alternate mirror???
« on: March 28, 2005, 12:59:52 am »
is the download from
http://www.fragnetics.com/download.php?file=planeshift
a good one???
its only 208 mb (not 210 like the planeshift)
but the download is SOOOO much faster (210 kb a sec, unlike planeshifts\' server where i got 7 kb a sec)

so let me know if that download is any good

thanks

Is it because you can\'t read, or is it because you don\'t want to read?

Download methods

With the increasing demand of PlaneShift downloads and with the client getting bigger due to content addition, there is the need to find a brighter way to deliver to you our files. We are testing a new technology that can solve the problem. The technology is called BitTorrent. Using this FREE software, that contains no spyware and is open source, you will downloads PlaneShift files from other users, and not directly from our main site. It\'s important to notice that only the exact original file published by us is delivered to your machine, thanks to validity checks done by a central BitTorrent program hosted on our servers.

In addition to BitTorrent we also provide a direct download link. Please save our bandwidth and use BitTorrent if you can.

And yes, the fragnetics file works. It\'s just an older version of the game, and you\'ll have to update quite a bit of files.
