Something have to be done

Post #1by danielj » 17.11.2006, 01:35

It is not possible to ignore the absence of important sites like jim??s homepage or nasa??s Federman site.ONLY in Jens??site,we could found a 1k Prometheus texture and Alan Federman had exclusive textures and models.Something have to do something.It is not that simple:the sires are gone and THAT IS...no,someone HAVE to replace the missing addons,doing new ones or finding in your archives.
What about Phil Stooke?Why he stopped making new models of minor bodies?I didn??t hear any news for a very long time...

Daniel. I know it's frustrating not to be able to find things, but that's the way things go. It's why we have archives like the motherlode - they're there for people to store their files so they don't get lost. But sometimes files don't get sent there, and they disappear when the site goes down. And sometimes, people have other priorities in life that are more important than making textures or models. That's life. Deal with it.

But please, for the love of god, stop complaining to us about this. We can't do anything about it. And we're really getting sick and tired of hearing this whenever you can't find something. You are the only person who does this - if everyone else can live without these files then why can't you?! :evil:

I??m only a final user.I don??t know how to make textures;but 1k Prometheus??textures from Jens had been available for years.Do anyone can share with me?Why THIS texture was not included in Celestia distribution,but Epimetheus??texture was?They are from the same source...

Daniel,

could you tell me again what your problem with Steve Albers site is?

It works as always for me:

http://laps.fsl.noaa.gov/albers/sos/sos.html

Also, how often do I have to give you Jens Meyer's
texture URL, before you do not loose it again ;-) ?

Here is prometheus once more:

Thanks for the try,but the server was not found.I will try again later...
Anyway,I was said:Never mind.I will try to calm down...
I am beggining to think that maybe because I??m in Brazil,I could have problems in acessing some NASA sites because of the hackers here.What do you think?
