Do you think people would use it? Would it be any use?
Just image: configs, textures, maps, models, sounds, conbacks, console fonts, mods, demos, "my whole qw setup" packs, ... (I'm sure everyone can add at least 10 other things here)
What people use most nowadays? DC++? emule?

Would be awesome. DC++ seems to be the best choice (though I haven't used it yet).

quake movies

no need for QW movies when we got them all on blueyonder

Think about all those short 1 minute movies people are creating (because it's really ez with ezQuake ) but (the movies) are too noob to be placed them on blueyonder but also very funny to have a look at once.

lots of places can support under 50 mb files!
rapidshare etc

Sassa no like p2p ;C

It's very uncomfortable. You have to upload every single new file you create and publish the link 'somewhere'. In p2p you just share your folder with stuff.

yeah! make a dc++ hud
i have lots of stuff to share and nicely organised too

We would need to keep it 100% "shitfree", ie Quake related files ONLY.

Ok. Someone with a knowledge and server to run it?
I don't know any reason why people would join such hub with their warez content except for "hey why should I care to change shared dirs, I just use the same for all hubs".
I guess qw.nu guys are not open for this, I guess Sassa thinks I want to destroy gfx.qw.nu page that they are working on right now . (I think both these things can co-exist together very well, offering different content, different quality and comfort.)

i don't know how hard it's to make, but some torrent page would be best :/

Nope, torrents are harder to maintain (though have better speeds). In DC++ you can just share folders, with Bittorrents you have to create a torrent for everything...

DC++ ftw!

I just played around with Hub software a bit and startet a hub at (EDITED, address is 88.84.140.117:4444 and it is hosted on a rather decent server)
I'd like to test the load and speed. It is my home pc so it might be slow
Just come and test with me.

edit: ip

Ip is now: (EDITED, address is 88.84.140.117:4444 and it is hosted on a rather decent server)
I'm sharing a shitload of files. Not perfectly sorted but ...
I think I can start a "real" hub next week along something else

doesn't work for me
I'm getting like "unknown address"

it works

you're not doing it right

Sorry, I've got to switch off my pc for the next hours. ~5 hours and I am back.

then help me do it right

My whole c: is fucked... Sorry, but the hub will take some time. I think...

Well, I seem to be too stupid to setup stuff on a server...
If anyone here knows how to setup a dc++ hub on linux (windows was too easy, heh) please contact me.

I am not as stupid as I thought

dc++ hub for quake files is up and ready for TESTING: 88.84.140.117:4444

yay!

some dude actually waited 50 minutes for increasingphysicalabuse

it's not like he had to copy the bits manually or count the time till he got the file..

what's so hard to do your stuff (quake, irc, ms word, porn) while the computer downloads something slowly?

oh.. the good old days when i had a 56k modem..

torrent tracker is up too: http://88.84.140.117/

dc++ hub works fine for me.
tracker too.

ye well AquaShark I usually don't spend that much time on downloading quakemovies :F

so.. what are you waiting for?? get in here!!
