WC Demo

Does anyone know of a mirror site for Microprose. I have only been able to get onto their ftp site once and it timed out before I downloaded all of wcdemo.zip.

Could somebody mail or post the name of the MicroProse ftp-site. I'd like to get the demo too, and I tried to mail this guy, but the mail bounced. Maybe if I can (copyright/distribution wise) and the files aren't to big I can put them on an ftp-site, maybe. But I'll first have to get them.

ftp.microprose.com Unfortunately, the site is heavily overloaded and it's very hard to get on (especially with bastards like me using FTP clients which can retry every second until I'm on!). I'm going to place copies of the three patches and the demo on my WWW site (http://www.mal.com/~dgymer/home.html - follow the link to the game utilities) so anyone can get them from there. (f1gpe.zip - the 1.05 patch - is 34% complete right now!) Chisa -- Gizmo -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Launchpad is an experimental internet BBS.

I dunno about FTP-wise but I do have a small collection of stuff on the F1GP/WC PC Home Page - http://www.mal.com/~dgymer/home.html and follow the link to the game utilities.
