Hello,

Did you use Firefox to open the webpages? If yes, that's probably why. Switch to Chrome instead!

I use Chrome and it says that "the page is not found" etc.

But maybe that's just me, because I have encountered several issues like that lately (pages not found, but working few weeks later like simsasylum.com which I could not access for 2 months on my computer, even though I could on my phone).

Hello,

I'm having the same issue, so yes, there is probably some kind of maintenance going on.

But I tried downloading each of the 2012 and 2013 Store Contents, but not one of them worked. Always gives me error 


" HTTP ERROR: 504
Gateway Timeout
RequestURI=http://www.games4theworlddownloads.org/ts3/store2013/files/january/LullabiesSET.rar "








I tried using IE and Chrome, but same results.
Please help me.
Thanks.

I hope I posted in the right thread

I don't like the way the website looks. It's not very modern and the color scheme isn't very pretty. Also the text is really big
Ehh I have some other feedback but I can't think of it atm.

I am grabbing the torrent for store updates but that only takes me to june 2011.  Will there be a torrent for the rest of 2011, 2012 and up to current 2013?  Or should I just wait until the download site has everything up and working?

Great job by the way on all the work on Sims 3.  I lost it all a while back but am now downloading it all again for the new computer.  So nice...just SO nice...to have a place I know I can trust for downloads and with an administrative group that works so hard for us.  Just wanted to assure you that my questions are just seeking info and are in no way a criticism.  I can't imagine the difficulties in getting everything up and running for a website.

Unfortunately the layout is as it is now, I can't change it like 1-2-3. IF we plan on updating the layout, it'll be at least after a year of the initial release.

The problem with things like dropbox, mediafire and the others is that - sooner or later - they will be taken down again. And then G4TW would have to start over - again.

//EDIT

By the way Admin, is it possible that there could be problems for users with dynamic IP adresses (or IP adresses from Austria in general) ? The only way I can regularly access the site and download stuff from is by using a webproxy. Otherwise it works only very rarely for me. I've tried tweaking with the internet options, even resetting the Internet explorer, but it didn't help. So my guess is that it might have to do with my dynamic IP adresses.

The browser loads and loads, only to show in the end that "the site's server takes too long to respond" (don't know if the translation is correct, lol).

But no hurries, I don't necessarily need that "store stuff" any time soon.

Adminator wrote:Hi there,

Could it be blocked over there? I don't think so...

I don't have any similar problems with other sites either. I have no idea what could be wrong; sometimes it works perfectly, but most of the time not at all.

The other explanation could be that I'm trying to access the site at times when too many others are accessing the site too...

//EDIT

But nevermind; I can use a webproxy, or maybe I'm somehow lucky, and I access the site at the right time.

I tried re-downloading it, and got the same message when I tried to unzip the new one. (Again, with WinRAR.)
I had the same problem with Lunar Lakes, but re-downloading it seemed to help. Is this a problem with me, or with the file?

Other than that, the site is great, the downloads are great, and I love you guys!
