G-Force “Extras”

[unimportantClosedBox]

I’ve notice that some posts on this forum reference a “contributors” page on the G-Force section of the Soundspectrum website, where you can download supplementary configs people have made over the years. None of the links seem to work, though. Is this a temporary outage, or are they inaccessible?

Hello unimportantClosedBox

The SoundSpectrum website is several years out of date due to Andy moving away from SoundSpectrum to start a new project:-

http://www.plan-systems.org

Fortunately for us G-Force enthusiasts he returned to SoundSpectrum in July this year and is working on some new and exciting features. I guess this should take priority over updating the website although it is very confusing for visitors.

To the best of my knowledge most if not all the contributors configs you refer to are way to old to be compatible with the recent versions of G-Force.

Do you have an archive of some of the configs on that page? I'm curious as to what the community had shared back then. As far as I remember that page was already down when I joined the forums which was like 2016-2018 I think.

Good news:

The Internet Archive has working copies of all of the extras dating as far back as 2004. Although some of the configs no longer work, most of them still function. Even old .map files can be converted into .png files without much difficulty; they're just RGB values.

is it the wayback machine?

[unimportantClosedBox]

Yes, it is.

Hello unimportantClosedBox

Great that you found them, I searched the same site as you without success before I made my above post. Are you able to provide a link so other users have the opportunity to obtain them?

Here's a link to a capture which includes all the extras (that I know of):
