    help! I lost my old hard to find terrains :(

    Recently I have lost all of my files for Warbirds 2.77r3
    during a reformat..and *thought* I had them all backed up..
    aparently not. :(

    Now I am in search for all the OLD terrain maps I have lost..
    and it seems you can't even find some of them anymore!
    example, phhaw.trn = pearl harbor hawaii terrain map ...

    Is this terrain gone forever? cuz i can't seem to find it anywhere.

    can someone please post some public ftp links so people can still
    get the older files we need..?

    Thanks.

    Unfortunately ftp://lists.ient.com aren't responding.

    You can try download maps from Web Archive http://web.archive.org/web/20030707034555/http://www.totalsims.com/wbdownloads.php

    If you be unable, you can find correct arena names from http://www.martin-struwe.de/wiki/index.php/Download or http://www.fscwv.edu/users/rheffner/overlays/wbmap.html and download maps from http://files.warbirdsiii.com adding the necessary name after last slash in the following style:
    AWT map: http://files.warbirdsiii.com/WarBirds/terrain/win95/wbawt3.exe
    ETO map: http://files.warbirdsiii.com/WarBirds/terrain/win95/wbeto1.exe

    Sorry but I didn't find the index page with correct links to all wb maps, except Web Archive page.

    Thanks Guys! :)

    Someone should pin up those links (or) include/add those terrain links
    under the Terrains download section on page :
    http://www.wbfree.net/download.php

    So others can download & play those *older* maps not listed
    there without looking all over the net for something very hard to locate..

    cheers :D
