Hmmm... So what did the index link to? It definitely went somewhere or I wouldn't have had it bookmarked. :lol:

I believe the link you are providing is incorrect. It has never done that (just verified with another backup). The link you are providing is the main page to HMW. It wouldn't make any sense to have a thousand images load on the first page of HMW.

The link you are providing is incorrect. There is most likely a different page that does what you are requesting. If someone else has it bookmarked, that would be great.

I had it bookmarked, also, but my link is also redirecting me to the main page now :-? I'm not sure... Going to check my laptop to see if I have a saved caption of it. I thought I did, though I can't remember why. Will update this post if I find something.

EDIT: Nope. Couldn't find it :(

Can you edit your bookmark to see what the actual URL is that you had bookmarked? It's not /index.php. It should be a different filename. Maybe that file is missing or something and it is now redirecting to /index.php. Or maybe there's some code in the original file that you guys had bookmarked that is redirecting it to /index.php.

While I am learning about HMW, there is one thing I am 100% certain of ... the main HMW page has never had a thousand images loading on it at one time. I would not have allowed that to happen, and I have at least 4 different versions of the /index.php page going back to 2012 that also show that there were never a pile of alt mode images displaying on the main page.

If it wasn't this "images" page the address was something close.
It used to easy to get to in the days before the alt mode loophole was shut, you just edited down the link you'd use for it.
If I get a chance later when I'm at a computer I'll search around and see if I can find it.

What Bun said. My link is: http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/images/

However, when this is clicked, the url reads: https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/index.php

The link simply redirects, though I'm unsure why.

Found it.

Edit: to clarify, we're not saying the main page had these images, only that this link used to and is now redirecting to it (as you can see above). My original question was to ask about the location of this page to help us go through the alt updating process. :)


Edit edit: just checked back over my original post, and that was my bad, /heavymetalwar/images was the file I meant to ask about but must have cut/pasted wrong on my phone and not realised.

I can rebuild that functionality. It indeed was not at the main index page. What's odd though is it's not in my backup either at the location archived at that link. However, I would like to create a much better version of that page instead of just a page that displays all of the images, which is a lot of requests to the server at one time. Something for my to-do list.

That page was not setup like that. Just verified it with a backed up file from April 2018 and one from March 2012.

However, there is a page that does what I think you are talking about at https://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/Complete_altmodes.php

though I'm unsure how people are supposed to get to that page. If you can let me know how people are supposed to get to that page, I can verify that the links are programmed correctly.

that looks awesome

In the last box it says medium vehicle instead of gadget unless a toaster is a medium vehicle for cons.

I've just gone through and deactivated a couple of missions in the hopes of pushing out the 3-7 Wabbit mission more often.

This may result in some funny results. I do apologise for that.
