Hello. I hope all the "old hands" here at the forum are doing well. So. The reason I'm here typing stuff on the [mega]glest 'other topic' thread is that I'm looking for functioning download links for some of the old Glest factions and tilesets. One of the best old tilesets called "scrub land or scrubland" and faction "woodsman" made by forum user "Madelf or MadElf" have gone missing from the glest wikia download links. Someone made a copyright infringement claim on the tileset - hosted at my mediafire account. I've literally no idea why or how such a claim could be made, and I missed the emailed warning that the file would be deleted. And now it's gone. Anyone here happen to have a copy stored on a local hardrive?

I checked the Wayback Machine (WBM) with no luck. For some strange reason the old Glest Team seems to have blocked the wayback machine archive spider from taking snapshots of the old forum boards. If it had been allowed the files would've been captured and stored in the WBM server 'software' library.

I'm also looking for some of Titi's old glest factions: Indians and Norsemen and Egyptian. And Wciow's faction "Undead". I've archived groupings of old Glest files (maps, factions, tilesets, glest .exe client) at various (redundant) storage websites to guard against surreptitious and illegitimate copyright claims. Send me a private message for the archive link.

I understand why some people may not want to share these old files - new users mistakenly adding the old Glest files into the current megaglest build and breaking stuff. Yet all of the old files should be archived. It need not be advertised here. No need to confuse users.

I noticed someone redirected download links to my public domain mediafire map/tileset files at the old glest wiki and wholly deleted others. This happened a few years ago and persisted for a while. Nasty, petty, vindictive vandalism. All of the fan mods were supposed to be free, open source and in the public domain to encourage community sharing. Yet one or twobl people simply could not abide by those simple standards.

I also noticed some "woke" phrasing embedded in sections of the megaglest wiki. Slogans such as "all opinions are equal" which is of a class of phrases used as toxic wedges to usurp ownership, authority, leadership or control of; websites, gaming communities, game coding and software distribution.

All opinions are not equal. Especially the specious and poisonous notion that all opinion are equal.

Maps, tilesets and scenarios / New Map: Sea Side Control

Last post by RobotKiller001 - 25 June 2022, 16:55:23

Challenging map 2vs2, good amount of resources but hard to defend them.

In this map it's present the resource Pollen if you use the mod "Insects World".

The map it's called "Sea Side Control" here the download link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XMHfX5O2nMe_AoF9pLfjx7IyMuM7tsZ2/view?usp=sharing

Mods / a little something Ive been wo...

Last post by alexgbright - 1 June 2022, 04:48:41

this is a project Ive been doing to satisfy my creative itch, this is not a working mod yet in the slightest.
What i was trying to go for was making the tile set look like an actual map, kinda like what you see if looking at a map of Middle Earth.
the trees and mountains can be resourced for gold, stone, and wood.

Like I stated before, this isn't a mod really, more like a idea i had to see what it might look like.

feel free to give me feed back if its something i should continue on, and maybe end up being a workable mod in the future or just let me know if it just looks messy and dumb. lol

here are some screenshots i took.

Forum discussion / Is there any option to join in...

Last post by Burger_Elimenation - 27 March 2022, 15:19:10

Is there a way to configure a Megaglest server so that it is possible to join a game that is already running? Or are there no options to allow this on my Megaglest-Server?

Mods / primitive war(原始戰爭)

Last post by 小丑遊戲 - 8 January 2022, 15:03:22

這是之前我做的一個MOD：原始人faction的修改
https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=10117.0
目前還是只有一個陣營，就是Nomada陣營
但是比起之前，除了將之前的單位重新製作外
還多出了許多單位和建築，（目前還沒有科技研發的設計）
就如下圖所示：

This is a MOD I made before: modification of the original person faction
https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=10117.0
There is still only one camp at the moment, the Nomada camp.
But compared to before, in addition to remaking the previous units
There are also many more units and buildings, (there is no design for technology research and development yet)
As shown in the figure below:

這個之後還會再繼續更新，而且會陸續做出共三種陣營

translate:
This will continue to be updated after this, and a total of three camps will be made one after another.
