Great find, but just to confirm for a non computer savvy guy, there isn't a way to consolidate and download those files right? Thanks!
Yeah would love it if one of the super-computer-literates among us could set and FTP client up to grab all this stuff, then make it available to the members here. Any takers? :)
What do you invision? I can set something up to grab everything and do something with it. What is the "something" in that last sentence? Post it to the forum by category? Combine it all into one 14GB file to download? Or????
Only problem would be the remote possibility of copyrite issues. wouldn't like the ar-15.co domain name caught up in that. ftp.ar-15.co etc etc
I'm contacting their webmaster to see about being an official mirror and distributor of the content, and at worst see about copyright issues. They offer it for download to your PC at will, so I imagine making another distribution source that takes some load off of their servers would be beneficial to both ends. I'll see what they say.
Ok... Contact has been made. So we will see what they say.
In the meanwhile... how do you all want to see the information presented or made available here if we get the blessing?
I think one downloadable file would be bestest. Can't speak for everyone, but I like to have my own copies, and there's so much there it'll take forever to grab it all. One downloadable file we could all grab it to our hard drives, as if TSHTF we'll lost power and "internets" anyhow.Quote:

Great find! I'd definitely be interested in this. Even in a power out situation, you could power up off of batteries recharged via wind/solar/water.
The use of "bestest" instead of "best" was deliberate. ;) But happy to help with the other stuff too. :)Quote:

Maybe a system of tabbed pages or drop down boxes?Quote:

The bandwidth to host and transfer 41Gbs to all of these members is going to be insane. The only way I can think of doing it without paying an ungodly amount to a hosting service would be to upload to a torrent site and let the members seed the file as they have it downloaded.
If no one can set up a single-zipped-up file for downloading, could you burn it to DVDs or something and mail it for a nominal fee? I'd be willing to pay to have it mailed to me...Quote:

I did too, but have not gone through all of them then nor now. But sure looks legit and like a great collection, even if you do have to wade through some GURPS. :)
Yes I can do the dvd thing but that's alot of dvds. It'd be easier to sell flash drives and.you'd get a 64g flash drive out of it. Or meet up and bring your laptop.
Next time im at jims he will be getting. A copy and a few.members in denver. It should spread quickly from there
That'll work! :) Didn't realize somehow it's 41+GB!Quote:

Jerry can borrow my copy. Ill get ahold of him tonight.
If someone wants to give it to me I'll seed the torrent until a few other people get it downloaded.
I've browsed some to make sure they're not flawed, if even 10% is useless to you it's still a good find. I have yet to find GURPSQuote:

Did anyone ever put that 40gb archive up anywhere? The above link is dead....
Also, I just got done making a complete offline copy of the pssurvival resources (about 23gb), complete with locally-pointing web pages, so if anyone wants a copy (or just wants to know the easies way to grab the wholoe thing directly) just let me know...
I've got a pretty high upstream available (20M). I can setup the torrent and seed for a few weeks until everyone has it, but I need someone to give me the file. Does Jim have it? I'll go get it from him if he does.
ETA: nevermind. I'll just get it all from the site, consolidate into one file and create the torrent. Anyone have a suggestion for a torrent site to use, or should I just pick one?
Both my flash drives are on loan. I can't do torrents.Quote:
