Missions in Depot (& Review) not latest version

[Walter_E_Kurtz]

Sometimes a link from the Missions Depot (and the corresponding Review) are to a version that was superceded according to the beta thread. For instance:

OFP: Eviction by Schuler
Link on Review page is Eviction1.zip - despite the title being "Eviction (1.4)" !
In the Review Completed section, Eviction v1.4.zip was available around the time the review was written.

OFP: A Touch of Frost by ACF
Review page: A_Touch_of_Frost_v1.1.zip
Thread: ACF_A_Touch_of_Frost_v1-11.zip


What's the best way of bringing this to the attention of the powers that be?

Hey dude, chill man, how more positve can I get than OPFEC rocks huh? You tell me dude!

An OFPEC really does rock, cant say fairer than that!!

OFPEC ROCKS! OFPEC ROCKS! OFPEC ROCKS! OFPEC ROCKS! OFPEC ROCKS!

An you better get of that high horse cuz your looking pretty amature right now let me tell ya. You dont even know that you aint supposed to quote the post previous to yours. h- got in touch with me an told me about the guidelines and thats in there just you check it out.

These guys are hard core special ops in the community and they know there stuff like mando and wolf. Dunno why they letting someone like you that types all,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and shit on there staff, dont even know you got an addons departmnt dont even know your own rules.

Now pay some respect and back on topic dude.

I think both of you gents had best take this to PM and stop spamming threads.

Thank you once again for not only spotting those errors Walter but for taking the time to notifying us. Both files have been updated and now offer the latest versions according to their beta threads. If you discover any more, feel free to update this thread sir.

Slightly different issue this time. I've been trawling through the old pages of the Beta Testing / Submission thread, looking for working links. I've found a couple where it's possible to download the last version of a mission and which don't have reviews. They are six years old, however.

Would it make sense to revivify these threads?

Thank you again for the heads up in this area Walter. We apologize for any inconvenience that it has caused and would like to inform all of you that the depot has been under the scope lately. We are about to begin reworking that area to clean up our space a bit and provide a better browsing area for our active members. Thank you for your patience in this matter.
