    I've spoken to Sim/Gren before about backups for the site and they do run backups on the same server which IMO isn't great. I posted a thread last year after I read about a major MS Flight Simulator modding site that got hacked and had all of it's files deleted including the backups and told them they need to look off site backup or backup to optical media but don't think it ever got actioned. No doubt Sim will post a thread explaining what went wrong but judging by the amount of time it's been down its not good.

    Yeah I can't download any mods there, or post, etc same as you guys

    The only frustrating thing is tho that I want to DL these two files on the site in order to run this mod for ETW
    and my browser cannot access the page. Not sure if its with the site or just the files

    So we'll see, hopefully it'll be back up tomorrow or later today

    You can ask in our ETW forum if someone have them. I'm sure Pevergreen() is waiting someone to help.

    I'm sure the powers that be at TWC are scurrying franticly to get the site back up. Hang in there fellas.

    Meanwhile, to the TWC refugees: Welcome! Enjoy your stay. We're Happy to provide blankets, radios and hot coffee to any and all totalwar fans.

    OK: the blankets are virtual, the coffee is Java and not exactly hot, and the radios are tuned to stations we like... still, we hope you'll enjoy your stay in this troubled time. If you need help with anything, click my avatar and send me a Private Message. I'm sure we can accommodate almost anything you require, short of TWC files.

    I thought it would be fixed once the Jewish sabbath was over, but either it's trickier than I'd envisaged, or Sim is unavailable. It might be the former, as GED sounded quite frustrated with the problem when I asked him about it.

    Sim also keeps backups on his personal computer.
