UGX Map Manager Server out of Bandwidth!

Update: The server has been reset. The Map Manager should work now :)

It has been brought to my attention that the UGX Map Manager won't connect to our server. I checked the server status and it appears we've hit our monthly bandwidth cap of 2TB (2,000GB of data transferred in 28 days), which means the server is refusing connections.

Unfortunately there is nothing we can do at this time, and the server should reset for the next month on March 3rd 2013. If we were to upgrade our bandwidth it would double the cost of our monthly download server cost, $15 to $30. We are not prepared to increase costs at this time (Donations are welcome but will not help with long-term expense).

We apologize for the inconvenience, and we will provide further updates when we get them.

Just noticed that the UGX Map Manager has been used over 50,000 times. That's pretty damn impressive.

I hope the program is serving this community well. Dragging folders into your mods directory or using clunky packaged install exe's is a rather slow process that really needed to be streamlined.

It was our original intention when the program was developed in mid-2011 that programs like the UGX Map Manager should be the future of mod installation (and not just for CoD5).

The popular military simulation game ArmA 2 has a community-developed program called Play WithSix which has automated mod installation, updating, management, and server browsing for the many community mods currently being maintained. The program started under the name "SixUpdater" in mid-2012.

Steam has recently launched their "Steam Workshop" service which automatically displays available community-developed modifications and keeps them up to date for you.

I believe that these types of services are the future of game modifications, and I am proud to be able to say that UGX was on the forefront of this revolution.

I would like to personally thank the community for their support and I hope to keep the UGX Map Manager up and running for as long as possible.

UGX Donations Full Disclosure

There's always been annoying speculation and accusation directed at me about where the donation money actually goes and what it pays for, and some people are actually accusing me of somehow making profit from creating CoD maps and accepting donations. First of all, here's the dictionary definition of the word donation:



Donations are purely voluntary, so unless I come to your house and force you to click the donate button, the money donated is purely in good will and not profit-related.

In addition, this site isn't some magically free entity that runs itself. Currently the 2012-2013 server costs are:
$80 for Awardspace shared hosting (before we switched to VPS in 9/2012)
$120 for VPS hosting from Linode.com
$120 for Box.com download hosting (for UGX Map Manager)
$10 for the http://ugx-mods.com domain rights.
+My time and dedication in site maintenance and creation

So in total I've spent $330+ since the beginning of 2012 (not going to bother looking up 2011), out of my own pocket, to host this website and to power the development of UGX content. Don't take this the wrong way - I'm not complaining about having to pay for it or trying to earn any sympathy. This was obviously my own choice and if I didn't want to do it I would've stopped paying for it a long time ago or started begging for donations to keep the site online another year.

I'm simply trying to make this point: UGX only received $138 in PayPal donations after the Comosea WIP thread was first posted up until the date of this post, which I can prove with PayPal statements. I then transferred that money to my checking account to help offset the cost of the fees I've mentioned above, which is the clearly stated purpose of donations.



$330 - $138 = $192. That's $192 out of my checkin...
