Seeing as most people are staying away from FreeBuild until its done, Warman, of TDM Fortress fame, has released The Orange Block 2.0 packaged for new users to enjoy in the meantime.
Get it here, nao.
This is, at the time of writing, the most current version of The Orange Block, a large mod for the original TBM.
Found this while just surfing around
http://tbm.pcloadletterwtf.com/download.html
The downloads seem to work

This is about TOB, the mod for TBM by DShiznit, which added large amounts of functionality.
Dndnerdboy set up some temporary forums at
http://thebettermod.webs.com for TOB stuff, since Cemetech is mostly about Freebuild status. I think we can upload a copy of TOB 2.0 there too.

Hey, don't try to pin this on me, Wiggy and Grey helped a lot, not to mention the backs of all the previous devs I built on...

Yeah, except you modeled and codded pretty much everything...
Oh and I used a lot of Feedback's stuff too.
Oh yeah, that's true. Your coding and Feedback's models pretty much made TOB into what we use today.
Topic pinned for you TOB guys to keep us posted on updates. At some point I'd love to see a comprehensive feature list of The Orange Block and talk about beginning a port to FreeBuild.
theorangeblock.org is down,

Tried to install Joomla! 1.6, but it failed, don't have the time ATM to fix it so the forums and website are down. put /ftp at the end of the URL to access the
FTP. seems lucas screwed up
I think we're up to 2.2 now, or getting close to it. I'm not as active in development as I used to be because I'm focusing on some other projects of mine, but wiggy, lucas, and elrune are very capable. I just wish they'd watch datablock usage a tad more closely, I think we have like 4 left, and I made sure in my last release to leave at least 10 or 12 so that Luqado's computer map could be loaded.
That reminds me of what Avast 5 found inside dl.dll
Explanation please?
Err, ToB is being packaged with malware? That's terrible, that gives me yet another reason not to use it.
dl.dll is
GNU Wget 1.5.3.1, a non-interactive network retriever.
Usage: dl [OPTION]... [URL]...
downloads files off internet, even shows you what its downloading..
the bat launcher uses it to update the news.txt file by redownloading it from the ftp
Surely there's a better way to download files off the internet besides packaging all of wget inside. wget has a ton of functionality that you'll never use; a bit of socket work would be much smaller and better, in my opinion.
wget is what we have right now, I dont know if anyone really knows "socket work"
that wget from TOB is the first time ive used it, 2nd time is the mod downloader (wget usage) for Burning Sand 2 (sand falling game)

Because we all enjoy re-inventing the wheel, right? libcurl is a good library, though if you're aiming at Windows-only you may as well use the HTTP stuff provided by the OS.
I think the most up-to-date version actually reworked the news system to use torque's own internal http commands, so dl.dll is needless. Someone confirm this.

That is correct. Also, I didn't "screw" up. Apparently the Joomla team didn't make upgrading very easy.
