March 30th, FileFront will shutdown

[[-z-]]

Not that I care so much but it is a big hit to parts of the gaming community. If you have an account here, make sure you backup your files if you haven't already!

Is there a good reason for doing that?

Just incase game spot goes down too, you know, because of the economy. I allready mirrored it, sans the stuff on fileplanet. Can you go dl the fileplanet stuff?

I've DLed them from fileplanet. Had to dl each one by itself as the 'planet doesn't allow you to automate anything. The prefabs have a nice license: "All I ask is that if you
do use them for a published map, please give me the credit in your text file. That's it !!!!!!"

And a working mirror of the site itself:
https://cat2.optus.nu/MIRRORS/bubbasQ3/

With the gamespy ads etc removed.

These are the sed operations I used to clean up the mirror and fix links after w3mir did it's thing :

Code: Select all

sed -i 's/..\/..\/..\/..\///g'  *.html;
sed -i 's/<P><CENTER><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">/<!--/'  *.html;
sed -i 's/<\/NOSCRIPT><\/CENTER><\/P>/-->/'  *.html;
sed -i 's/<IFRAME//'  *.html;

sed -i 's/http:\/\/dl.fileplanet.com\/dl\/dl.asp?\/bubba\//..\/bubbasQ3maps\//' maps.html;

sed -i 's/http:\/\/wrapper.gamespy.com\///g' *.html;

sed -i 's/http:\/\/dl.fileplanet.com\/dl\/dl.asp?\/bubba\//..\/bubbasQ3prefabs\//g' *fab*.html;
