Title: Renegade's Toybox Backup
Post by: BentonGrey on April 06, 2026, 07:34:27 PM
Howdy folks, I'm looking for the big backup that was made years ago of all the materials from Ren's Toybox when the site went down.  I think there were like two big zip files with all of his hosted stuff.  I had these, but I apparently lost them in the last crash.  Are these hosted anywhere, or does anyone have them where they can share them?

I don't have those, but besides his work on Alex's site, I think I got some more from the backup on the wayback site and the groups when they were up. Looking for anything in particular?

D'oh!  I forgot that it all got added to Alex's site.  That will do me.  Thanks, RD!

So there's a lot that was on Ren's Site that's not on Alex's site - keyframes, fx's and maps as well as skins and meshes.

There's a way to check a wayback site for links instead of the normal page view. Sometimes the links are still bad, but it shows what was there.

The Toybox shows it had 355 zip files on it. Here's a link to the search page where you can see what it had. It looks like just about every link is bad since the earliest is 2011 after the site went down.

Ah, thanks RD!  Yeah, I have my immediate need, but it does look like there's a lot that isn't on Alex's site.  If anyone does have that backup, let me know.  It's not pressing or anything, but I'd just like to have it on hand.

I haven't compared to what's on Alex's site, but I've got the backups from Ren's 3 Yahoo groups, (if there were more than three, I didn't know about it), if there's still some things missing.
