EA store stuff in *.dbc format - a torrent

[witch]

I'm probably misremembering what I skimmed on the store thread this morning. 

[Turd Ferguson]

Well the new sets seem interesting enough. I've had the idea for a Cathedral styled tomb underneath the Goth Residence (which is only accessed by a keystone from City Hall's Cold War Bunker  ) and gothic furniture like that would fit nicely. Do you think you'll be able to get us an updated .dbc pack soon witch?

[witch]

No. I'm not going to keep doing this monthly.

If you have purchased the content, you should just be able to install normally.

Otherwise, your options are to follow the thread where people are making their own .dbc files via a third party app, or to try the other approach of using an old .exe so as to run the launcher effectively and add the packs to the .dbc files yourself.

The third option, conversion into package files, appears to cause lag for many.

Damn. I was gonna suggest that you could like update it every 3 months or something.

Hello Witch

I am interested in creating my own dbc.files. But I can't find any thread talking about that. Do you have a link, please?

Thanks in advance  

[Anach]

You don't have to. People can make their own .dbc files by following the instructions in my sig, they work just as well,  except they lack the ability to use the launcher with those files, but that is a small price to pay for the ability to create your own content packs, besides, how often does someone need to remove store content once it's installed.

[Alwayswatching]

In the readme file you say to install the dbd in 2 locations, one of which you say "install it wherever the framework is installed." Is that framework as in AwesomeMod?

[witch]

Yes.

[Alwayswatching]

Okay, just making sure. Thanks!

I created went through a lot of work to recompile a new dbc file with all the store files, including January's content; however, it seems I can't upload the torrentto any of the popular sites. If anyone wants to get an FTP connection going with me, so I can transfer the folder/torrent file, PM me.

Can't seem to upload? Bummer.

Hi

I've read something about a Dr Pepper's set? What is that exactly? Where can I download these items?

I've already searched on the EA store, but I did not find anything

Thanks in advance for your help

graycurse could you put it in a rar and split it up into 100 mb files and put it on hotfile?

[hjmmm]

Please please please can someone tell me if you need LimeWire to download these files?

Here are the links to the files - sorry, I forgot to put them into a folder so you'll have to download the parts individually

Part 2 - http://www.mediafire.com/?mjwjtyyvek1

Part 3 - http://www.mediafire.com/?mfzongejdkz

Which of these has JUST the Jan content? . . .

[ElectricSimmer]

Its all one file seperated. And parts 3 and 5 are corrupted. So you can't extract them

EDIT: Unfortunitly part 2 is partily corrupted too so basicly: These links don't work properly. Are you sure you can't upload the thing to any torrent service Greycurse since the RAR Archive is basicly corrupted. It would be easier to start a torrent than re-upload the Archive.

[Yecats]

Witch, I'll sing out and ask very nicely for a 1.7 .exe. 

If you can spare it, of course.

Ugh, they corrupted? I'm sorry. I'll try to upload again when I get home from work later today.

Do you have the Base or WA? You can just grab the .exe off of your CD and use that. Apparently, it doesn't require that you use a 1.7 .exe. I pulled the original off of my WA cd and used that. Worked fine and I now have Gothique and the rest just uploaded to the store thread in my game. All you really have to do is pull the exe you are using now out of your bin folder, drop in old version, install packs, pull old version out, put current back in and drop new .dbc file into your mods, or leave it where it is if you have modified your resource for that.

[witch]

Heh, ninja'd by morriganrant.

However, for those that may not have a disk, here is the binary from 1.7.9.

[graycurse]

Well for those who are lazy like me, here's the link to the torrent: http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/5277578

Thanks, this shouldn't be corrupted buuuuut there are like 28 leechers and no seeders. I'll try seeding it but it isn't gonna make much of a difference

EDIT: It's downloading but the speed is random. One minute it's @ 54Kbs and then its 154Kbs. At least it's downloading

And now it's downloading and uploading at less than 5Kbs. I quit.

Well... it seems I'm still the only seeder and I've got 30 leechers. I don't have the fastest internet in the world (used to, but I just HAD to move off-campus) so it's gonna be a bit iffy. Looks like someone's a little over 90% complete though so at least there will be another seeder soon.
