Tore Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 (Warning: This news post was a little rushed) I need your help, I'm looking for old and (almost) forgotten C&C1/RA1/TS sites from where I can "save" content. As you may know Gamespy is closing their web hosting services and that means all sites hosted on it will disappear, that means all sites which has this in their URL ".planetcnc.gamespy.com" so if anyone knows about some old sites which has that in their URL you got to be quick as they will disappear when August has ended. If you find an old C&C site with interesting content you want to save post the URL in this topic, it doesn't matter where it is hosted it is just that the site must be inactive credit will be given to the site in question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 so, you want content that was on different sites that are closing down that cnc-comm doesn't have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tore Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 Not exactly sites that are closing down, I just want to "take" some content or ideas from old sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tore Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 errm, neither Gamespy or Planet CnC is closing, just their sub sites like CnC2SW or The Obelisk, but don't worry about CnC2SW. As far as I understood it, Nyerguds will move that site here....one day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irony Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I just took rips of the following sites cnc2sw ra2sw obelisk cncwiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 cnc2sw is on my hard disk, including the news DB stumbled upon this site today: http://redalert.svendsens.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFlibble Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 http://redalert.svendsens.net/ Doesn't seem to contain any new/interesting stuff, but is overall an easy-to-browse database suitable for RA newbies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 oh, about the GS sites, I got an email that they're delaying the closure for another month. Anyway, there's also C&C Flash, but I'm not sure it's worth saving. Frank Klepacki's site has the exact same thing with higher quality tracks anyway.

Irony Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I don't have the facilities to automatically rip flash based sites, so I can't do the C&C Flash one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 What's so hard about looking into the code and seeing which swf it links to? Though I guess it won't be so easy to figure out the actual urls for the tracks it loads... Oh, and I've never automatically downloaded a site in my life, mkay? Manual touch ftw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irony Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Well if I had the time I could run through with an audio catcher and play each of the files, but I don't have the time to do that at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyerguds Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 lol, I'd just look at the URLs in my Opera cache, and then download the files directly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
