MBnetin Apaja on avoinna vain MikroBitin tilaajille. :-(

I am looking for a person with access to MBnetin Apaja, the download archive of the finnish MikroBitin magazine(?). Your task will be downloading a couple of Quake files. I have not checked for unique files in that list but at least se.zip is “wanted”. http://www.mbnet.fi/apaja/alueet/tiedostot.asp?ParentID=&faid=309&Sort=Name&Order=ASC&All=1

    I downloaded only this “wanted” map as I’m a bit busy. I’ll probably download all later.

    Any other “hot” map wanted?

    Awesome! Any chance to download with the timestamp intact? Maybe they do not even “protect” the files itself but only the URLs to it (ie, can you wget without any authentication with manually created links directly to the files)?

    I checked the whole list and oh dear, there are almost 200 files that seem interesting. http://www.quaddicted.com/temp/mbnet_wanted.txt

    Some of those might be mods and available elsewhere, I simply checked which of the files I have on my harddisk.

    I can’t wget them. It’s an ad-hoc download URL generated each time I click on the zip file. Can’t bulk download them, just tried. I’ll download them by hand, and I’ll look for a Windows utility to change the timestamp. It’s intact inside the archive.

    Nah, leave the timestamp as it is then. Then it is clear that it is not the original one.

    Thank you so SO much for doing this!

    No worries. I’ll let you know when it’s done.

    Due to the aggressive agenda of a certain modding team I am more careful about what I add to the site nowadays.

    What, Arcanum falls under your mod category now? You’re truly the McCarthy of Quake, or something. :/

    I have no idea what that is supposed to mean.

    I disagree with negke et al., but at the very least, if the Arcanum demo is included, the full Arcanum should be too.

    A lot of the maps on your list are likely just renamed/repacked versions of familiar ones.
    (offsprng = offspring; prodigys = prodigy_se; opus = ins2; qtww = tww; etc…). But I know Spirit won’t be satisfied until he’s got the checksums to prove it ;)

    se.zip is on all the cdrom.com mirrors; not sure why you’re missing it (though the one from mbnet is dated a bit earlier, and the bsp’s entity list has some changes).

    I’ve got fane.zip if you want it, but you’ve already got fane11. A bunch of the others can be found on those old legally questionable CD collections (esp. “Quake ‘em”), but not in their original zip.
