Title: I have a torrent, being seeded...
Post by: Outpour on December 26, 2004, 01:27:52 am

It is being seeded by several people at the moment. I didn\'t want to release it in case the admins had a problem with it.

It is the latest release off the main site. This will help allieviate bandwidth issues, as well as allow more people access to the game (which I  am enjoying very much).

So if an admin could pm please, and let me know if i can post the torrent or not.

I was actually going to do it, but I lost the program to make torrents >_<  I have been gone all day, so I could have done massive uploading, oh well :/

Do you have official permission from Talad to do this? If not, I suggest you stop.

Edit: The reason is because of the Planeshift Art liscense. The artwork for the game is not open-source, so you need permission from the developers to distribute any software that contains PS artwork. Torrenting the CVS code alone, with no artwork, is fine.

what happens if they remove the artwork and distribute the binaries with the updater?

Nice torrent, somewhere where it downloads at near max bandwidth instead of 15.4k for some reason.

THANK YOU

I\'m sorry, but you\'d have to be an idiot to release something like this without a torrent.

It\'s almost as bad as the Red Orchestra mod for UT2004 which is 610 mb, and fileplanet exclusive.

Someone finally made a torrent for that, places like file planet are just a joke.

Yeah, I spent three days trying to download it before I found a torrent on 3dgamers.com.
