Enjoy mod hosting site while it lasts

Carotio · 01-01-15, 03:57 PM

I have decided NOT to extend my subscription of my webhost for SHMF, where some mods are hosted due to lack of support.
The subscription ends January 25th.

The site had its own proper domain name (Silent Hunter Mods Forum), but that will soon be history. I set up hosting for mods (for SH3, SH4 and SH5) from other modders, but only a few came and got their mods up there. And only few members wanted to donate for the hosting costs, which rose because of the hosting of lots of big size radio mods. It hasn't been appreciated, so why continue? That's why, I'll pull the plug.

In the future, I may move the forum to another host, where I keep my main site (not mod related), just to secure my own mods.
But the other mods will need to find other places to be hosted. And if they ain't available elsewhere, it's not my problem. I couldn't care less anymore.

So if you want the mods, it's your last chance. Go visit:
http://www.silenthuntermods.com/forum/index.php

However, some mods are for SHMF members only, not regular members/guest. The forum has been attacked by spammers, so I have disabled the normal registration process. Sorry!
So only those of you who have allready registred, can get access now. Otherwise, you have to either settle for those mods available to guests or to wait for my approval for full access. Be PATIENT!

Carotio, Thank you for a very good mod hosting site too.
Tkanks very much for your effort

Very good site Carotio.
When I started modding SHIII a while ago, your site was the first that I came across. Very good mods (especially that seafloor you made).

Anyway thanks for your time and effort Carotio.

So sorry that you are closing down. Unfortunately two months ago I had to say good by to OPERATION SPINN...... AS In your case it was also due to lack of use and recognition.

I commend you for keeping it alive this long

Thank you for your kind words.

A little comfort can be revealed now.

I have managed to get the forum up and running on a subdomain on a server of an other host; that is SHMF will get a new url adress:

http://shmf.larsbundgaard.dk/

However, the mods won't get space on that server, so there is the same deadline as before: get the mods before January 25th, if any of the mods are some which you want.

I wished to save the forum, just because there were some valuable posts there. But the mods will have to be uploaded elsewhere: mediafire or similar places. And I won't be doing that work. The modders can reupload them themselves, if they want. I will only manage my own (old) mods now. I had some WIP mods of both SH3, SH4 and SH5, which I don't know will ever see the daylight, since I quit modding years ago, and I really can't remember everything about it, since I lost interest in SH modding due to a lot of reasons... But if they appear, they will appear there.

Over and out...
