XDelusion Posted May 2, 2006 I'm trying to download the ZDOOM Wiki page with WinHTTrack but it fails as soon as it starts. Anyone know of a way? I've got no net at home so I need to do this badly. 0 Share this post Link to post
Enjay Posted May 2, 2006 I can't remember who posted this originally (Nash?) but I copied it from either the Zdoom or the GZdoom forum. Step 1) Go to http://www.httrack.com/ and download it. You'd want to download the no-installer version to speed up the process. Step 2) Run WinHTTrack.exe, File -> New Project, press Next. Enter "ZDoom Wiki" as the project name, then look at "Base path". Click the button that says "..." and choose a folder to save the ZDoom wiki to. Click Next. Step 3) Enter this into the web address box: http://www.zdoom.org/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page Step 4) Click "Set Options". Go to the "Scan Rules" tab and you should see a box with a bunch of stuff. Clear that box and put this: -*Special:* -*Talk:* -*User:* -*&action=* -*&printable=* ... and press OK. Then hit Next. Step 5) Hit Next again; don't touch the other options. Sit back and wait! The Wiki will be downloaded to your hard disk and you can bring it home for offline viewing. 0 Share this post Link to post
Neil Posted May 2, 2006 I'd ask the wiki admins for permission to do that, especially if it doesn't wait at least a few seconds between downloading each page. 0 Share this post Link to post
