Any ‘look at my Discord chat’, ‘register on my site’, ‘go to my site to download’ and so on in releases will not be tolerated. This includes ‘early access for people registered/joined/…’ and similar.

Also, wherever possible, upload your resources to the forums’ file uploading system, unless they’re too big (i.e. they’re models/images/…).

Please can you add the download link on the forums. And also do not add a link that we need to register to get the download link. If everyone did that we would have a problem. If you need help with with good file sharing sites that you do not need to register. all you have to do is ask.

I still think it’s better to use Github rather than the forum itself.

So i need to zip up my files and reupload. Thought github was easier to see source code…

As @xander1998 said, does this mean no more github and just promotion below? Not any special treatment for those who want to join our Discord can?

Yeah I prefer GitHub, that way I can at least look at the code before downloading. I’m usually at work browsing the forum on my phone. :joy:

GitHub should still be fine, though uploading the latest version just below your GitHub link doesn’t take long and it saves time for people wanting to just straight download it.

You can also create releases on github, i don’t see any problem there

exactly that, it’s also useful to have release uploads archived in case, say, a user decides to remove a github repository

also note that said ‘wherever possible’

Ah. I honestly forgot about that on github. Im sorry if it sounded as i was being anmoying or disrespectful was generally curious if i needed to do that or not. I will go and add releases to my github repos and change the links. Just woke up so not feeling very good right now.

Thank You for posting this!

If you have a direct download link on your website (like if you post a link that immediately downloads your resource) is that allowed?

So you mean for example if http://faxes.zone/scripts/ had all direct downloads?

If we put the mod on gta5-mods for example can we link to it’s mod page? It’s much easier to maintain one link for a mod rather then having to update the link in several places where you post the most.

I get that it’s easier to keep files updated in one location, but if you’re posting about a release, you’re going to have to be active here to provide support, update the post when new features are released as well as providing a change log. So, while you’re at it, it shouldn’t take more than 2 seconds to drag a zip file from your computer into your post.

If you’re going to release something on another site and post about it here, but leave your topic here to die since the link doesn’t have to be updated, then I’d suggest don’t post about it in the first place. Though I don’t think this is what you meant.
