www.ootpmods.com (Padresfans) down

The www.ootpmods.com (reshost from Padresfans site) is apparently having trouble. Is there a workaround or alternated site to get the all-in-one mod from? When I navigated to the site I got the following error in my web browser.

Yeah, I was just getting ready to post the same thing. There are some files that I was really wanting to download from there.

Keven has a mirror site, you just need to enter his server into add-ons central. Here's how.

I really appreciate what soadeathdealer is doing here with a mirror site for the community.

But what Padresfan was doing and what the new website offers is invaluable to the community. I think it is not ridiculous to say that it is vital to the long term success of OOTP.

I know that there are legal issues to be sorted out, and worked through. But it seems to me that it would really be in the interest of OOTP Developments to do something to assure that a site of Padresfan's quality is up and running. This is especially true immediately after release of a new version of the game and at the start of a new baseball season.

I don't think it's ridiculous to say that almost any new customer purchasing the game would be searching for the the all-in-one mod. I believe the customer base has an expectation that such a thing (not supported by OOTP) exists and is available.

It seems to me that there has got to be a legal way for OOTP Developments to assure that a site similar to the wonderful site Padresfan ran is available and accessible for almost all of the mods.

The OOTPMODS.COM site is up this morning! Thanks Charlie Hough and any others who helped bring the site back up!

The main reason I didn't find soadeathdealer's site as helpful, is because all I can see is the name of the mod in the Addons Central.

The other site has descriptions, and they are organized by category, etc.

I have descriptions for the mods u just have to click on them and if u use the dark skin its a bit harder to see. I plan on adding more descriptions as I go.but they have categories tho not sure u can see it but its on the XML. The website I'm building will have categories and such .
