Title: Derelict, latest version - can someone please put up a .torrent?
Post by: Objekt on November 22, 2007, 09:21:03 pm
Given my recent problems with the Derelict mod, I decided a reinstall is in order.  However, first I need to download the latest version, to fix any problems that may have been present in my original download.

Unfortunately, the only websites offering Derelict SCP files for download are unworkable.  One wants me to sign up for an account, which is a hassle, and the other (FileFront) seems to not like my browser - it just won't work.

Can someone please pack all the Derelict SCP files into one archive and put up a .torrent somewhere?  I'll be glad to share the torrent once I've downloaded it, so that others may also download it more easily.

Well, if you're up to it, you could download it from Hades Combine (http://www.hades-combine.com/). Just navigate to Downloads->Campaigns->"Derelict + VPs". Downloading from Hades Combine can be slow but at least the new version is there.

Put all of these (http://fringespace.org/downloads/scp/derelict/) in your \FreeSpace2\Derelict folder.

Thanks!  I guess I didn't look hard enough the first time.

If anyone's interested, I can make them available via Azureus.

Concerning torrents, is there any kind of comprehensive collection of .torrent files for all known SCP campaigns, mods, and conversions?  If not, perhaps there should be.  I am a huge fan of distributing files via bittorrent protocol, as it doesn't require either registering or paying to download from a website.  It also uses one's outgoing bandwidth, which normally goes mostly unused.  My experience downloading the latest Babylon Project compilation via Azureus suggests that there are enough FS2 SCP enthusiasts out there with a broadband connection to make this practical.

OK, I plan on using www.gameupdates.org... I'm waiting for 3.6.10 Soon as that's out, look out.  I'll put up all-in-one packages, and also individual ones.  I already have a BtRL (updates included) package there, even though it's 3.6.9

In other words, hurry up 3.6.10  (http://forums.devhardware.com/images/smilies/honorhim.gif) to taylor  XD  And whoever else is helping him.
