Tell us what's wrong with this place. But first please check that your Windows disc isn't corrupt and your modem isn't on fire.

Download link for ModUpdater wrong?

Post by Etarnalazure » January 26th, 2019, 3:40 pm

Heyo,

I have no idea of this is just me being thicker than an apple pie made with cement instead of flour, however
I simply cannot get to the download portion of ModUpdater.

It goes to this page no matter what I try:
community/file/view/NraasModUpdater11402.zip/592979046/NraasModUpdater11402.zip

I've tried playing around with the url, thinking anything after the first ".zip" had been appended in error
however none of my attempts have born fruit.

Is the download down? Or am I simply a thickie?

I use Chrome and I have 2 plugins, uBlock Origin and HTTPS everywhere.

Added this site to my exceptions, still no deal. Details link is likewise.
Previous versions give me the same results.

The Mod Updater is not functional if you had it and thus it is not currently available for download. We moved to this site just a few months ago and the Updater was specifically programmed for the unique Wikispaces environment where we used to be, but that no longer exists as Wikispaces is shutting down permanently. There will be a new version in time that works with this site, which is why the pages are still there.

Sorry for the waste of time, I thought we had enough bold type disclaimers on the Updater pages explaining why it's not available. Will have to take another look at that.

Edit: Okay, I see why that might still be misleading. Chain_Reaction - I've made some changes to it for clarity, but this is one of those pages I am reluctant to change the structure of because of how it is put together. Can we just have the entire page replaced with one that essentially says "Out of Order, Please Check Back Later" or something like that?

Ah, indeed.

"THE MOD UPDATER HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED FOLLOWING OUR MOVE FROM WIKISPACES. IT WILL BE REVISITED IN THE FUTURE. "

Seems I was being a thickie after all :P

I simply gave it a quick look over and saw the "Latest Stable Release" part and figured it was up and running.

I did think it was rather fast for you guys to have fixed it over, figured you might simply have set up your own structure to mimic Wikispace's structure.

I even looked through the forums to see if I could find any info on anyone else having my issue, turns out I was looking at the wrong place :P

Etarnalazure - That's okay. But while you're here, I have to admit that you have made me hungry for apple pie. I think we should compare recipes though, yours sounds filling but I think there might be some downsides to using a cement-based crust. :D

Oh yeah. I go the recipe from the mob, it must help people sleep really well! After all, they told me they fed it to everyone that went to sleep with the fishes!


Also, I got this error when I tried to reply and it wanted me to log in:General ErrorTried to redirect to potentially insecure url.Please notify the board administrator or webmaster.

I was pretty sure I had a clear message on the page but perhaps in the shuffle it got reverted. Replacing the page with a message is doable without deleting it. It's not priority but I will get to it.
