I believe there was one CVS server to house them all...and it is gone, gone...gone.

Doesn't anybody have a dump of that last code somewhere he could put online? Hard to believe nobody forgot to do the spring cleaning around here...

I obviously have one, last update was between October and December 2005 btw when we fixed some bugs and updated the game to TGE 1.3, hence why I get a bunch of TGE liscensees emailing me about specific files or items from the RW CVS. I suspect GG probably has one buried away in a backup location too.

Unfortunately just hosting the RW download files gets expensive, the file moves a minimum of 2GB worth of transfersa month, so I don't know if, when or even how the CVS for this puppy could get going again.

I have hosting with at least 3GB/month available. No CVS possibility though, it would have to be a zip file of the entire repository... Can you tell me the size of the thing, just to know if I will have to upgrade the hosting service, if possible.

Thanks

It would be great if someone has the project and can upload it again.
I must check how much traffic/month i have, maybe i can host it too.

With a update to 1.5 it can be "restarted", since many people here look for something like RW.

Hosting the project files would be a tiny bit illegal since you aren't allowed to redistribute Torque source code regardless if its for good intentions or not.

As for the WWDC download, each of the files were about 50MB a piece and the bandwidth they used per month was between 4 and 6 GB. Enough to bring aplus.net to its knees a few times before we moved the files over to MGT for hosting.

With a password access and only for TGE-Owners, it's illegal?

TGE-MK used this system:

And until now garagegames hasn't stop this project.
