not a lot of us really use BitTorrent.

Somebody else tried to host some 3dfx movies for us but couldn't do it properly.  We have no problem downloading torrent files, but when it comes to hosting files, most seem to find it a pain in the bum.

Well, I have seen it  ;). And therefore  I can tell you the nam of the movie.  

The Nam of The movie the was on the CD-ROM that was distributed on te HCC dagen 99 ( the biggest dutch computer event ) is:



3DFX_ENG.MPG  ;D

yeah, i'm also downloading it from dutch ftp server.. (it'll take some days.. ;)

Hmzzz... I reached the 13.5kb/s mark  8). But i crashed after 24% 3 times in a row. I think Falconfly needs to put this file in his collection and fast. It wil save a lot of people some trouble with the dutch server.

What's the link to the ftp server? Maybe I can have a dig at it.  :)

ftp://213.10.80.171/3dfxMovies/3DFX_ENG.MPG

just finished downloading - this video rocks!! It's compressed  with mpeg2 - high quality stuff ;) I guess this movie is the same that VooDude talked about..

Urgh, can we have this file mirrored somewhere else please.  The server sucks.  >:(

For those who have the movie, can you host it somewhere a little faster?

err.. my server isn't quite ready for serving files yet and serving files on desktop pc isn't good solution i guess..

this night i will upload the file to our server and bring it up on www.3dfx.ch.

i think you can download it @06:00 AM(MEZ, Switzerladn) on Friday ;)

so the movie is now online  :D
visit http://www.3dfx.ch -> go to stuff on the left menubar there you can download the movie :)

@OutOfRange: nice project ;))

Indeed, nice server too.
I'm downloading the movie with 370+ KB/s.
haven't had that in a long time :o

It seems the original ftp link had a burst of increasing speed last night @ 9:00PM GMT.

Was able to download the video TWICE @ 72kb/sec. :)

And yet, it seems so little ;D

WAAA..... 72kb/s That is very Fast. If you consider the speed we used to download it with.

thanks :)

Damn. Omega do you live next to the server or something.
And have you tried Doom3 on you v5 6k yet?

No i had to send ik back for repair so i didnt have a 6K to test it with. And about the connection its a 100 mbit  ;D

NIce connection. But I thought the reparation was already finished. What was the problem with the card?

I also visited gallery.. nice collection of pictures.
In wallpaper section I found some pictures which I hadn't seen anywhere else (I collect them..) - where did you get them?
By the i'm creating some new 3dfx wallpapers from time to time, for example I just created a new wallpaper based voodooMAC 5500 box art using source image from the new 3dfx promotion video:

Is it possible to have a wallpaper more "feminine" ?  ;D  ;)

you mean creating some new wallpaper or modifying existing one?
