I'm getting a 403 forbidden when I try to download anything.

This is a problem with the site move and is out of the FSPort team's control.  It should be fixed in a few days.

Is it just me or are the majority of threads in the FSPort forums bug reports and help me threads?

Well, people are 11 times more likely to report a negative experience than a positive one, so that's to be expected.

(Seriously, that's not a made-up statistic.  I read about it in college; it was part of my Marketing course.)

I'm betting 404 when trying to download the FS1 port. Any ideas?

Still seems to be down. Granted, it's a long holiday weekend in the U.S.

That's too bad. I just discovered this mod and was keenly interested in trying it out. I see back when 2.3 was released a couple years ago, someone seeded the files on BitTorrent. Is anyone willing to do that for the 3.0.3 files?

For all of those who cant download - just search the forums. This has been discussed AND if you look close at some topics you will be able to find a way to download.

Redirect paths are screwed up a little it seems. It happens quite often when a whole bunch of websites are moved to a new location. So if you want to download a file that is located at http://downloads.hard-light.net/fsport/releases/ just change that to http://fsport.hard-light.net/downloads.hard-light.net/releases/ and it will work. I'm pretty sure this is going to be fixed very soon. But for now this way it THE WAY.
