Maybe I'm missing something or just plain stupid,but how does one download fan missions from the South Quarter website?:confused:

(
http://www.southquarter.com/2009/08/26/site-update/) Read here. You can find links to the missions in their respective TTLG threads.
It wasn't my idea, but I do understand the need of change - people didn't really write reviews anymore and everyone went back to using thiefmissions as thier primary mission repository. SQ was becoming pointless. A good example is that it took over two weeks for anyone to notice that the links are gone.

Hosting missions (and Emil's journal, etc.) is not pointless, but I can see how disappointing the lack of traffic would be.:erg:

So there's no more place for T3 fan missions? Quite sad thing... :erg:
If you will tell me that's not true, then I will register myself.

Southquarter was never really an FM hosting site - we just took that role temporarily while Jason at thiefmissions was on hiatus. Now that he's back, there's no need.
The site was always meant for FM reviews, which are still there, but fan missions for other games are allowed now too.
Mass: yes, T3 mission reviews are allowed, it's just that no one has written one yet!

For what it's worth, I favoured South Quarter over thiefmissions. The reviews and especially the interviews with FM creators are a feature worth keeping alive!

SneakyJack hasn't been doing the interviews lately, so that gap could be filled, and there are so many great and/or unique authors that it wouldn't be hard to coordinate to prevent overlap. I wonder, too, if there are interviews that are now old enough to have another interview with the same author, as a sort of retrospective, and a look at how the author has grown, along with the advancements in FM building and tools.

Hmmmm, Then why the reviews are under the File section? That's not a good idea. I suggest you then to change the "File" with "Reviews".
As soon as I can I will register myself, because I always liked alot that site, above all for that neat layout, and also for all that linking stuffs to the various facebook, digging etc., and because, of course, it talks specific about the great world of the fan missions. I would have alot to write for.

Mass;I know what you mean with posting "Reviews"under the "Files" link.I guess thats what threw me in the first place.
This probably belongs on a new thread but I also have noticed that "The Circle" hasn`t posted any new FM's since January 09.I was told that they had problems with a server crash or something,and that it would take time to get things up and running.Is anything happening over there ,or can we say goodbye to the circle as far as new FM's are concerned? Was my all time favorite download portal.
