It can't hit gold until 3.00, which will be a while at the current patch rate. Version 2.84 would still be Dominions II.

Yup.

Oh and as for the current delay I think it might have something to do with scandinavian midsummer traditions...midsummer is celebrated in Finland (ok we're not scandis) and I remember swedes had their own "midsommaren" funs.

I celebrate all day in the whole summer period on the beach.

What's a "skybox" and why are they having so much trouble with it?

[Johan K]

The skybox is a 3d cube with a sky wallpaper on it. It makes it look like you can see far into the distance instead of that boring fog/darkness that makes it look like you are inside a steamy sauna.

And it's working fine now.

Sounds nice, do we have a screenshot of it?

[Johan K]

Dominions 2 has a skybox too, so it's nothing new.

[Nerfix]

It's the sky in battles, right?

Can you picture a Polypal Mother doing a death wail? Me neither.

Last description made. Wohoo!

Wohoo indeed!

Have another beer, on me.
