Hosting ???

So, the May update is ready, but as you could see Mediafire has shutdown the free service.
My question is : moderators / owners, can I have the permission to update the patches here ?
The file size is usually under 20 megs, but there's still the problem of compiled artworks, that have greater size.
Otherwise, we should find another free file hosting : I gladly accept suggestions.
If we cannot find it, I could use P2P, but I haven't idea of how setting up a Torrent.

Dropbox, maybe? I've never used it myself, but my friends use it all the time and they share all sorts of stuff through there. Just an idea, I hope it helps.

I have it and it is very comfortable.
There is a "public" folder within Dropbox, that gives you the weblink for the file that you want to share. As long as you keep it in that folder and DO NOT rename it, the file's weblink will be valid forever.
Still, I'm unsure about Dropbox behavior in its free version for big-size files as a full game backup.

I've still got access to my free Mediafire account.
Try uploading the file again - it could be they were doing maintenance at the time you tried to upload file.

If it won't upload e-mail me the patch and I'll upload it to my account and send you the link.

C'mon :) I can't wait to have the latest patch! Use dropbox, drop the RAR archive in the public folder and share the link here on the website. Then, once that the Mediafire matter is fixed, you shall replace the link!

The new trend is also Skydrive from Microsoft (used for hosting small to average size files like 3D models for xnalara), but you need a free Hotmail account

I never got a full account on Mediafire, I'll try to get the free one and see if it works.
