Bearcat Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Remember that there is a section at Mission 4 today that has been set aside for IL2 BoS content. Upload your stuff there folks.. Missions .. skins .. third party utilities.. Any content for this sim that you make, whether it is aircraft guides or what have you... Put it up there. They have been gracious enough to recognize this sim as a member of the IL2 family, which it is... so let's get that stuff up there so that it can be shared by a wider group of folks.... If this community is going to grow we have to do some of it ourselves.. and we can't do that by staying at home and we cannot depend solely on the devs to do it. They are doing their jobs as best they can.. and we can do just a wee bit more by spreading BoS content however we can. Mission4Today IL2 Battle of Stalingrad Downloads Section For the record.. this is not an "official" request or suggestion... I just have a bit more time on my hands of late and as I close some doors and prepare for others to open it occurred to me while surfing the forums that the BoS section of M4T was kind of sparse.. and we have a lot of great user made stuff.. Fantastic skins, interesting missions are coming, Chuck's guides are incredible... and some of the other stuff is banging as well... so let's rack it up. I am going to leave this stickied for a spell unless there are some objections from on high... 1 1 2
Bearcat Posted May 6, 2015 Author Posted May 6, 2015 The process is not as straightforward as you may expext but very simple once you do it. Below is a guide . Upload Guide @ Mission 4 Today
coconut Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 Done Uploaded my attacks on Kalach (waiting approval ATM). Hope others will follow! 1
Bearcat Posted May 7, 2015 Author Posted May 7, 2015 I think that getting more content out will only help the sim.
Urra Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Hopefully, as soon as my FMB is working with the next patch, I will be able to contribute something to this archive as well. (After learning how to use it...).
216th_Peterla Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Hi Bearcat. I was trying today several times and getting error on the upload. Doesn't matter if I paste the url from app box or uploaded from my computer itself. I will try again tomorrow. anyways let me know if you guys had any suggestion about why is failing the upload(I follow the instructions and not moving away from the screen while uploading files)
JG13_opcode Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) M4T and the related sites have always had the most horrible user interface I've ever seen. I don't know what it is, but they just can't seem to make a simple content section without making it massively over-complicated and unintuitive. Frankly I think you'd be better off just uploading it to Mega and putting a link in a thread here on the forum. Edited June 29, 2015 by 13GIAP_opcode
MasterBaiter Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Mission4Today is well better than just adding links after links on forums... 1
Bearcat Posted June 29, 2015 Author Posted June 29, 2015 Yes it is and given the resource it is to the CFS community it would seem to be a no brainer to add content there since they have been gracious enough to give us space for that purpose.
Dakpilot Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 With hundreds of thousands of downloads having taken place there, and literally the entire IL-2 community using the place I really don't see the downside to having BoS content promoted there. Especially with one of the main complaints about there not being enough SP content for BoS, Many people do not even know about some of the great new SP content that is being created, without publicity and downloads the Authors will eventually wonder why they do it, The best way to ensure more new content is to promote what we have, more SP content = more players = more MP/Co-op missions = more players = more New Aircraft, New features and theatres and more new SP content Cheers Dakpilot
Jade_Monkey Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 I agree that M4T is awesome and there is already a lot of work put into it (content, brand recognition, etc). However, when i tried to upload my campaign i found it harder than it should have been. I think the site needs a little facelift and maybe reorganization of the content structure? 1
Thad Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 Salutations, I agree with Jade_Monkey. My eyes glazed over when I took a look at the "Upload Guide". Perhaps they should make it more involving, complicated and time consuming.
352nd_Wheels Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Thanks for the plug Bearcat. Sorry I didn't see it sooner. If you can fill out an online order form to buy something you have more than enough skill to use the uploading facilities at M4T. It is simply fill in the blanks and submit your files. Plus if the guide seems too daunting we are more than willing to help anyone through the process when asked. There is also an option for you to edit your own uploads if you make a mistake or want to update the file. The biggest problem we see is dead links to files hosted at other file sharing services since they will delete files that aren't downloaded often enough. M4T has no such policy. Once you upload a file we keep it on our servers. Stop in say Hi and let us host your content. Wheels 2

[Re-Edited] Oh yeah, great edit. That quoted sentence still just isn't correct. Files hosted at mediafire.com don't vanish. Accounts at M4T might vanish though. Like it or not. Cheers! Mike Edited April 8, 2018 by SAS_Storebror Lies don't become truth just by repeating them and not by editing out their rectification either.
Bearcat Posted April 15, 2018 Author Posted April 15, 2018 No that edit is just what it needs to be. Whatever issues you have with M4T.. THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO VENT THEM.
