Anyone have TLR Forum DB?

[Chips]

Just wondering if anyone has a sql dump of the old forums back from wayyyy back when - or where to get hold of them.

Fancy getting all the tutorials and help threads out of the old forum db if anyone can point in the right direction

Shouldn’t take that long if I can get access to the sql dump for it - maybe an hour or two
(depends upon the file size naturally, if it’s a few GB… then, erm, well - no idea if I can even open it

Work is being done by multiple individuals to restore information out of the TLR forum sql database.

I myself dont have the db however.

aww sheeet!

;D

Have access to the tools for it, but sod it if it’s that big. Just got bored of waiting upon it tbh.

Is that everything, or just the forums? How the hell did it get to that size if just the forums, there wasn’t that much stuff in there

BP used to tell me about the size, but I always got the impression it included the news and downloads comments, which naturally got vast quantities of porn spam (each one thousands of characters in length, and in extreme cases about 20-30 per item at times!) which inflated it.

Chips, I believe you have a complete post in the old TLR database about quaternions, I will make it a point to send u a link if I run across it.

hehe, yup - okay, exams done - just having to finish off a piece of coursework to do with a game (it’s made in blender, part of the course - worst module in the universe, should have done data mining… stupid stupid error lured in by stupid idea that it may actually be useful or interesting. Most boring ill thought of module in the world. I’d rather do C++ programming and learn about how game engines work etc than do bloody Blender game ideas… ill conceived module of uselessness - will study data mining and all the associated math in my own time - oops, waffle :D)
