Google Drive Invalidating Download Links

Postby NickyJ » Tue Sep 21, 2021 8:51 pm

Earlier this month, Google Drive changed the way that downloads are shared. The effect it has on us is that old Google drive link shared on the forums often come up as needing to request permission.

A lot of the files are archives from years ago, with creators falling out of contact. If anyone comes across dead links like that, post about them here. Chances are that another forum member has it saved somewhere. An example would be the calhoupe scripts from the files thread. I've got nearly every version that calhoupe has released, and will be updating the dead links there to point to my collection.

Thanks for the heads up on the changes in Google Drive. It's great to know that there are still members who are actively maintaining and updating archives on the forums. Having someone step up and share their collection helps keep valuable information accessible to the community. If anyone needs assistance with finding specific files, feel free to reach out and we'll do our best to help.
