This site hasn't loaded for me the next couple of days, so I'm wondering if McRatt took down the webhost, b/c I'm fairly certain the domain name is still good.

Forceflow, it's my idea that if XW:L has really died, we can just transfer the Community Links on that site's homepage to your links page. Google should still have a cached copy of the XW:L homepage @ http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/s ... egacy.net/

What I really need is Abolisher's section, I finally got YOGEME updated to check for custom XWA backdrops, and now I don't have any customs to test it with...

Hmm, I don't even have ftp access anymore so I think she's gone.

Dunno why - I guess Nob took it down?

I updated the links page and cleaned it up. There were a couple of dead and even one malicious link, all of which have been removed.

EDIT: Ah it's in community links, but I think it should be moved :)

I have Jefe on my MSN/Windows Live account but I haven't seen him sign on in a while. :-/

Edit: I have two files from XW Legacy, the High Resolution fonts for Nvidia Cards by Harrier Brayer, as well as the Death Star Surface pack from Master Qui-Gon. I don't recall there being a lot of files there, maybe around 5? I know the other 2 were Matt's SSD and MXvTED (which has since been updated and can be found at DS' site). I'm pretty sure there was at least one other file.

FF, I'm almost willing to bet that that malicious link you found was an old site that shut down and the malicious site picked up the domain name.

Could be, most likely it was some infected advertisements. I didn't feel like checking it out further ;)

@DS: You're right, should move that one!

Hi guys, I'm still around, sorry for not getting back before, but I've been really busy lately with work and baby.

I've just read Wildstar e-mail, and can host anything we need. But anyone knows what happened? URL is still registered until this summer, July I think, but I could not get the IP it is supposed to resolve. Anyone remembers it? :?

By the way, I've not been using hotmail msn lately, it does not work at my work site and when I get home I usually don't have time to connect anyway.

Still, you can reach me through my gtalk account xvtedicion.

Any progress with X-wing Legacy? I've been looking for custom missions, and have heard that Legacy/Abolisher hosted many of them. Unfortunately those sites seem to no longer exist :/

Well, as far as Abolisher's Ashgard campaign goes, I've been hosting those files, IIRC

I'll set up a download page for those and put a link up here.

Actually that list seems to be pretty much dead (nobody has posted since months). We are still around on the forums though. ;)
