Thank You
The community links on every Network site has been compromised and they redirected to a illegal warez site.
We have corrected this but unfortunately we could not recover the links to restore them. As a result all of the links have been deleted to protect the people who sent the original links into us.
While this could be seen to be a set back we are taking the view that although this has caused all the staff some extra work it is still a good time for a fresh start as some of the links were probably dead ones.
Some site managers have already started restoring known links on there sites
We would like you to either resubmit any link you had on your chosen site and submit new ones.
You can find the link in the left menu under "The Community"
This is not the affiliates but the links. Here is a example
The good people at Clanwarz have kindly donated a 100 slot Ventrilo server to us all here. The server is there for all FileFront patrons including the Network, Forums and main site.
It gives a great opportunity to get know each other a little better and maybe even get together in game.
As you have probably noticed in the Left menu on most (soon to be all) sites the new Ventrilo section. You can join the server by having Ventrilo installed and user name set. Then simply click the link in the left menu and join the channel that want.
If you wist to set it up manually then here are the server details
Ip / host name: nyc.clanwarz.com
Port: 4220 <<< important as it is not the default port.
Have fun in there people and play nice.
Speak to you all soon !!

...to be a staff member here ?
Have you ever been looking over your favourite game site and thought that you could really help out ?
If the answer is yes then we would like to hear from you. We are now recruiting staff for all sites and hopefully some new ones.
Some of our sites are fully staffed at the moment but don't let that stop you from applying to join our very friendly team here.
If your preferred site is fully staffed you will still be contacted to see if you could help out on a different site. We will still pass your details on to the site manager for that site just incase they need a extra pair of hands.
So what do we need from you to join us. Well not much really to start with.
First you must be 16 or over and have regular Internet access.
You must have good understanding of English (this is for news items and so on)
You must own the game for the site/s you are applying for, with the ability to run custom content (for testing submitted files)
If your application is accepted then you will also be required to register on our forums and visit the staff section at least once a week as updates and requests are posted there.
To apply simply copy the below template into a email and send it of to network@filefront.com
Make sure you fill out the games section including the ones that we do not have sites for at the moment.

Half-Life News
Good afternoon, everyone! For those that are interested in looking at the beauty of Earth's Special Forces 1.3, you've come to the right place! Today we'll be featuring one of the newest shaders: water.
For the past month, Raven and Jason has been working together as a tag team to finish the outstanding looking water shaders that have been in development. After all of the hard that they've been dedicating on this shader, it's finally almost done! So please enjoy a video of the brand new water shader that has been in development. Water splashes made by Dalte.
Beta Tester applications are closing in one week! This is your last chance to submit your application so you can have a chance to be a Beta Tester for the final release! So if you haven't submitted your application yet, follow this link! (click here)
It's been awhile since you guys have had something for your desktop, here's a new Wallpaper:
Time to grace your mornings with some new NNK goodness. Take it easy this week, sit back with a warm drink and admire the team you'll soon be able to beat the snot out of your friends with.
As always we're doing our best to get our project out there for you guys to play. This week we just had a return of one of our programmers who had to take a leave for his studies. We're glad to have him back and can't wait to show you what he's pumping out!
I am pleased to announce a few promotions for the network.
Mr.Funsocks, the lovable, huggable Network Administrator has been promoted to Asst. Network Manager and will become my right hand dealing with issues that arise on FileFront's game sites.
Goody10 of soldier of fortune files has been promoted to Network Administrator. FFxStalkerx of stalker files has been promoted to Network Administrator. Guyver3212 of WoWFiles has been promoted to Network Administrator.
The above three have shown fierce determination in ensuring that the network thrives and pushes forward. When it came to the need to add some fresh faces to fill in those ranks, it certainly wasn't easy to sift through all of the staff who easily deserve such recognition of their hard work, but these three came out on top and I'm sure you will see great things happen with them lurking about.
Congrats to all of you. Each and every one of you has earned this and should be proud!
Mario Kart: Source - Piranh'news #1! - Mod News Posted by: Skyrider on 06-10-2009 @ 20:22 - Source: Mario Kart: Source
This News Item has been viewed 20287 times!
Half-Life 2 News
Mario Kart Source aims to bring the fun and excitement of the Mario Kart series to the PC though the powerful Source engine used in Half Life 2. We hope to create the ultimate version of Mario Kart (MK) by combining all of the best aspects into one game. We're not simply recreating one version of MK, but using the best parts of each. We want to have all the traditional weapons, characters, and maps but also bring out new weapons that make game-play interesting. We're redesigning the maps so that they keep their appeal, but truly utilize the power of the source engine. We plan to have at least 16 different characters, all the ones you know and love as well as some others from the Super Mario World. We want this mod to reflect what you guys want in a Mario Kart game
Mario Kart: Source - Piranh'news #1!
Hello, humans. Welcome to Mario's world, my name is Page and you are all weak.
Someone paid me to write this shi.... this news. Firstly, I'm going to talk about the Dev Team. These guys are a group of hippies from all over the world. Their job is to make the "greatest Mario Kart ever", taking the best from each game. They are actually working on some nice things and levels, like the Race Mode, Skyscraper, Big Donut, and much other things.
Their leader, SilentJoker, left them some months ago. Now the rest of the team have taken command. They can make their own decisions now, so it's easier for administrating the forums and the website. Sh4rk left us too because his job is done here, and he said he doesn't need to stay anymore. Shadowwill also left us because of his studies. Studies and jobs are the plague of the team: All work is volunteer, with real life a constant obstacle in the mod development.
After those bad news, let me say that the motivation is there. The lead coder OneEyed said "I will ALWAYS be an MKS coder as long as I'm alive." I think it's true for all of the team, they will NEVER give up!
They are actually looking for some people to join the team in their open positions:
a GFX artist
another sound guy
a model animator
and a high quality mapper
Having experience of the Source engine is also a plus towards being part of the team.
Okay guys, I talked a lot about the Dev Team, but now I need to talk about the mod itself.Green Shell
Let's start by talking about a weapon: the Greenshell!
♪ Hurry! Let's kicking some karts with a greenshell! ♫
Hm... sorry. The greenshell is one of the main weapon of every MK games. Some people think they are made by killing some turtles. That's true, they are (Mario's world is cruel). You are going to use them to shoot your opponents in this battle and race game. But it's a linear projectile, so don't forget to aim! You can use it in every one of our levels, like Pipeplaza.
Wait, you don't know Pipeplaza? That's simple: Pipeplaza is a plaza, with magical pipes. No, it's not a joke. There is four pipes in this famous battle level, and when you enter a pipe you jump out from another. That's simple right?
And now I'm going to introduce a famous character... Mario. It's a red dressed Italian plumber who has never plumbed anything. He spends his time by playing sports or party games with his friends. Everyone on the earth knows him, and everyone is jealous: we are dreaming for a job like it.
Earth's Special Forces is now looking for new blood to fill in the Beta Testing roster for the last time. So if you're interested in testing ESF's final release, head on over to the application page!
Remember to read the rules and apply only once. If you have any questions or comments, visit this thread. Applications will close on June 21st, 2009. Please note that your application can be seen by anybody.
Last Sunday, Harsens stepped down as lead coder and passed the title on to Raven, one of the newest and most devoted coder that joined the team in January of 07. Congratulations, Raven! Well deserved!
Rick, a coder that previously worked on ESF has offered to come back to the team to help finish the final release. We couldn't turn down an offer from such an amazing coder, so from now on, Rick will be implementing brand new bots and a whole new bot GUI.
HL2Files is also in need for a few staff members who is willing to stick around. We are in need of News & File Posters! We are not looking for Forum Moderators or comment moderator though. Do you wish to join? Then please take a look at the following form: http://halflife2.filefront.com/info/Jobs with all the information you need.

Terminator Resistance Now Recruiting! - Mod News Posted by: Skyrider on 05-31-2009 @ 04:07 - Source: Terminator Resistance
This News Item has been viewed 22595 times!
Half-Life 2 News
Terminator Resistance, an upcoming Half Life 2 Co-Op Survival Mod Is Currenty Recruiting For:
MAPPERS
SKINNERS
CODERS
MODELERS
MORE!
Story:
It is the year 2019, the Resistance has just won it's first battle against Skynet due to the leadership of John Connor. The war continues.....
Gameplay:
TR will involve cooperative survival between each player against Skynet. Every player will be able to select a different set of classes such as support, sniper, rifleman, etc. The maps will be open free roam, with many obstacles and various passages to choose from, while Skynet will be heavily scripted AI. Skynet enemies will include T-700's, T-800's, Hunter Killers, and more. Each map will have different objectives, ranging from starting a car to blowing up a facility.
Please remember that this is mostly an idle server, created to give you the weapons and new hats that valve recently added in to the game. Please remember that you will get the weapons & new hats as long you stay in this server. It might take minutes, to even hours before you will get them, blame VALVe for adding a drop system in the first place! Select a team, a class and you can either have fun or just idle! Here are the servers:
Does this server really give you items?! I want my hats!
Yes, in time you will be getting your items when being and staying in this server. As mentioned above, please make sure you stay in this server! This is because getting the items will take time.
I'm not getting any weapons or hats, you are a fake!
Many people, including the server owner got items by playing or idling in this server. If you are not receiving any items, it mostly means this server is not properly connected to the weapons layout (server needs to be restarted), or you are logged out in your steam friends. Log in or restart steam to make sure and try again!
Why did you created this idle server in the first place?
I personally dislike the drop system especially since it takes hours just to get an item. And when you waited a long time to get something, you'll notice it's a duplicate! So I decided to create a server for people to idle or to have fun on and to get the items in time. A bit cheating you say? I personally don't think so. So far, I (Skyrider) been playing this week for over 36 hours, so far I got over 7 duplicates, and 3 new weapons, and that's it! While I see others getting the new weapons and hats so easily.
Are there more servers like this one?
Yes, there are. Many people are hosting them but mostly are full. Though, I created a total of 5 servers for you guys. The same displayed on top of this news, but without a button / banner.
195.242.237.116:29090 | HL2Files.com Server #1 : By INX-gaming.com (24 slots)
85.234.148.4:27065 | HL2Files.com Server #2 : By INX-gaming.com (20 slots)
85.234.148.30:27195 | HL2Files.com Server #3 : By INX-gaming.com (20 slots)
195.22.100.140:27015 | HL2Files.com Server #4 : By DS-GameSolutions.net (16 slots)
95.211.15.155:27015 | HL2Files.com Server #5 : By GameServers.com (12 slots)
I got kicked / disconnected! What's up with that?!
Please remember that not all servers can be perfect. You can either be kicked to make space for a VIP (such as a reserved slot or an admin), but we only kick people with the lowest play time! Can also happen that the server requires a reboot/shutdown for something new or an update. Or the server crashed and restarted automaticly which disconnected you. Speaking of the topic. If you think you deserve a reserved slot so you can join at any time, you can email me at Skyrider@esforces.com. There is only 1 admin in this server by the way, which is FF|Skyrider with the SteamID STEAM_0:0:11715230. Found a copy/cat or fake admin? Also email me please. Type "stats" in the console (without the ") to get all the SteamID's in the current server you are playing.
One of the most key features in ESF are Power Struggles. Ever since the Alpha days, Power Struggling has always been an important factor in ESF. Over the past couple of years Power Struggling has improved both gameplay (pumping) and graphic wise (beam heads). Today you will see the brand new evolution of Power Struggles. Dalte, the brand new team member who works on the FX has been working on the Power Struggle graphics for the past few weeks. Though this effect is major WIP, we want you guys to have a taste of what we see ingame. Also, ignore the annoying red circles as they'll be gone soon.
Congratulations Dalte89 on joining the team! From now on, Dalte89 will now be working with the FX tool to create amazing particles and effects. Welcome to the team!
First off, I'd like to apologize for not updating as often as I should. There has been a lot of progress behind the scenes lately, and in return, a few nasty bugs have popped up which has prevented me from doing a few things. Now that most of these nasty bugs have disappeared, I say it's time for a proper update! Ever since Dalte89, joined the team, our graphical progress has been moving very swiftly. We've seen astonishing explosions, beautiful transformation effects, extraordinary beams, and incredible looking dust. Unfortunately, most of those aren't ready for the public eye yet. So, today, you will be taking a glance at the brand new Spirit Bomb! For those with good eyes, you might catch a few more effects that Dalte has been working on, too! Note that the Spirit Bomb is heavy WIP. Enjoy!
Quote:Meet the Spy has been leaked, as seen in the big activity in the main forum. Everybody with an iPhone or iPod can view it by going onto youtube with said device. This thread is in anticipation for when the mods inevitably move the activity over here, and the inevitable official release of the video.
Personally I think this was one of the best ones yet, maybe even better than Meet the Sniper.

Dawn of War Dark Crusade: Assault on fortress
Assault on Fortress is a straight up attack the base with all you've got map. This map is for anyone who is crazy enought to launch a chaotic drop-pod attack on a fortress full of heretics and deamons in the form of Chaos marines while trying to fight metre by metre to gain control of some backwater fortress before the ruinous powers of Chaos complete a omplete a blasphemic ritual and save the Imperium of man in the name of the Emperor!

Supreme Commander: Flat Isis
The name of this map is a little misleading as this is basically set in an almost matrix-like kind of canyon, you will see what I mean in the screenshot. Terrain is a plain desert and combat types are equally shared between air and land combat, due to the lack of water naval combat is not possible here.

"Earth: Town," by Xavious is - as you might expect from its descriptive if simple name - a town on Earth. Of course the twist here (is this really a twist?) is that we have stormtroopers and the like duking it out in this familiar setting.

Jedi Knight III: RPG Carida Academy
Roleplaying maps are my favorite type because, well, I'm a roleplayer! How about that? I've reviewed a few RP maps in the past and most of them were somewhat lacking in the... pretty department. It seems that roleplaying mappers just find a map and shove in as much RP content as possible without trying to make it look all that pretty; fortunately that's not the case in this map and the mapper has managed to make a military base, something that COULD have been a bunch of ugly gray boxes everywhere, into something pleasing.

Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Tau Arena 8 Player
Tau Arena is a fast paced, open and very detailed eight player map! This map is very impressive. There is a great design and concept behind this map. There are 8 circular starting points with high walls in a ring fashion surrounding each base - in the centre lies a large colosseum like arena with extremely aesthetically pleasing walls and flying butresses jutting out from those walls.

Battlefield 1942: Cliffs of Insanity
It is now August 1942. These barren, rugged, cliffs on the Western coast of Norway give the Germans a strategic position for deploying V2 rockets and artillery. These pose a threat to the nearby British Isles, so a special unit of American Rangers has been deployed to counter the situation.

Well, here we have an interesting map. Featuring a small city, mountains, and a harbour, it promises some interesting gameplay. For those who like urban combat, you can fight in the city. For those who love slugging it out with your enemy's defenses, try to fight your way up to the Teehaus (better known as the Eagle's Nest, one of Hitler's headquarters locations.)

Star Wars Battlefront 2: Hidden: Mygeetan Jedi Temple
This map by GEmAsus2C (apparently set on the planet "Hidden?") loosely follows a story outlined in the readme, one with which I was never able to follow along completely. Something about a hidden Jedi temple, which I suppose is evident enough in the title as well.

Battle for Middle Earth: Defence of Gondor v2
This is second version of Defence Of Gondor. We noticed that map was too easy when there are full of players playing so we made it harder. It is now much harder and we changed a bit the map itself. It now looks different from first version. Those who downloaded first version probably noticed that second level of Minas Tirith won't work. We tried to fix that but it isn't still working. We are sorry for that. We may do third version but we're not sure.

FA AI support is in the map, I also had help from Dragon Fly with the FA AI. At the moment there are a little over 2900 decals in the map to make it all look much better. At each start point you will find rocks to reclaim and of course there are many trees.
