Old Threads

[GillsMan 2]

I'm returning to SC4 and Simtropolis after a bit of a hiatus.  I've gone through my bookmarks and noticed that a lot of links to useful tutorials (to do with BATting) are dead.  E.g. the "Creating a Pyramid/Obelisk Tutorial", "Making a Functional Landmark Lot", "Darkmatter GMax Tutorial", "Spline Modelling Tutorial", and "Modding: Basic & Advance [sic] Tutorial" are all missing, and Google doesn't bring up any results either.

So what happened to these excellent guides?  Are they gone forever?  Were they lost in some forum upgrade or something?

Edit - Just found SimGoober's "Making a Functional Landmark Lot" tutorial in the Omnibus - but many of the tutorials I mentioned aren't anywhere to be found.

Edit- I see that you have updated your post.

From my understanding, any thread that hasen't been replyed to in 3 years drops of the forum and is no longer visible, however if you know either the link or the keyworks i believe you can find it as they don't necessarily delete themselfs.

He's referring to the old omnibus I think. We're still in process of converting them from the old omnibus to the new one. Though, many of the converters have been busy with things not ST related.

Correct, but it's two years, not three.

Splines are a Snap

Modding: Basic and Advanced Tutorials

I couldn't find the other two (Darkmatters GMAX Tutorial or Creating a pyramid/obelisk) in the Omnibus... neither the new nor the old version. Those may be in the forums somewhere.
