Mesh hunting

[Lord Elcorion]

It's been a long time since I've been here last, and even longer since I played these games. I lost a couple of my original discs, and the other day I found one, and got a hair up my rear to check Steam to see if they had the games there, and was able to grab a double pack with both for under ten dollars. Having reobtained the games, I started looking for meshes and skins again, and in the process of doing so, I found that the Yahoo groups that hosted meshes don't seem to work anymore? Does anyone know what might have happened to those meshes? Particularly I'm looking from Grenadier and Vertex meshes, I'm still unpacking a bunch of skins I downloaded, so I may come across more, and will update as needed.

Yahoo quit hosting extra content last year. Some of us downloaded everything they could, though, so.... what do you need?

I'll add a list once I have a better idea of everything I'll need. Might take a day or two, I grabbed a loooooooot of skins, particularly from http://www.alexff.com/index.php

This thread:

http://freedomreborn.net/forums/index.php?topic=58687.0

has a list of sites that are still active, as well as links to sites on The Wayback Machine. I haven't updated it recently but hope to get to that soon.

Thanks. I'll check it out.

Ha! Ha!  I literally did the exact same thing, only with GOG!  Started playing the original campaign to get a "feel" for things again and forgot how much fun it is!  Playing it through now (no mods).

I've found this directory to be pretty helpful.  It's not organized by author but there's a LOT in it: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/zrcb90e5nk6cb/Blender_Imports#5f3kvnakfcy9n

All of those Blender Imports (save for the ones under Style's Imports) are by DM

just stumbled onto some Vertex meshes and Gren keyframes via wayback machine:
