I have been playing NS for about 6 months, but am new to these forums and really like it but havent been playing recently due to being addicted to Planetside <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> . Anyway with all this NS2.0 news I am back and am gonna get it as soon as it comes out (tommorow isnt it). I have been reading a few of the threads and have read that NS_NANCY is being taken out of the new version. I just wondered why? I think it is a great map.

    The source file to ns_nancy was lost due to a hard-drive crash. As a result, it could not be updated to work with the new 2.0 code and so is pretty much rendered unplayable as onos. You just get stuck all the time. It's a shame, but they had to remove it.

    Numerous onos stuck problems. If you evolved you got stuck. Use a movement chamber and decided to start walking you got stuck. We all love the map, but it just wasn't working out. Problems couldn't be fixed because of locked source blah blah blah. Welcome to the forums btw.

    [edit: Dangit, beaten again. Oh well.]

    we'll all miss it, but it's time to say good-bye...

    unless, of course, you'd like to play nancy a bit before it goes away...

    WOW no nancy. That does suck. Although I had numerous onos stuck problems it was still a great map. That was one of my favs. Oh well maybe it will make a return later.

    So are the maps that are not going to start with 2.0 going to be back later or are they gone for good?

    how come they cant decompile it... then split up the map into different sections and have people rebuild the source? it could be alot of work but the work could be divided up to speed thing up. if people were willing enoughf to rebuild it, it could be done
    and i love this program <a href='http://www.planethalflife.com/botman/bsp_tool.shtml' target='_blank'>BSP_Tool</a>
    look at what it can make

    Well, get to work. If you could get ns_nancy to work with 2.0 you'd be a hero to the entire NS community <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
