BUG: File Mirrors for TESSource.net


LHammonds

Recommended Posts

When I tried to update Lamps of Oblivion, it will not retain all 3 mirror sites. Even though I include all 3 mirrors and successfully update, the mod page still only shows a maximum of 2 mirrors.

 

Feel free to use my mod to test changes if you like. I documented the 3 mirror locations in the description.

 

Thanks,

I think I've fixed this but uh..I may not have. Coming down with a cold my girlfriend gave me so not quite thinking straight!

 

Could you let me know please?

Still bugged.

 

Here is what I observed:

 

Before I made changes:

 

Mirror #1 Name: Planet Elder Scrolls

Mirror #1 URL: http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View...ail&id=1998

 

Mirror #2 Name: File Front

Mirror #2 URL: http://files.filefront.com/lamps+of+oblivi...;/fileinfo.html

 

Mirror #3 Name:

Mirror #3 URL:

 

I added Elric back into slot #3 and submitted the changes. The site replaced Planet Elder Scrolls with Elric.

 

Now when I go back in to edit the mirrors, this is what is displayed:

 

Mirror #1 Name: Elric Melnibone

Mirror #1 URL: http://www.elricm.com/mods.php?mod=3609

 

Mirror #2 Name: File Front

Mirror #2 URL: http://files.filefront.com/lamps+of+oblivi...;/fileinfo.html

 

Mirror #3 Name:

Mirror #3 URL:

 

Now I test this theory that slot #3 will override slot #1 by placing Planet Elder Scroll in empty slot #3 and submit. I now get the following:

 

Mirror #1 Name: Planet Elder Scrolls

Mirror #1 URL: http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View...ail&id=1998

 

Mirror #2 Name: File Front

Mirror #2 URL: http://files.filefront.com/lamps+of+oblivi...;/fileinfo.html

 

Mirror #3 Name:

Mirror #3 URL:

 

I have found that simply leaving the mirror links alone and submitting (as if I only made changes to descriptions, I will only end up with Mirror #2 surviving the updates. I have confirmed this behavior.

 

Summary: Mirror Slot #3 overrides Mirror Slot #1

Okies, give it a go now!

It works!

 

It kept the 3rd mirror link and subsequent saves (without touching the mirrors) also retained the links. Case closed.

 

Thanks,
