Possibility of uploading Mod DB release of nosteam version to GitHub

Open rea987 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Hi,

I play the mod via Luxtorpeda tool on Linux natively. The tool automates downloading and installing Linux version of games which aren't provided in Steam.

As Steam release of RealRTCW isn't compatible with nosteam version, data from Mod DB release is required. However, links provided by Mod DB are dynamics links which expire shortly after download, hence Luxtorpeda package of RealRTCW asks users to manually provide Mod DB version by themselves. In that case, would you mind uploading Mod DB release of nosteam version here in releases section on GitHub? Thank you!

Kind regards.

You need some alternative links for moddb content,right?

Yes, exactly. Something static would be great.

Yes, github releases may work for this, as you can upload artifacts to them. Having a download source like that will make it easier to automate downloading the mod for use with luxtorpeda.
