    Many reached limits within the mapping tools and guidelines, and others the mappers just ran out of ideas and wanted to start a new map instead. Not all maps will be created. I know for one that hulk stopped because of mapping limits.

    There are limits, you know. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Anyhoo, source was lost during one of my (many, many, many) reformats...

    When I get some ideas I'll start a new one.

    I lost the source to both of them in a power surge, at the moment I've only rebuilt co_dante and I should be finished early next week.
    I'm not sure if I'll start ns_attrition again.

    yes, I imagined all this, of course...

    but I'm more like searching for a <i>"confirmation"</i> of these statuses by the mappers themselves... <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    That map was one of my first ever attempts at mapping, and I really had no intention of releasing it. However I am currently working on a new map and may use the same name.

    wow, im amazed to see my name on the list

    ns_attempt was, like it says, an attempt, it was my first attempt a mapping for NS, and I got burned out after awhile, it still have it and considered trying to recover it, however im currntly over worked with other things and only have time to work on my newer map co_interred

    ns_shiva was looking to be a great map and i would like to know what happened to it

    ns_hulk, Rendy is currenly w/o internet i think, but the map was simply to big and he had to stop, he said he will combine parts of it into other maps

    ns_nancy, ns_bast and more of the great maps have been lost with the evil <span style='color:red'>"source being lost/damaged syndrome"</span>
    My request:
    Please mappers, do like I do. Make backups!!! Backups I say... From my map I have like 5 backups if not more variating from cd-rw, hdd01 pc 1, hdd01&hdd2 pc2, laptop, usb stick, my backup acces @ college etc...
    And no I'm not paranoid i'm just extremely cautious. Not only hdd crashes and file damage is a problem, the virus is also dangerous...

    A these three maps are officially dead. Ns_Overture actually turned into Co_Overture, and was more or less finished, but it didn't exactly turned out as I wanted, so I chose not to release it. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    wow, I didn't even bother checking to see if I was on the list. Kinda suprised that a map made it there. As it is kerberos managed to sprawl into something much larger than a co_ level.... but maybe i'll work it out anyways. Especially if someone actually cares to see it finished. Needed a distraction from current projects anyways.

    I'm actually suprised and quite flattered that people remember (and possibly care about) the existence of this map.

    Don't worry, it's not dead. After I get co_halo done, Spirit will return...

    I wish like anything I had more time to map these days. I'm taking 61 units this semester, which is supposed to translate int 61 hours of work per week. 12 of those 61 units are 'Operating System Design and Implementation' which has a reputation for being a 40 hour a week class all unto itself.

    I most certainly haven't given up on it. I'm a bit flattered that people remember it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->.
