This thread is to upload your saved games and show them to everyone else. To upload them, go to Rocketsoft or whatever website you use to host your files, and copy / paste us the link here. You must provide us a description of some sort. For example: Players: Assassin Killer Finn, Billbobjoe vs Dan, FredFredrickson Link: Age: WWII-WWII Map: team islands Type: EB DM: no Other: A good beginning, but then when billbobjoe sent his bombers out, Dan killed them with his fighters and Fred attacked us killing out whole base. Luckily I sent a V2 over and we won. EDIT: made easier to understand.

You gotta post the link here silly. When it said "Download successful" you right click on the link and press "copy link location" and then paste it here.

well in your first post you wrote a link there where games could be uploaded and there it was said that u still have to work on the list of all saved files so that everyone has access to them.
You edited first post and deleted the link on which my remark was for... I m not silly, but I dont like the idea everyone shall use his own upload thing. I would be more happy if we have something like on HG ...a folder with uploaded games where u can comment and download.
Maybe its possible?

Well we could, but we would have to waste bandwidth, which costs money if we use too much. This isn't my uploader, it is an uploader that is used by game designers from another forum I go to. I don't own it or anything, it is just fast and doesn't have any ads or whatnot. That is the bonus of using a small-time company to upload your files. how it works: The whole issue here is bandwidth. Bandwidth is the amount of "data transfer" your host allows you to do. Lets say you have a website hosted on bravehost.com. They might allow you 60mb of bandwidth/month for free. Lets say each time someone visits your website and downloads your software, it wastes 2mb of bandwidth. That means only 30 people would be able to visit your website and download your software. Now if your friend also puts his software on your website, it would take up 3mb of bandwidth for every person. Only 20 people will be able to download it. This is similar to forums. Lets say proboards only allows Rotaretilbo to have 1200mb of bandwidth/month. And each topic costs 5mb of bandwidth, but each post costs only 1mb. This makes it more ideal for him to have all the stuff in 1 topic, a post for each, instead of making a topic for each of them. This would let him keep these forums free for him so he isn't sacrificing money for them. Hopefully this helps.
