chip's Collection - ADA (Amiga Demoscene Archive)

[chip]

I don't take a list of what is new (for Janeway and TOSEC)

It's all "mixed" inside the collection, old and new stuff

Instead of deleting / reupload the whole collection everytime; can you not just upload the updated files with each new release chip?

[chip]

I sincerely don't know like do something like that DamienD


For this reason i will continue to re-upload everything each time

[rygar]

chip, use crlmame or romvault for it.

[chip]

Thanks for suggest rygar, but sincerely i prefer a single archive to reupload every time



I mean, i don't like the idea to have an archive + various updates around

So what happens when your collection gets to say 10GB or 20GB archived?

Not only will it take you an absolute age to upload; it also wastes time for people having to download the whole thing yet again.

It's really not hard to track your changes between versions.

I’ve updated ADA for chip and it’s already 66 Petabytes. My my this little collection has grown! It might take around 100 years to upload, sorry.

It seems Chip is unwilling to take advice.

I'm afraid I agree with all above posts Chip, I've stopped downloading it because of this reason, I'll just maybe download it every 6 months!

Again, what a waste of resources!
...anyway you have the freedom to not care about others opinion!

Well maybe in a few months, i will check again, don't want to download 2.5+ GB for just a 150+ new intros / demo's..... Chip, release UPDATES........

Plus, you should at least say what's new with each update chip.

This would really help people who've already gone through your collection; in order to try the additional stuff without too much hassle

...just trying to give you helpful suggestions at the end of the day.

Each single individual can do what he wants to do, even if you have proved that he is wrong. LOL

It's that easy!

i just tried downloading the files from the server. all finished at 132mb each.
is something corrupted, or am i doing something wrong ?

when i try to uncompress the files, i get a corrupted message.

Hi Jason, thanks for trying the collection

No, there aren't problems on the files, they work fine

I see that your posts count is low

When you reach 50 posts you can create an upload account and download the files with your own account

It goes at higher speed than anonymous download
