The great ClassicWB preinstalled packs have been removed from Bloodwych's site.

http://classicwb.abime.net/



ALL PACKS ARE OFFLINE DUE TO LEGALLITY ISSUES



WITH FILES UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE



Someone on EAB reported that his packs contain some kickstart roms in the WHDLoad installation that is included with each pack, and as his site is hosted on the EAB servers he had to abide by their rules and remove the downloads asap.

Bloodwych's announcement can be seen here (http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=38221) and the reporting of his packs can be found here (http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=24853&p=435739).

Yep. The packs will be available shortly for trusted members (hope you get my gist!) ;)

Yes, it was only a matter of time. :lol:

This will get sorted again for public release and thanks to Harrison other avenues will be made available to trusted members who I know have the required files in question already, perhaps even more up-to-date options until I've had a chance to re-wright the install routines for general release! :)

That must of been really annoying, I hope it does get sorted for public release, as I quite like ClassicWB a lot.

Thanks woody.cool. :wave:

It will definitely be back. I already have beta packs with the files in question absent!

Is there going to be a KS 2.0 version (ClassicWB GAAE)? and what about a 3.5 or 3.9 based ClassicWB?

All previous versions will return (including the Workbench 2 GAAE tribute to Paul) and the 3.9 version is more or less complete, but lacks an install routine at the moment and I need to get backwards compatibility so people can use it with 3.5.

Cool, looking forward to it already.
