through a number of beta stages for sorting during development. The whole system would require a rather complicated algorithm as far as I can predict. You can go for automatic sorting if conditions x, y and z are met, but, for instance, if conditions x and z are met, but not y, then a moderator should confirm sorting. That could be one way of doing it, but I'm no programmer. I'm sure you can think of something better if possible.

    That would be a bit difficult. One way to do it is to analyze bone names and if there are bones which contain certain strings (hand, foot, leg, pelvis, chest, etc.) can safely be considered units. Doodads on the other hand mostly lack bones and the system could consider them doodads. With buildings it can be a bit tricky. Now, if we put into the equation the fact that there is no standardized nomenclature of bones this makes everything very very tricky and hard.

    We can tell Heroes apart from other units, though, through the presence of "Dissipate" animation. I have yet to think of a possible way to tell units apart from buildings and destructibles in general.

    In any case, the system should be semi-automatic if it were to be added because of all these factors. When the moderator moderates the model, they should be prompted to approve the model sorting or assign it manually.

    Well, If I added you on skype you will never comeback online if you're added on my contacts? Oh well :< I wanted to add you cause when I'm having questions about glitches and some site sheet it would be really quick. But - You can add a List for Hive staff and Hive users, That's what I do to my skype.

    Well, thank you for the offer, Ralle :) But I will pass. Hostbots block existing human-hosted games from being joined. Don't ask how many times people didn't see my host because it was full with bots that were blocking me. I don't wanna contribute to this "madness". That's my position and opinion though. Nevertheless, thanks again. :)

    I am not really interested in Hostbots. In my opinion they are killing the already dying warcraft community.

    Hello Ralle, when I want to write my signature, even in tabs, it says my text is too long after some lines.

    May it be possible that in Hive2 this limitation would be set to a larger amount of lines?

    Hi Chieftain!
    I have a thing I've worked on for a couple of days to suggest to the Hive and improve that. Some more chat members helped me to correct that. Please visit THW chat when you will be free so I can pass it to you.
    Thanks :)

    Haha thanks for that.
    At the moment I'm exploring it and trying to set it up as I want it.
    It such huge difference with SMF that I need to search a lot :p.

    Anyway good to know you're doing fine!
    I'm doing fine as well ;).
    I'll be waiting for your Hive 2 and I am pretty curious about it.

    Until then!
