Anyway, I know the guy who used to run the forum. Idk if he still has any backups or anything, but if you guys like I could ask him.

EDIT: Crazy how many names I still know here, still active in the community.

So.. you're alive as well!

I am! Though not involved in any kind of mapping anymore. I've moved on to other things

that makes me sad, dude....at least ut99 is still alive

Naw I mean, life goes on. Interests change. I'm 3D Artist now so it's not thaaat far off :b

Good new is: we still have a backup.
Bad news is: we have to check how much or what is usable. Naturally we can't just upload the entire backup.

We'll have a look in the next couple of days and then I'll update you guys.

I think I did not archive the files I downloaded anywhere. Has someone else?

I want a son of you lol, nah jokin'. Thats great news!
PD: By usable, what do you mean exactly? (Maybe some of the mappers here could finish for you -with permission obviously- if that stuff could get some worth for ut fans )

By usable I mean that we haven't yet looked at the data, and in what format / way it's accessible. We need to make sure there's nothing else in there, that shouldn't be. Might involve a bit of manual work or some scripting.

I'll let you guys know once something materializes.

Hi my Lord, I've a taste of making jokes first, its a way to break the ice
have u a nice day!

I have the old forum. I ran it a few years ago for a few months in a docker container because the codebase is outdated as fuck and didnt feel like getting hacked and botted all the time. But even fixing minor issues make it not run very smoothly at all.

I'm currently trying to get it up on some private xenforo installation which i unfortunately cant make public as long as it doesnt have a valid license and i really dislike all the open source forum alternatives on the market. We'll see if it even works

Any update @Radon ? Would be really nice to grab the uploaded attachements from there at least, if I recall there were definetly maps/decorations/textures uploaded only there. Also just now @Krull0r asked for CTF-Cryonic which apperantly was uploaded only here? It was his only CTF map and it doesn't seem to be anywhere else.
