Need a host for Harmony !

[t.v.]

My game Harmony cannot be downloaded now :-(

Untill recently it was available on http://wadhost.fathax.com/files/harmony.zip
But now it just gives a 404.

Lately Harmony is being visited/ downloaded more than usual, so maybe this is only a temporary problem... Still I would like another host, if only as a backup.

Can anyone help me out or point me in he right direction?


To avoid the obvious:
Harmony cannot be hosted on the idGames Archives because it contains an exe file. It need the exe to be a standalone game. It needs to be a standalone game because it reaches a far bigger audience this way.

The download file is 42 MB btw.

I've still got it hosted on my Phenomer website. :)

Is that a problem? Deus Vult II: The First Edition contains exe files too.

@ memfis: Well back in 2009 is was rejected for that reason...

@ Jimmy: I don't want to bother anyone with the extra traffic. So I need a big site :-).


I just realised Harmony is still available on drdteam so there is no hurry.

It would be nice to have a stable backup just in case.

You should email Ty about that exe thing. He'd probably accept to make an exception for Harmony.


Alternatively, you could upload on idgames a "Harmony - Lite Version" with only the IWAD, while still having the full version on DRD Team.

This. As I recall DV-II has an executable in it but it is still hosted on /idgames.

EDIT: Only just now realized Memfis already stated this -_-

I just emailed Ty.

we wait...

Looking forward to rate your Iwad on idgames. I play it often!

WadHost is being given a makeover, and unfortunately nuking the old archive appears to be part of that process.

Apparently, it wasn't the wadhost admin's decision. It's going back, though. Just without the old archive.
