Title: Is FRP gone?
Post by: WyldFyre on December 26, 2014, 07:09:36 PM
Haven't been there in a while, getting a "can't find server" message.

Has another FF site said goodbye?

Yeah, I get the same issue.

I hope that it comes back, soon  :(

It's been down for about a week now. I had let Prem/Prev know, but he didn't say what his plans were.

Nooooooooooooooo ...  :(

I wish there was a way of backing up (or at least cataloguing) the content hosted on everyone's FF sites. It feels like a big number of cool pieces of work go into the void when a site goes down.

Last time I talked with Prem he was trying to update the look and to make it easier to update. He was having a rough go of it which is probably why it's down right now.

Cyber's been doing a great job with that (mostly tutorials, but he's made yahoo groups to backup unavailable meshes, too).

A link to a ton of FF resources that have been lost over the years is in his signature  ^_^

That's good to hear! :D

The update part, I mean. Not the "rough go of it" part :P

Go to "Files", then to "Custom Content Lists". Check out the "Skin Megalist by Cripp12". He put together a very comprehensive list of FF Content and where they are located. The list is a couple of years old, but it's still a fantastic resource.

Also, check out the "Links" section of the Yahoo Group. While it's far from complete, I think it could be quite helpful.

Good to hear it's just getting streamlined. That one was moved to the top of my bookmarks, I'd hate to see it go. I should really get with the program and make my own page a little more accessible like everyone else has been doing but you know, this wall isn't going to stare at itself and eat Peanut Butter Cups all day.  :rolleyes:
