but it has similar facial features (no eyes, one large mouth), is white coloured with blood, has claw hands...

I see how it's similar. can't tell if that was consciously copied or not though.

but those legs look way to small to support that much weight.

There is no white fur

Has it been proved that smablers have fur? It could just be wrinkled loose skin.

100% proven. the lightning is a result of shambler's fur being rubbed the wrong way

Do fiends have eyes? Do Shamblers have fur?
Yes. Yes.

Yeah

That thing looks more like the demon in El labyrinto del fauno (Pan's Labyrinth), which was based off Y'golnac.

Well bugger me with a canoe - I didn't know the shambler/fur question had been officially answered.

#22346 posted by Spirit on 2013/02/25 22:03:44

Yes but is it long wooly fur or shaggy coaty fur.

sock and necros, what tool do you guys use for zipping? Quaddicted has/had trouble with your zip files which is why the 1.1 of ITS is not up yet. Grasping at straws here. I even tried repacking the file using "zip" and also "7z" (to zip) without success.

@spirit

#22355 posted by sock on 2013/02/26 17:13:05

I use winzip v14.0 (8688). I bought it a couple of years ago because I have used it so much over the years. It is not the latest version but it is dated 2009. What sort of trouble are you having?

#22356 posted by Spirit on 2013/02/26 17:33:17

Sajt once wrote me a php tool that generates the metadata and serves as a editor for our reviews, it scans zip files and creates the filelistings. For some files I always get a message about the file header being bad.

I think asking what you use was not goal-oriented anyways though since I tried other tools with no success. Confusing!

Fucking flu, my head feels like a tarbaby in vacuum. Thinking is hard.

#22357 posted by sock on 2013/02/26 17:41:45

Ah I wondered how you got that information. I checked my version of winzip and I am using maximum capability so it should work. I am not sure why you do that with the header, my zip has all the files tucked away in a pak file.

I wish there was a way you can tell how many times the file has been downloaded. The web page for the zip has no details. It also has user ratings and no comments which is odd.

Not very scientific (no '(bot|crawl|spider)' and only unique IP addresses over some months):

apsp3.zip: 379*
its_demo_v1.zip: 157
dm5rmx.zip: 222**
dom3m1.zip: 197
honey.zip: 590
something_wicked.zip: 339*

* "hosted at Quaddicted" in the release thread
** "mirrored at Quaddicted" in the release thread

Numbers are only meaningful if the file was "hosted" exclusively.

Most people downloaded from your site and moddb. And of course no one downloaded the update from Quaddicted. :\ How many did you get?

I'll try to remember to add statistics when I do the long overdue 2012 review and the "thanks for yer monies" post.

I use 7zip, no idea about the version. Not too old though.
