Hive 2

[Deleted member 219079]

Was it a joke or is it really happening? I saw a pic of it once, nothing else after that. Would love to see more stuff of it. Also will there be a Starcraft 2 race-based theme? Zerg for example, my favourite.

Yes I know this sounds like "do this do that yadada" arrogant post, but I'm just curious.

To my knowledge it is, slowly, happening.

 

[SpasMaster]

Weird, I haven't seen any screenshots.

It was ages ago, I guess about model viewer or download button or something.

It was ages ago...

I don't know if I consider 2012 ages ago, but sure.

There is a progress thread about the site in the dark recesses of the Mod's Lobby,
but if you want to know any more I reckon you'll have to talk to Ralle, as I am not
allowed to share any information that thread contains.

Alright, I understand.

2012? I think the first time I heard talks of Hive 2 was 2011, at the very least. In spite of that,

(...)We're family friendly, damnit. Give us some spoilers.

I also had the privilege to look into some of the screenshots posted in Mod's Lobby, but people were mostly complaining about superficial stuff like brown being a little too green and whatnot, instead of the actual layout.

The veeeery early alpha stuff I saw was transmitted by Ralle directly on one of those sites that allows you to live broadcast. I wasn't too impressed by the looks of it, didn't voice it, but Ralle understood I wasn't liking too much what I was seeing. If the layout is as interesting as that public screenshot that Archian posted, then I like it.

I did so in the past and I'll recommend it again about the like/dislike thing: discuss it with the community before implementing. That and several other features. I had a list with quite a few points about things that should be rethought about the Hive. I don't know if I still have it. It included things such as reputation and resource comments.

That really sounds like a rumor. Anyone could photoshop it, and I don't think we need this to come into notice.

BTW, I use Terran just because it looks much better. (cleaner/neater)

It is not rumor. Ralle said multiple times in the past that he is working on the site, but it is a slow process.

 

[Rheiko]

i should say, it'll be great if that does really happen

 

[Turnro]

Will this new site be Starcraft 2 specific only? You have me curious here...

 

[Rheiko]

i hope that's not the only one

 

[Ralle]

If you know me, you know that I most of the time never take away existing stuff, rather add more instead. Hive 2 will be the current Hive in better technological shape and with SC2 (and space for more platforms) as a first class citizen along with Warcraft.

 

[SpasMaster]

I can just say that the screenshot preview looks really, really nice. I like the "More models by" section aswell the clear position of the download button. In general a nicely laid out and good looking changes.

 

[Rheiko]

agree with spasorc

@ralle
Cool words as i expect from our chief

 

[DESTROYER123]

Will this become a whole new site or just this one upgraded (so we don't lose account names etc)?

 

[Ralle]

It will just be an upgrade to the site.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Ya, it will be UI revamp based on what I've heard.

 

[Linaze]

I'll be damned if Hive 2 comes out before Warcraft IV....

Oh well; I'm actually looking forward to seeing this site getting a well-worth facelift after having hung around here for quite some time. I'm just hoping we haven't all waited for a bunch of cosmetics.

 

[Rui]

My primary worry is actually loss of functionalities.

why's that so?

 

[Rui]

Reminds me, for example, when Pyritie changed the [Solved] prefix system for the World Editor Help Zone to something else and basically blew my 3 years work. I don't know if it was ever restored, but I think not, so yeah. Sometimes, people with a less discerning eye tend to miss small, yet possibly important things.

 

[Rheiko]

sorry for asking this, because i'm new to this site
how's the [solved] prefix system work before?

Oh no :/ Hope that wont happen.

 

[Rui]

The [Solved] prefix has always worked the same way. In vB, you can create "groups of prefixes" and apply only one of them to a forum. For example, in WEHZ, the current prefix group has the prefixes [Solved], [Import], [General] and so. Because one forum can only have 1 prefix group at a time, changing the prefix group for a specific forum will cause all the threads in that forum to lose their current prefix. That's what happened when Pyritie made changes.

 

[Rheiko]

i see, thanks for the information

 

[Deleted member 219079]

*Warcraft V

 

[Malhorne]

Warcraft IV*
Warcraft V will come out in 2042 XD

 

[TriggerHappy]

A little late on the reply lol

Anyway, people should just stop worrying about these things.
The new version of THW will be out when/if it's ready.

 

[Malhorne]

Oh sorry for the necro posting :/

Ya you're right I think we just have to stay still until kingdom come ... website come ^^

 

[Kazeon]

currently hiveworkshop is already awesome. hive is the greatest forum I have ever seen. It supports very2 numerous features. Just like 3D viewer, you will never find it anywhere else..

 

[Binsu]

Hive 2 interests me so much. I like the new looks in it, so neat and organized. God, I wish this will be released earlier.

Wait, wha--- How? >.>

- You're not supposed to know that.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

I linked a sneak peek picture, on the page 1. So he might know something...

[Binsu]

^ Exactly...

 

[Deleted member 219079]

- You're not supposed to know that.

And there's nothing to fancy about the fact you mods ain't gonna share the development progress with the community.

I think it was a bad thing to even tell about Hive 2 this early, you make everyone wait, and waiting's not funny. Especially when we don't know the current progress.

I hear ya'.

Expect a sneak preview in the news section next week

 

[Malhorne]

Oh cool~

 

[Deleted member 219079]

That actually sounds pretty sweet

 

[chobibo]

 

[Deleted member 219079]

I can't reply to your VM:s, chobibo :/

 

[chobibo]

Oh, sorry about that.
EDIT: Fixed, you can reply now.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Thanks a lot, but I'm afraid I won't be answering that VM. I don't want to reply to a picture of lips, it's scary man xD

 

[RED BARON]

I'll look forward to the sneak peak - and hope that this current theme can be kept even when Hive changes. I like to stick with the old style

 

[Orcnet]

And there's nothing to fancy about the fact you mods ain't gonna share the development progress with the community.

But we mods want to make this a surprise to you guys, fufu I make seppuku now!

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Surprises are indeed nice, but my point was making us wait with no information at all, only by saying you're on it last year (I joined 2012, it might of been earlier). There was that picture which Archian posted (why's he treating us this kindly lol), other than that nothing.

No don't seppuku all the staff on hive have probably been told not to share any information with users.

 

[Ralle]

I hear ya'.

What the hell man, who allowed you to say that? Oh well, let's see what you will show them.

 

[Dr Super Good]

What the hell man, who allowed you to say that?

He is the almighty Archian, he needs no to permission!

I wonder if anything has become of the Diablo/Sc2 themes. They were never really finished.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

I truly wonder what does it look like.

Maximum width of about 1000 pixels (wow forum) with a fancy background would look neat! It's a simple value in CSS, width-max. Works fine with width in percents, it just stops stretching at width of given pixels. Maybe 1500 or something...

 

[Rheiko]

this is the next week and there is no sneak preview in news section =|
