Greetings, first of all, congrats to all involved in getting this out for us to use. :)  Now I assume that to have all of the effects here I would download the Zpack yes? if so then the link gives me a "400 bad request" error. However I have seen in parts of this forum that a complete build will be available at the end of the month? If so then should I just wait for that to be finished? Or is there another link that the Zpack can be downloaded from?

Congratulations...you all exceeded my monthly bandwidth limit of 5000 GB. :p

Unfortunately, I can't really upload the VPs to the dev site via the script, textures, hieffects, and zpack are above the upload limit and they're all self-extracting RARs to maximize compression. I can recompress them as .zip or somesuch, but I'd rather not because RAR is better at compressing 'em.

So, Inqui, PM me? :)

5000000 MB : 110 MB (zPack) = 45454 Downloads :eek2:

Even more as the zPack is the full package, and many people probably downloaded the other parts.


Awesome.


Edit: Big files like this should be (at least in addition) hosted via P2P. If someone were to set up a Tracker, I'd give my 24 kb/s UL as seeder for a while. ;)

Are all the latest official media VP's uploaded to the SCP website as of yet or is it still the old ones?

Erm...5000 MB, sorry. (5 GB) So, more like around 50. 45,454 downloads would be incredible, that's 22 times the number of members on the board. :p

I can't give you the exact statistics because my account is locked. Although, they would be happy to reopen my account if I give them a valid credit card number. :p

No, the latest ones are not on the official indiegames site. The script there is geared to prevent people from uploading viruses or taking up huge amounts of server space, meaning the mediaVPs (large executables) aren't working well with the script.

Ok.
Sorry, I diddnt mean to sound pushy. I just wanted ask first before I spend time downloading something that could be hte wrong thing. I could help host them on Game Warden but I am afraid of bandwidth problems too. I might be able to host some of the smaller files. Just let me know if you dont have a solution pretty soon. Thanks again guys.

Sorry to repeat this, but is there another working link for the mv_zpack?

  • My thoughts go where no one knows to tread.
Allow me to second that. I get a 0kb .exe that, well, doesn't do a thing. At least nothing good that I can see. Same with all the smaller parts.
I can't go home again until I find a stone a rose a door.
Choo choo, and that is the truth.

ok, do you have a copy of vpmage? You can alter the tables your self and make a new zpack. Then can you ICQ it to me?
