In memoriam of the Spaceport

Recommended Posts

Spaceport was indeed a pile of security vulnerabilities, terrible navigation, a really horrendous backend, and some weird programming to somehow make it all work together. It should've gotten the axe ages ago, and it could've gotten the axe months ago. The fact that data will be lost is simply something you will have to accept. Blame the mod creators for their choice of license, or for their refusal to reupload, or blame Squad for partnering up with Curse (which, inevitably, chased away some mod creators that are now no longer willing to reupload.) But at the end of the day, this is how it goes.

Ah, spaceport... A good idea with the least intelligent search feature in the last decade.

-search for "docking port"

-18 overpowered custom ships pop up, plus a weaponry mod and something I can't decipher that has been downloaded once, ever.

I eventually gave up and learned about mods through word of mouth on the forums then searched for their respective threads.

I've seen mods you people wouldn't believe... Airships floating off the shoulder of Laythe. I watched lazors glitter in the dark near the Eeloo Gate. All those moments... will be lost in time, like tears... in the rain. Time... to die...

Sorry, Fiddlestyx. It was stated on the first day we started with Curse that Spaceport would be taken down in a month's time. If you didn't see it, though, while Spaceport's going away, it's also been backed up.

Wait... I have to upload my mods to Curse? I figured SpacePort would stay up, you just couldn't upload any new mods. Ah well, my mods are dead (maybe someday I'll upload them to Curse).
You can host them whereever you like. Curse, Nexus, dropbox, whatever. I've not bothered with putting my own mod on Curse yet (mainly because it's way incomplete).

Also, shamelessly looting the Spaceport ATM. Just going through the mods in order of popularity, and coming across some interesting stuff. Maybe some time I'll pick one at random and try it.

RIP B9 Aerospace...

Unless someone can find a way to re-distribute it without breaking any rules...

You know, bac9 is back in action. An update to B9 aerospace should happen within short time, as all we're waiting for is for Taverious to run some stuff through Unity. And it'll also implement the Firespitter Texture Switcher, which means that part bloat will be reduced a lot.
