Fran, I sent you (I think) only about 50..;) Hotmail's limited to a 10 meg attachment. How's 254 emails sound?..;) gad..;)
OK, here's the deal. I've been downloading mats since '01.Or was it 02?..;) Now I could send all the mats out, but I don't want to get the anti-piracy crowd after me. Here's what I can do, though.
I can run a query in Access for 'mat', and it will show where every mat I have downloaded is on my CD backups. I also have the URL of where I unloaded it from. I could make this available to whomever wants it, though some of the sites are members of 'club 404'..Lannies' 3d World being a prime example (had some great stuff, but they got vacuumed into oblivion by download accelerators, alas). You could go to these sites and download whatever is still around.
I could zip them all up into 1 big Zip file, but it's going to be holy @#$% for anyone on dialup. Some of these mats are 11 meg all by themselves. I know the Lannies' mats, Ukko 3d's 'USS Derelict' , etc., are either seldom or not available at all.
If AS or Zhann wants to park the zip in the Back Room, it's no nevermind to me. I have thumbnails
of a few hundred, but not all of them (a good many are in freestuff anyways, so go back and see what you're missing. Wolfie's 3d, Lunariad, 3d Commune, etc., are where I got most of them.
Let me know what you think. I'll try to see if I can zip 'em up tonight. Film at 11..;)
I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit
