Protect nwn content idea please comment.
« on: September 19, 2012, 01:46:25 pm »


               I wasn on the vault and seems some links I downloaded not to long ago do not work now.

I have a small idea.

Suppose a forum was made at a free place so as not to cost .This forum would only be used to post your content and link to where its saved such as Drop box etc....

I think this would be good because I know we have downloaded tons to your own PC  but new people will eventually loose access to this in my opinion.

suggestions please

               Use Moddb where NWN has its own page.

Upload files quickly as downloads:

http://www.moddb.com...ights/downloads 

Or upload them and create your own page for the mod:

http://www.moddb.com...ter-nights/mods 

There's also the Neverwinter Nexus but that's already been linked too.

Edit:

Posted this comment in the other thread also.

               My only real issue of dropboxes and private site hosting etc, is the same issue you are reporting about... dead links.  Folks get interested, attempt to grab traffic to their site, see very few visitors, get bored with the game, and suddenly they delete/close their sites.

Using the Nexus as a 2ndary sounds like the best choice to me as it allows everything allowed by the vault, auto-generates forums for the specific files etc, and is a very well respected site that is actually moderated by folks that pay attention.  This site, is dying more each month.
