Can we remove servers with undownloadable levels?
There seem to be a lot with levels that are not available any more which is probably the reason a lot of these servers are not played. Is there anything we can do?

When a level is not available, I just download it from Here & then put it in the d3 missions folder.
Unless of course the level the server running isn't listed there, then I would need the level auto downloadable.

Yeah I have done that a couple of times. But most players are too lazy (inluding me most of the time) to do that and I end up playing the level by myself.Sir Sam II wrote:When a level is not available, I just download it from Here & then put it in the d3 missions folder.
I am going to go through some of the servers and make a list of undownloadable levels.

BTW: The download links CAN differ from server to server ok? So if there is a mission running on one server with NO working links, there could be another one with the same level but working links...
For example: I am hosting a server with Canyon Siege atm that DOES have 3 working links. This mission GOT an URL-update already by me, but the serverops have to get that updates and overwrite their old / outdated missions then. As Canyon Siege is from DwnUndr I'll mail him to enforce him to send TopGun a file...
Like i said: I will try to get a major update together in some time and inform all the Gameserver-Ops to update their files...

Erm. BTW: Just got an email from DwnUndr who told me \"I just downloaded Canyon from PD and checked the urls, they are the new ones you must have put there. So, it seems to be updated.\"
Ergo: The Label for \"Canyon Siege\" is \"Canyon\" at PD so it IS there already![Smile :-)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

You know what the sad thing is? I downloaded that level myself yesterday after seeing it on a populated server, and I had the same confusion myself as to whether or not this was the Canyon Siege everyone was always talking about.
I've gone ahead and changed the label in the PD database, so hopefully no one else will be confused about this.
