ChrisND Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Hi guys, Just wanted to give you a heads up that we are working on updating the Repository to include a Black Sea section. I don't have an ETA at the moment, but we are working on it. Chris 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grunt_GI Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I assume that means there is some content? Just kidding...I figured it would be a couple weeks for those crazy modders/scenario designers to get creative. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnart Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Thanks for the heads up Chris. Is there any re-design planned for the repository like the forum has received? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizou Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Thanks for the heads up Chris. Is there any re-design planned for the repository like the forum has received? That would be welcome indeed! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnzrldr Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Stupid Question Chris - our sexy new forum actually has file attachment capabilities. I show myself (just us betas?) having unlimited upload capacity. Any reason modders/mappers/scenario designers cannot hang their actual .btt / .bts / .brz files right here on the forum, until such time as the repository upgrade occurs? If this is *bad* from a file security or forum overload standpoint, let me know. Note: I also assume it works for PM messages, would make for Dbox/email alternative for point-to-point file sharing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 pnzrldr, zip and rar file extensions are allowed so the simplest course is to zip 'em. I think it would be a good idea to allow all standard CM file extensions to remove the extra step. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieme(ITA) Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Without zipping them, the files are more than twice larger.... I really can't see myself uploading 600mb of stuff in one big send. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnzrldr Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Yeah, that's kind of big... I uploaded a 1mb .pdf as a test before I asked the question, so I know that works. Am sure this forum is not intended to serve as a file share server, but figured for smaller stuff it might be an easy way to trade files until the new repos is fully online. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnart Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 How to attach zip file to post? I see no option in reply box, or am i missing something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnart Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Got it Ian. Thanks. Now I just have to unplug the mod log jam One suggestion I do have for the new repository is to have a section for general CMx2 engine mods that work in all the games. As an example my "Arrow Unit Bases" mod works in all CMx2 games. If we had that I would not have to load the mod into each separate game repository for people to find it easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRMC1879 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Thanks for the heads up Chris. Is there any re-design planned for the repository like the forum has received? Yes I would like to know that - it was stated there would be - getting stuff from there is a tortuous time consuming process and its the single most frustrating thing in the whole battlefront experience. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niall78 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Yes I would like to know that - it was stated there would be - getting stuff from there is a tortuous time consuming process and its the single most frustrating thing in the whole battlefront experience. In my opinion the repository needs urgent work. It is a complete pain for the fan base to use while also doing a great disservice to the modding and campaign/scenario designer community. If it costs extra money to host and run a proper repository stick a dollar on each game to cover it. As it stands the community and Battlefront is lucky to have GreenAsJade's Combat Mission mods warehouse taking the slack for a barely usable repository. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammersix Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Please, god, segregate the campaigns from the scenarios. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim.Reaper Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Just curious, is there another recommended site where the same missions/campaigns are available for download? The design of BF's repository makes it very cumbersome to download files, especially if your trying to download a bunch at the same time, takes many mouse clicks and navigating pages. If I was only downloading a single file, not a big deal, but when try to do a lot, way too time consuming for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnart Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 a barely usable repository. I agree it can be improved, but to say it is barely usable is a bit harsh. I have been able to find, and use mods from there with not too much trouble. It works, but could be better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saferight Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 anyone know what the file size limits again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 It says it in the upload screen. 250MB iirc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
