it's people like you who make me feel even more superior ;)
seriously, sorry if i offended you but please don't give people advise about stuff you don't really have a clue about.
not saying you wanted to spread misinformation, but a quick read of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_recovery#Logical_damage and you would've learnt something that could be brought to immediate use. wouldn't that be awesome? aren't you trying to absorb as much useful information as possible? so, do it now!

If that doesn't work you'll have no alternative but pay a thounsand or so euros\dollar to a restorage company which has machines you can't buy for home
http://buyonline.ontrack.com/ecom/catalog.asp - seems to be pretty buyable for me.

And buy a UPS with your new PC. That way it will never happen again.
let me show you this, it's the power plug of an ups after a (strong) surge:


sure, go ahead and buy an ups if that gives you the feeling of perfect security. but keep in mind that it's just an illusion. anyway, his problem is solved. let's let this thread die :)

wrong. in about all aspects.

the surge probably busted your psu, not your mainboard.
yes, put your old hdd in the new pc. then try to access it. don't write to it. don't defragment it or change it in any way. run some data recovery tool (i've heard good stuff about ontrack, see if you can recover your files with that :)

you don't need an ups for power surges, you can get a quite cheap filter for them. look for power surge protectors.

why not just use this one for it, since this thread is where the discussion was born.
and why the heck are you telling others to stay on topic when you are discussing about forums instead of staying on-topic yourself?

#125

i'll scan the files for all occurances of the old path and will tell CJ when i'm home.

congratulations on that decision, it was a wise one.

yes, everything should be working as before. report anything that's missing here :)
#128
i'll look into it. i'm currently restoring the sites so the message should be gone in an hour :)
#129
yes, we're down for maintenance :)
there's a temporary irc channel on quakenet:
Code: ags
/server irc.quakenet.org
/join #ags
hello
#130
do what i say or be ignored.
#131
no. and i do not believe that you're running xp on 32 megs of ram, because that's impossible without a hacked windows installation cd, iirc.

anyway, get everest from http://dasjoe.de/everesthome220.exe, create a report (report button => system summary only => text version) and upload the file for us to see.
#132
no it doesn't. yes, i am aga.
just check the various sites on http://americangirlscouts.org and you'll see that some aren't really about ags or adventures :)

i think some kind of email-authentication would work as a deterrent. just make the player send you an email with his id and you send him some activation key. maybe encrypt the timestamp into it so you can make the key work for 24 hours.

or you could create the id from the "created on" timestamp of his game.exe and the download-id so the activation key would only work for his file. pgp sign it and make your game check the signature.

maybe just a bit over-the-top ;)

General Discussion / Re: Free 3D for everyone!

beat you, blender is free until.. until.. at least one day longer than any other 3d software.

..and hope mod_rewrite is on, and that the server is apache ;)
#138
ali, check http://americangirlscouts.org/ to see who and what our server is.
we are running a dedicated server for our domains and some other stuff, like irc and cs. i don't exactly know how much we charge for hosting, i think it's around 60 euros/year without and 65 with a domain. for that you get virtually unlimited space and no limits in downloads/uploads per month.

update to the latest version of winrar or 7-zip, no errors for me. i could upload a working .7z of the game if you want :)
