What are you talking about? Those asr_owc links are all direct link to your Mediafire links. Your own links that you have in your Mediafire account.
If some others aren't, they can be easily replaced just like I replaced the links to your Patreon by your request with the 1998 tracks. Some might have been just updated with Thockard's improved ai (which actually improved the tracks tremendously). If there is some conflict, it's easily fixable.
Edit: All those few asr_owc's are now fixed directly to your Mediafire instead of my Mediafire.
Why this public tantrum? You could have sent me a PM and we could have sorted this out.
Your FN Bahrain had an ai issue because you used an outdated version as a base. I fixed the .ini files and the layouts won't work without the base fn_bahrain file. Most people could never, ever set those up themselves properly. It's hard enough for them to extract track skins properly. Most people who download these seasons outside of use "HC guys" can barely make a toast. Do you except them to make those fn bahrain layouts to work and make the proper changes to ini files? Nope. Everything in your layouts are completely untouched. So what is the problem with having the full track available for easier installation for the end user? You might make a few bucks with your Patreon which is great. But I make ZERO with anything. All I care about is playing those classic F1 seasons.
Do we care that people get the best gaming experience or something else, huh? The track ai's are superior in the 1998 circuits. I can easily fix those few mentioned links with your Patreon links and make only the skins available. And yes, 1998 Melbourne pit exit is wrong for the newer years but the layout is correct and the track ai is absolutely superior to any other version. Yes, that is a praise to your track and people love it.
The 1998 season has probably thousands of downloads. The champs files have 11K downloads already. The initial video has 12K views and the updated one has 3K views. They will create a lot of traffic to your Patreon. And that season is so good because of your (and Thockards superb work). Why can't we be happy that people love it... outside this forum and this relatively small community where those vintage tracks and seasons are just "niche stuff" for very few enthusisasts?
I really don't care about any drama queen stuff. All communities are ruined because of this kind of useless arguments. Especially when these are easily fixable. And I truly appreciate your work and I'm willing to sort this out the way you want. I will change the 2005 and 2007 downloads to separate skins and those few track links go directly to your Patreon. Here, problem sorted and no drama is necessary. Right?
Edit: Fixing them one by one. 1990, 1991 and 1993 already fixed. Imho it was completely unnecessary to make this public. I have hundreds of track links and some have been accidentally left there because maintaining those seasons take so much time. I will fix the rest as soon as my work schedule permits it and/or replace your tracks with something else.
