I'm sure he'll add them he just hasn't been arround yet.
Anyways has anyone playtested the arenas from Ciante? They're stunning but as we all know the more complex arenas tend to be more laggy which sometimes becomes so drastic that it breaks gameplay. So what's the situation of these Arenas?

Pretty good, no issues. Though the ancient halls of stone don't look as good as they do in the screenshot I'm afraid. Would be more impressive if you could actually see the dwarven carvings, maybe if they were part of the pillars? Also there is a little bug, when you look through the pillars a white arrow appears. Btw is there a possibility of making the runes show more white and brighter?

Awesome 
Edit: Like the sunset lighting in the autumnal forest, very fitting.

I like Ciante's arenas. Especially broken bridge.

I was already planning a restyle of that Arena, after testing it in duel mode and seeing that you couldn't enjoy almost anything.
This is the updated version:
[url]http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2A27X6SA[/url]
Extract the folder, then open the last updated Zenithale's New_Arenas_plus.h5u as a zip, browse to Maps/CombatArena, delete Hall_of_Stone folder, then drop the extracted folder in the same place.
So you could update to the new version.
The bug with the white arrow (which btw was a window  ) is fixed.
For the runes changes, I think the only way is to work on the texture, I'll look into it when I get the chance.

Looks great, go gigantic dwarves  One thing I don't get, I inserted it in zenithale's mod and even though I can pick the arena normally in duel mode it crashes in a multiplayer map.. Or at least that's what I think causes the game to crash in dwarven subterranean, didn't crash before.
Edit: Hmm crashed even with zenithale's latest update so the problem existed already. I'll make some tests and see what I find.
Edit2: I have also yet to see the bridge arena, it's in orcish grounds right? I have tried several times and only get regular or Keikan no Jigoku. Btw where does that name come from?

Yes, thanks for the info. It was my error in the CombatArenaTypes.xdb.
Corrected version always to the same url HERE.

Thanks for the swift response. No crashes now, if I find anything else I'll let you know but hopefully that's the last of your headaches for now

Tomorrow will be free DC weekend.  I'll try to finish my arena.
--------------------------------
Here we go.
1)Lava Citadel
2)The Mist
Download
But I never managed to make the secod one to appear on adventure map (I don't want first one to do so). I did as it was said in tutorial, but it doesn't appear. Any idea why?

Kudos for the inferno arena, I was expecting someone to make a cool one Though maybe the obstacles are too large? Might have been situational but I got two 2x2 holes. The mist is well...misty. I can't see anything in there Love the rain and the wolves eating the corpse in the background.
Hey Zenithale maybe you could add where each arena appears in its description? For instance I never saw the broken bridge in the map, just from duel mode. Also perhaps some clarification where they are more likely to appear, beach, nowhere near water, perhaps a specific variation of ground? (Like dirt has roots, darkground etc)
Edit: @DC
I hope that when the arena is added to zenithale's mod that it WILL appear in adventure map. Would be an excellent addition to my duel map

I didn't tried it. Maybe you was just unlycky (I don't see error in the file).

That Inferno Arena is wicked oO. Has a very nice flair (the whole demons going to the arena and watching gladiators slaughter each other etc. etc. get the picture?`It's really cool)
The other one looks lovely aswell but I'm scared of the lag. The autumn-something map was pretty laggy (as beautiful as it was ) so I'm kinda afraid what that baby is going to do to you oO.

They are 3x4. Maybe really too large.

Not only wolves. There is also Pao Kai devouring the swordsman and... have you noticed giant skeleton dragon eating cyclop in the top left corner?

The mist is added by the light, not by effects. Though I added some fog effects, but not very much, so it should not be laggy. Moreover the first one is running a bit more slowly than second one on my computer.

The Mist works fine, but Lava Citadel works terribly slow. I feel like I could count the frames, you know.

Certainly not laggy but can't you make it clearer..? I seriously can't see what is happening in there, it's like playing hide and seek.
Thanks a lot Zenithale, your edit explains some things.

For me it's clear enough to see what's happening. But if you really don't see anything, I'll try to make it clearer.
Aaaand new fresh juicy arena.

Holy cow the core is just brilliant, my compliments  About the mist yes I can see the units but it's hard through the fog and also very easy to miss an obstacle. You have to to stare intently all the time to make sure you have not missed anything, it's not silent hill
