Temporary User to User File Transfers

Cyclone Boom

With the STEX back online following the October 2018 site issues, this thread has now been closed.

Therefore the temporary waiving of the file sharing rule no longer applies.

As y'all have prolly noticed we've had to take the STEX (and the Gallery) offline in an effort to keep the forums going. Details can be found in the ST Bugs thread and the current Announcement.

Until we can get this resolved I'm allowing for peeps to temporarily request files in this thread and for other peeps to host said files via some off site method such as Dropbox, WeTransfer.com, or other hosting site. Once the site regains full functionality this thread will then be hidden and archived as we don't normally condone the sharing of files this way.

Please keep requests to a minimum and have patience if no one is able to supply the file(s) you need.

Oh no! I bought this game 15 minues ago, and this thread was created an hour ago. Just my luck!

I was attempting to follow the guide below...

I could not download the files from Part 1 Section B or Part 2. At first I was able to see the names in text, but now the text seems to have been replaced with a frame of the Simtropolis header. Can anyone show me how to access these files directly?

To be slightly more specific, Im looking to find

- Increased Detail Mod

- Stupid News Ticker Mod

- NAM

Thank for any help in advance.

The NAM is too big, more than 50 MB. Not handy enough to present it in another way.

cheers.

Many files may also be available on the SC4D LEX, the NAM is also available here.

I understand there is some disappointment with the STEX being offline, but we need to keep that in perspective. This is a temporary problem and will undoubtedly be resolved in time, so a measure of patience is also required.

Head over to my Lot and Mod Shack to keep abreast of my latest developments.

Do you like custom textures, but don't like all the work involved creating them?, take a look at the Texture Automation options here. Change the look and feel of your transit networks, with the minimum of effort, for example customised versions of my Sidewalk NAM (SWN) and Terrain Grass NAM (TGN) mods, and much more besides.

New to the NAM? Check out my tutorials on YouTube. Latest upload: How to: RHW - MHO Roundabout Interchanges. (Nov 25).

p.s. - I'm MGB over on SC4D and a member of the NAM team.

BTW, If there's a technical discussion of what's happening to the server (with a lot more info than has been released on the bug thread), please let me in. There's a chance I'll have some ideas, especially with databases (e.g. they need to be "vacuumed" from time to time).

    We've brought the STEX back online for members only as our next test. If some peeps want to grab the files above that are needed and post temporary off site linkys to them here that'd be great and it'll help test if the STEX is working.

    This test might also overload the site as there is some underlying bug which we have not yet identified. Both @Cyclone Boom and I are here to keep an eye on the performance. Should ST get overloaded and go down you will first start seeing long page load times and eventually 522/524 errors from Cloudflare. At that point CB will work his magic and then you'll start seeing a 403 Forbidden error. (This means all access is blocked so the site can re-recover.) And then in about 10-15 minutes we'll bring it back without the STEX again should this bad stuff happen causing the aforementioned site crash.
