Yes, among other things. I'm really busy at the moment IRL, including getting a new job and moving cities, so poor old Grave 2 is on the backburner for a while. Sorry folks!

what jitspoe really did there was give you a subtle hint that he wants to see the map finished...

And I think you started before this topic. So how long have you been making it? Are you even working on it?
I'm looking forward to this map, but I hope I won't wait forever :P.

To be honest I hope this map is never finished. Nothing against you Dag but the first Grave was awful, why remake a crappy map?

Its been in production over a year, but hasn't been touched since August 08. Currently dag has many more commitments with work, but after some pushing he has decided to continue to work on the map in the little time he has spare.

To be honest I hope this map is never finished. Nothing against you Dag but the first Grave was awful, why remake a crappy map?

Thats exactly what I said. I think because its popular with many of the pub players he wanted to actually make a properly textured map with proper lighting and no overlapping brushes. Maybe to set an example to aspiring mappers.

That's about the size of it, Reed!

At the risk of going further OT... I don't have too much time these days to dedicate to mapping, I've been dividing the time I have spent on mapping between Grave 2 and an as-yet unnamed map project. Abnormal, you're right - I'm not sure the exact figure, but by now it's substantially over a year! Perhaps posting this thread was a bit premature...

Clipz, you've got a fine point - I think the idea behind Grave and some of the incidental details that have made it popular are bulletproof for pub play. It's easy to understand and pick up - it's got essentially instantly-understandable mechanics. When Reed made Grave, both our mapping abilities were in their infancy, now I think I can do it justice. When it comes to the principles of map-making I have some quite strong beliefs about quality and quality control, things that take quite a lot of time.

If I could ask you guys to hold off posting about the map too much for a bit, I'll post a proper discussion thread in the mapping section with some more media soon enough.

Cheers!

Dag

Personally and since the first time i played it(2006) i always liked Grave , that was our home map with my old clan . It's not a problem if this idea about Grave 2 is dead , i would have more fun with the first version . Mythic map and mythic mappers/players .God guys you should come back in this game as players , this game needs old legends ; i don't forget all these players , where are you =S .
