So far I've managed to grab the front-end but it's seriously hard work trying to gather the other files.
(GB64 v01 Screenshots 83,714 KB)
Only 1 server supplying the pack and i'm currently downloading at 0.7k a sec - no, I'm not on dial-up.
(GB64 v01 Extras 472,075 KB)
Uses the same server as above so I dread to think how long this will take.
(Games)I do have quite a large collection of games already (2000 or so) but entering them by hand seems silly when the database has been set up for the files on nostalgia.pl.
Downloading them 1 at a time is equally as bad though.
(HVSC Sids)
I currently have no access to this page
So a question or 2...
Will anyone be willing to provide a burning service if all costs are covered for the postage/discs?
Will we be seeing a bulk upload to usenet anytime soon?
Thanks,
frak!

AFAIK HVSC it is down because it depends from c64.org (that doesn't work due to a server crash).
Downloading about 15/16.000 files individually by hand is quite impossible. I am also awaiting for d/l tips.

Someone should upload the collection to usenet (alt.binaries.emulation.misc), this way it'll be fairly easy for most people to download the whole thing, and it'll free up nostalgia.pl...

Completely agree with the 'alt.binaries.emulation.misc' thing. It's by far the fastest and easiest way for most people to grab the collection.
Thanks!! grabbing the collection right nowFractalus! wrote:For the the High Voltage Sid Collection (HVSC), you can get it here: http://www.tld-crew.de/siddown.html

I'd be all for the "alt.binaries.emulation.misc thing", but I would have no idea how to go about that. Maybe someone can upload/share it there and post instructions how to get there.
I'm sure it'll pop up on the file sharing networks as well though... sooner or later anyway.

Seems the Nostalgia.pl site is getting one hell of a lot of traffic at the moment!
All we can say is to be patient - don't hammer the FTPs or they'll be down quicker than you can blink!

Re: Screenshot Downloads
Don't really have much choice with the art pack tho.. that's just it, it's a single file. Not even attempting to grab a whole folder full of games - I'll wait for some kind soul to share via the usual meansJonh wrote:Seems the Nostalgia.pl site is getting one hell of a lot of traffic at the moment!

There are also 8 seperate screenshot packs so dial-up users can get them easier. Its still a total of nearly 90mb, but in 10-12mb chunks.

At the moment the nostalgia.pl site is under heavy traffic, so if you get no response, don't worry and try again later. The collection will not be going away!
Hope this helps.
