I haven't heard that there are any, but I'm betting Rafuron or whatever the guy's name is will put something new out sooner or later.

[Bob Loblaw]

I'm actually guessing he won't. I read on some page, I think for mines of moria, he said he had plans on making 2 more. And he has, so I think hes done.

[Tcp-Kill]

I think he is making 1 final one and i believe he is making Minas Tirith

[Kaemon]

In fact the original plan was "Moria" + "2 more" (what Bob Loblaw said) but then he liked how so many people enjoyed Moria, and realized he couldn't let Minas Tirith out.

However, he wanted to do the Ze_Paranoid thing (was refered as "The Labyrinth" back then) with lots of powerups, random ways continually changing and such; and since he really wanted to do it allready; and has done 3 LOTR maps in a row, he did Paranoid.
Since then he told me that after the labyrinth and Minas Tirith he won't map ever again.

The bad news where that, even if he was aware of the limitations of Hammer; he found a lot of new ones when doing Paranoid and the map (allready released and on your servers) is easly 10 times more simple and less detailed than the original one, all due to Hammer poor limitations...
In fact, he did have to let out a couple of extra endings, pillars and other decoration all allong the labyrinths, altars for the powerups, many powerups, and more...

The other day he told me that he didn't want to do Minas Tirith, that he is done with mapping (he was quite bored of Hammer, specially after more than 4 releases of Paranoid in a week, and still has bugs and glicths; most of them wich won't show when testing with less than 20 people).
But I really think he will end doing Minas Tirith; however, he is gona need some rest and some time before starting to work on it.
