well slj has one on the forum, aprone has one kitchen.caldobsky.com
So well hmmm.
To be honest my archive is just for me, I may even take it down slj's
one is more complete than mine is but at the same time its the games.
I may actually post a dos only version of the archive with the dosbox
talking distro though to be honest there are 3 archives up, mine sljs on
temperary dropbox and aprones and the actual site which is up aprone has
a complete website mirror.
archive.org has a few sites you know it may be worth having someone
shove all his stuff to archive.org ofcause it would be public domain at
that point but whatever maybe and then link a url shortener to it.
TO be honest though new mirrors are all over the place.
And with all of that eventually I may just take mine down at some point.
it will be good if everyone has mirrors but to be honest once enough
have mirrors I may pull mine down its ok for what it is but my
connection and data cap is quite tiny.

Hi Aprone,
The way I see it the more people who can share the files the better.
While I also intend to mirror his site and games I would like to
perhaps repackage them and give them better Windows installers. While
the method he uses is functional it doesn't really cut it for today's
computing environment now that 64 bit Windows uses the Program Files
(x86) folder rather than the older Program Files folder and that just
confuses people to no end. So a new installer that would pick the
correct one would be an improvement, and I would like to repackage the
games to have a more updated installer. So perhaps we can work on
something like that besides just mirroring them as is.
Also I heard you live three hours away from Chardon, and if you can it
would be nice to have another VB 6 dev take control of his source.
While I could probably do it I am pretty busy and have a lot on my
plate and wouldn't be up to taking on that many games any time soon.
Plus while I know VB 6 it has never been my forte anyway.
Cheers!

I've grabbed a copy of his website and all of the downloads, and I plan to
host them on my site. I didn't realize anyone else had volunteered to do
so, so hopefully I'm not pushing anyone over by doing this. I suppose it
can only be a good thing to have Jim's audiogames legacy hosted in a few
places, just in case.I noticed that all but 1 of his GMHA board meeting
recordings is missing.
His Yahtzee game, winyaht2.exe keeps getting flagged by my Avast antivirus.
Can anyone confirm this, or is it just a false positive? I want to be 100%
sure it is safe before I go hosting it on my own site. I'd feel bad if
anyone was harmed by something they downloaded from me, even if I wasn't the
original author of the file.
