so anyway, in the past week I uploaded a 150meg file no problem. do you need some help or something? what is the actual problem with hosting because I can think of no reason why it would take this long unless the only person who has a complete version of this mod is situated in antarctica waiting for AOL to setup a broadband line.

Or maybe it just takes a while for mirrors to get back to us with download links and confirmation.

in which case find mirrors that get back to you faster. there are plenty around. if I can manage mirroring massive files why can't you? it's not like it takes a lot of know-how. most hosts provide a link as soon as you've finished uploading.

We're not looking for "instant-share" mirrors, but games/mods hosting websites such as FilePlanet, FilesHack etc... which take time to download then reference the mod in their database before they give us the link. Most of these mirrors don't allow you to upload your files by yourself or you have to contact the guys by mail. We've got a few mirrors ready, still we're waiting for at least a very big one.

Why not set up a torrent in the mean time? Torrents are pure genious. If you did, we would all have the mod by now. Anyways, you do what you see fit. Im looking forward too playing the mod.

Torrents are the best, i mean, i allready have the mod, so i can help seeding as soon as the torrent is online, and i can upload FAST, really Fast.... And when i uploaded it, more people would have it, ETC... so i think everyone should have the mod within the first 2/3 days! Anyways, do whatever suits you... It's just a word of advise..

Such a demanding tone, how about a little please and thank you eh?

Are you talking about LAZER's leak, or the finished product? Anyways, why not use the best alternative out there? Why postpone when you can have it done in no time? I think there is something else behind the delay than just getting answears from unneeded mirrors. Think about it, the mod team must know what bittorrent is, if they havent been to busy with the mod that they forgot all about downloading. No offense guys. They have a better reason i am sure. Or they want this done by mirrors because some seem that to be the proper way. But the alternative is there.

And in a matter of fact, i think you are right in a way... I mean, why wait for ALL the mirrors... Maybe, just maybe they are gonna fix some small things that are still in the mod...(!) Maybe... Or something else... But it's weird... I also release software (I'm a programmer) and I use 1 or 2 mirrors... Not 5 or 6... 2 is more than enough... (and it doesn't matter if it's a mod or software)
