Any hacks/nukes/disruptions of any kind will be
Result in this site being taken DOWN.
In other words, NO FREESPACE FOR YOU!
Your Ip address of $(CLIENTIP)
Has been logged
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enjoy

PS I will also post any closures of the FTP site here as well. so if your having problems connecting, come here and find out why. :)
This is my very first FTP site, so please bear with me.
-
Hey cool, that can be very useful :) :yes:
-
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
-
Oh, forgot to mention this.
There are 10 slots on the FTP site, and a max download rate of 200KB/s. So have fun. :)
and please send me feedback about the FTP site. how the connection was, if you had any problems or suggestions, Ect.
this is my 1st FTP site so if I can improve it just let me know. (and don't say get more bandwith, unless you can foot the bill for me)
:p
BTW I got everything working in game, and I AM IN LOVE!! :ha:
-
I'm an idiot, how could I forget the ones who made this possable.
SPECIAL THANKS TO karajorma for helping me test the FTP server and bringing these files to you.
Everyone say thank you karajorma (as well as thank you molish) for bringing this extra FTP site for you to get your goodies at. :)
-
Thank you, Karajorma... :D
-
Excellent! Thanks for letting me experience an awesome game at its full potential. :D
BTW, I plan on sharing the files missing from the HotU version over ICQ as soon as I get the rest of them downloaded, so that'll be another place if both FTP servers are full. I'll only be able to keep it up for a short time, though, as my classes are coming up and all.
-
Ok, this is getting REALLY fricken annoying. The IP has changed 3 times in under 1/2 an hour.
Does anyone know how I can keep my IP lease longer then 10 minuets? (this is the frist time I've ever complained about having a dynamic address).
-
dyndns.org I guess - getting a domain in other words
:welcome:
Thank you for the effort to spread the game.
-
gah I need those files by tonight. gah!! :(
-
Thank you Flaser.
The news dynamic host is being set up with auto IP updating so I won't have to keep changing the IP address.
The new FTP site is OPEN!!! (see information in the 1st post)
If you have any problems please check above for my ICQ # or just post here.
-
my friend loves you... :yes:
-
With all the controversy over FS3, and people wondering about FS2, this is a great thing to do :D
For those who can't get hold of a copy of the discs, this is their only hope of seeing what the fuss was all about !
-
I'm connected to the server, though I'm getting only 6KB/sec at the moment.
Edit: Hmmmmm . . . The speed went up around 24KB/sec.

Yea, like I said my poor old ADSL line is only a 256K upstream (and I've given you guys 200K of it, so I only get 56K for myself and my home network of 5 computers)
I usually see people connected that will get abour 50K a sec, but I'd like to know the K rates of everyone that connected so please post them here. If you guys arn't useing the whole 200K I'd like to have more upstream then my old 56K modem back please. :)
Mabey I'll set it to 150K. I haven't yet b/c no one else has complained about the 1-2 second pause they get when clicking on link or something at my house.
-
I am trying to connect but get a message saying :
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
I am using Smart FTP ( but I don't really know it that well !! ) what could be going wrong?
-
Odd. Mabey thats why I'm listed as OFFLINE on Fractux's thread.
But I've got someone downloading off me right now, and my IP hasen't changed (even though I've got an auto-updater).
I'll speak with Fractux about this, he'll know more then me having hosted his for longer.
untill then just keep trying to connect. Like I said, I got one downloading right now, so whoever they are they were able to connect.
-
I believe I got everything fixed!
Please send feeback if you still have problems.
-
Im still not able to connect again.
he requested item could not be loaded by the proxy.
Proxy server's network connection was refused by the server: freespace:[email protected]. The server may not be accepting connections or may be busy. Try connecting again later.
-
What type of FTP client are you useing?
Are you running through a proxy or firewall?
Do you use a dial-up or broadband (if so, what type/speed)?
-
I'm using a web browser. FTP works fine with it. I think your server has some weird connection issues.
edit: I nabbed a connect and it's going 26kbs. woot.
-
Same thing has happened to me, its not letting up, i've tried using IE and two other FTP clients with no success. I downloaded most of the 32 segments (i have 3 left) until i got this error.
-
agh it's doing the "lets stop halfway and assume it's finished" thing again. :-/
-
The FTP is being pulled down untill I get a new FTP program. Mine sucks bad (ppl having too many problems with it) so I'm pulling it in favor of a new program in hopes that will solve the problem.
Should be back up in about an hour or two
-
Ok, the new FTP is up and running! Thanks again to Karajorma for his help on directing me to a freeware copy of some decent FTP software AND for helping test the server again. You da man, man. :D
The server is on the same site it was, with the same username and password.
Max 10 users with NO BANDWITH LIMITATIONS! (couldn't find the option for it, so you get all my 256K upstream)
Which will destroy my online gamming, but oh well. The price I pay for giveing you guys what you want. ;)
-
heh I can barely connect now.
-
Sadly Cerberus doesn't feature limiting a connection (I had a look at the docs a little while ago. )
If someone knows of a good freeware program that does and you can be bothered to swap just IM me again and I'll help you test things out.
-
My FTP server is being taken offline for updates. Shouldn't be anymore then about an hour or so.
Posted: 2:00 P.m. (central time)
EDIT: New Server is up and running. 10x better then it was! Thanks to Fractux!
-
okay I'm trying to login and I'm getting access denied, and I'm putting in the right user/password combo.
O_o
edit: error seems to be fixed. :)
-
Ok, he stopped. Life is good again. :)
But those of you still only getting 5K a sec, blame my other files sharing program, and me Useing Cute FTP to download the rest of Fractux's File off his FTP server (like the movies!!).
The other file sharing program I'm useing is emule (no, I'm not sharing any freespace 2 stuff). I'm trying to get the nearly IMPOSSABLE to find campaing missions that were converted to multiplayer. The entire campaing missions were converted to multiplayer file called Freespace2Coop.zip, but the only one place that ever had them, the download doesn't work. If someone could help me get these files, I'll provide it on my FTP for everyone else.
