ftp.sunset.se lost + now found

[Baker]

Due to an email from Spirit to the people at 3dgamers, there is now a new mirror of the vanished PlanetQuake idgames2 archive that was, for the most part, solely remaining at suneset.se

ftp://archives.3dgamers.com/pub/idgames2/planetquake/

This is the huge archive of Quake files that once was at PlanetQuake that includes gigabytes of single player and deathmatch maps, mods, QuakeC and who knows what else.

I always used to go to ftp.cdrom.com for my quake bot/mod downloads... Too bad it went down over 4+ years ago.

The filedates are bad
And the planetquake folder isn't there of course.

[scar3crow]

well quake.errorabove is there mostly for stuff after PQ decided to dump Quake.

3dgamers.com archive has bad timestamps

The timestamps for the 3dgamers.com site that Baker posted are all wrong as well.

Spirit: Who did you contact from 3dgamers? I can write a program to set the 3dgamers archive to the right file dates. 3dgamers just needs to tell me what OS and compilers and/or interpretters they have installed.

Didn't you mention before that your archive has the wrong timestamps as well Spirit? You could run the same program.

I just posted via http://www.3dgamers.com/feedback/
Frans P. de Vries is the maintainer of Doom and Quake archives.

Yes, all the filedates in my archive are bad too :<
Would love your prog (WinXP compatible if possible)!

Okay, I'll send 3dgamers feedback when I'm done testing.

I couldn't find a free software tool to do it in Linux and win32.

I made a patch against wget 1.10.2 to add support for setting the timestamp locally. I know wget builds under cygwin and mingw but I haven't done it in a while. It compiles and runs fine in Linux though.

wget? I have that for Windows

So do I

It rocks, doesn't it?

That's why I patched wget instead of writing my own program. Everyone uses wget. They have a development branch for 2.0. I'll try patching against the svn branch and see if they like it.

Spirit: It's done. Can I email it to you? It took me 3x as long to get it compiling fine in Windows (mainly the compiling and downloading the dependencies) as it did to write the code.

When you start it up (wget --version), it should display "Wget 1.10.2 + patch for remote timestamping".

kbd: whyat would be really nce is you creating an option for it, then submiting the patch

[Spirit]

kdbrate: Wow, yeah. Please mail me!

Umm of course. I wouldn't patch it by default to do remote timestamping. I only want one binary.

Here's the patch: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.com...t.patches/1664
