Dead links all over the site?

Greetings everyone!

I hope this is the right subgroup for such a request.
It has come to my attention that many download links for SWBF1 mods (maybe also SWBF2) no longer work. Can anything be done about this issue? I lost my mod backup several years back and no longer have access to mods like BF 1.5, the Jet Wars custom campaign among many others.

Note: I have saved some mods that aren't available on sites like ModDB and I am considering uploading content there for preservation sake.

Any feedback is welcome.
Thanks

When the site moved to a new host it caused a number of links to break.

If you can share which downloads aren't working we can see if we can fix it on our end.

Thanks.  I will ask that you use a dropbox for your files you want to upload then I can manually add them to the archive.  The automatic upload system is extremely limited.

If you are familiar with FTP I may also be able to set that up for you.   :cheers:

Lastly, note that the files are served with HTTP and not HTTPS and some browsers (chrome) will block HTTP

I'd rather not get involved with using Microsoft services xD.
I can setup a Mediafire or MEGA driver as an alternative, any other preference you might have could work.

I'd like to note that I don't use Chrome as my default browser, any other Chromium based browsers i have are not my first choice. I am a fan of the Gecko engine.

As for the FTP, I have only used this for file sharing on a local network.

As long as you have them uploaded somewhere, we should be able to have it added into our downloads section  :cheers:

Bald is beautiful's thread is : http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=2121.msg23351#msg23351
I couldn't find the thread of "Tatoine: Early Morning"

Also i came across some other dead links:
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=downfile&id=1101
http://files.swbfgamers.net/SWBFgamersfiles/maps/NabooPlainsMod.zip

Silver CIS Mod By Sleepkiller

http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=downfile&id=367

I will continue posting on this thread in case i find something else.

I'd like to note:my modding collection consists of mods by Ty294, Gogo12, ports from bf2 and the psp games,full on conversion like star fire,bf legacy among some other random ones. If anything of these categories seems to be missing, let me know and I will upload it when i get the chance.

At least one of those links is likely to stay dead.

--SWBFEA Demakes

Completed:

On Hold:
--Star Wars Battlefront: Elite Squadron For SWBF1

Bald is beautiful's thread is : http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?topic=2121.msg23351#msg23351 --> Xfire videos won't be able to be re-uploaded, and Snake is retired... So I guess you're gonna have bad luck on this.
I couldn't find the thread of "Tatoine: Early Morning"

Also i came across some other dead links:
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=downfile&id=1101 -- Just like in said in previous replies, attachments might be lost for good...
http://files.swbfgamers.net/SWBFgamersfiles/maps/NabooPlainsMod.zip - This file is no longer in the files. What was it exactly? Perhaps I can query some other name.

Silver CIS Mod By Sleepkiller
http://www.swbfgamers.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=426 -- Fixed

Rebels Side Mod By Phobos
