Try this link: http://warp_nine.tripod.com/

Re: A Borg Collective style completed
 

Well, this is interesting: I tried the link, and two windows popped up! One had the page we're looking for (SE4 stuff), and the other had a message "requested URL could not be loaded" (or something like that). Could it be that Tripod has added an annoying ad window that isn't working properly? And that's what everyone is having trouble getting past?

Re: A Borg Collective style completed
 

Thank you Daynarr but again no success. I got the following message with the adress you posted:
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://warp_nine.tripod.com/

The following error was encountered:

Invalid URL
Some aspect of the requested URL is incorrect. Possible problems:

Missing or incorrect access protocol (should be `http://'' or similar)
Missing hostname
Illegal double-escape in the URL-Path
Illegal character in hostname; underscores are not allowed

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Any more halp will be appreciated.

Very strange, I can get in with no problems at all. Are you behind a firewall that might be miss-interpretting the address? I'm not even sure if that question makes sense, but something other than the URL or IE5 is causing you a problem.

Id get the shipsets and all, but I dont want to replace any of my existing empires
Ill have to spend a long session of renaming files...

Re: A Borg Collective style completed
 

Have same problem as Raynor accessing the warp-nine site. I second his suggestion...

Re: A Borg Collective style completed
 

Cripes! Now I hate tripod! I used it for the short url. Any other suggestions?

I'll try uploading to the mod section, but give me a day or two to reorganize, rename, redocument, etc. first.

Does anyone know how to write a dos .bat file that can rename these files quickly in the format we need?
