Winkyboys Vehicle Index down?

[Baryonyx]

Some time ago I wanted to look for new vehicles so I went to Winkyboys site only to find that the good old Vehicle index is down.

Does anyone know why this is the case and if there is a replacement?


Thank you in advance

The page is down permanently, It sucks I know, I wanted to get some vehicles from there, I don't know any other sites with those vehicles, First Levels 4 you went down, now Winkyboy's what's next, Game front, Mod DB?

[unrealloco]

the site is archived here http://web.archive.org/web/200804010.../files/ut2004/
you can use this to find out the name of the zip files so you can search for them on google
i know i downloaded a bunch of vehicles from there but dont know if i still have them

[Baryonyx]

Hmm thanks unrealloco. At least that's a start. Though it's sad that the pictures are down...

I wish I had some of the vehicles that WEREN'T available to download there. :P

[Blade_hunter]

Somebody can try to put them at gamefront or moddb

It would be cool if someone could take a screenshot of each vehicle and post it on a site, or maybe use imageshack (i think this site is long term image sharing)
and put it in these forums,

I can say this, I've been to that site a lot over the year, before it went down,
and I have about every vehicle on that site, but no screenshots of each vehicle,

If your looking for a certain vehicle, I could email it to you, or upload it to like megauploads.com
, I do know that a lot of UT2004 maps and file sites are going down year by year,
and most of the content is on gamefront.com
even skincity's archive is on there, you can google the zip file name if you know the name of it to find the file your looking for,
just like unrealoco said,

as far as vehicles,
if you can't find one,
give me a shout, maybe i could help,
i do check my messages frequently these days.

some of the vehicles that winkyboy had on his site were in alpha state, so there are a few that don't have a skin, or never got finished,
but most are pretty cool,
also check out this map, it has quite a few vehicles in the map,
ONS-Torlan RIK312
that map is 100mb,
anyone interested?
look at this youtube video of the map with vehicles

Thanks man, nice one

[Winkyboy]

Whoa, hi everyone! I'm still around! (Thanks unrealloco for pinging me) I've still got all the vehicles, but didn't realize I'd jacked the index when I switched from Windows to Linux. :P Lemme see what I can do.

[Baryonyx]

Woo, da man himself! Nice! Thanks for having a look at it!

[Blade_hunter]

Very cool yeah

[Winkyboy]

Yep. I'm moving the site back to a Windows box just so I can keep the vehicle index going. I'm not really using winkyboy.com for much lately anyway!

[Private Tux]

I'm sure you have possibly to do this for your site, but keep us updating your lost/fixed vehicle indexes!

[Winkyboy]

Just an update. Still working on it; I've got the hosting account created, but I guess the DNS needs to be changed to point to it; that'll take 1-48 hrs. meh.

[Winkyboy]

When I'm at work and try to hit winkyboy.com, I get what I expect; the "coming soon" page for a new website. At home, I'm still being routed to my blogspot blog. This implies that the DNS hasn't finished updating, I'd say. I can't get in via FTP yet, either, because it's going to the old IP. (What does anyone else see?)

[unrealloco]

http://www.winkyboy.com/files/ut2004/ shows the blog still
http://www.winkyboy.com/ shows the blog still

you might want to check with your host

[unrealloco]

its weird if i take off the www. i see the "coming soon" page
on your redirect set it for both www and without

[Blade_hunter]

Samething, I'd suggest to use moddb, gamefront and atomic gamer these places are pretty safe to store stuff

[unrealloco]

hes using his own site

[Winkyboy]

SIGH. Sorry for the long @&#% wait, but I finally figured out what was preventing me from uploading. (Eh, in the meantime I was also forgetting to keep trying. Sorry for that, too.) The files are uploading as I type this! (I've made the main site the index -- www.winkyboy.com)

[unrealloco]

thanx winkyboy

[Baryonyx]

W00T! Thank you so much!

[Parkis G]

ya, i was on there last night, the site is awesome,
thank Winky for great site for ut2004 vehicles

[Blade_hunter]

Yeah thanks for restoring your site, there is so much fun vehicles in there

[Private Tux]

Congrats dude for backup-ing some custom UT2004 vehicles.
Judging from your site, saw some ASP codes on your other main site "www.dorkforce.com" six months later, when you moved to the main site.
