• Since we're having an issue with spam and very few people use this website, I've closed Game-Warden to new user registrations. Any FS2, BtRL, SoL, etc questions can be directed to HLP instead.

For all of you who need the Freespace 2 ISOs....

ALL HAIL!

(10 minutes away from completing the download. I opened up Nero, found out my trial is expired. Anyone know of another free burner?)
 
Is it possible for you to just add the ISOs one at a time? I really don't want to have to download for over 24 hours for two extra CDs. :nervous: All I need is the second ISO...
 
What is your connection? My download clocked at 50 minuites, less than an hour. This was using a portion of my dual channel cable box. That connection is not state-of-the-art, yet it was 50 minuites. Perhaps I was one of three downloading or something. Someone could email the CD 2 to you in parts or something...

Well, that's almost more trouble.

My connection currently is 128 KB (16 KB/sec) for download and 256 KB (32 KB/sec) for upload. If I had that the other way, I could do this over night. I'm looking into getting it up to 256 KB both ways. I've been trying to get it switched at the very least to 256 KB / 128 KB instead of 128 / 256.

Oh, well...
 
Since this almost fu**** me over, I am discontinuing it for a while (couple of months.) Whoever posted the direct link to the file in the "something awful" forums, PLEASE DO NOT DO THAT AGAIN. I posted the ISO files hoping people that would actually need them would get them, not just users mindlessly downloading warez that they will probably never use.
 
Well, at this point I am not offering the ISO downloads anymore. Check back here often because that could all change If I decide to upgrade my hosting account.
 
*sigh* So close... I just got my connection fixed. It was wiring outside bugging things up. Well, this stinks...

Suggestion for next time: Try putting on a password on the FTP that is displayed only on this forum. It might last just a bit longer. ...and maybe changing the password every week might help too.

Oh well...
 
Nah. Someone would post the link and the password on another forum. He's got to start the wait-in-line rule again. That'll do it.
 
Restrict it to a registered user with at least 1 post. And if they do not follow those 2, make it say "You are not authorized to download this file". Do not let them know to post and register.
 
Or to be truly mean, they have to wait in line, and after they wai and it's their turn, they have to also be registerred and have atleast one post. ;)

Sorta defeats my idea, doesn't it? Lol to get in line you have to post, and to post you have to register.
 
after what happened before I think it is fair, everything was fine then all of a sudden (just as I finsh uploading FSNA v0.11) the server goes down; not a good way to start a release.
