The DataBase (OR TDB): What's that?
Ladies and gentlemen,
Many time I was asked the same question about something that's ALWAYS in my lips: The famous TDB.
Question is: "What's TDB?".
TDB stand for "The DataBase" and it's nothing more than a 110GB Hard disk full with Unreal series stuff (Unreal, UT99, UT2003, Unreal 2, UT2004 and UT3-coming soon) that I gathered with my clan mates.
It mostly contains unfinished stuff, or in beta testing, but all this content has been hidden from the community for far too long, and I'm willing to share it with you all here.
TDB was also a private chat for my SonsOfWar, and my computer was the host, as I was the holder of the physical TDB, but all this went offline two years ago.
In few words, WHAT does TDB contain?
It contains pretty rare files (some mroe, some less) and most common ones too, but also (and here's the most important) files ONLY I have, such as:
-Custom made unpublished skins;
-Custom made unpublished maps;
-Custom made unpublished songs;
-Custom made unfinished skins;
-Custom made unfinished maps;
-Custom made unfinished models;
-Various versions of the Unreal series games such as UT Confidential beta, Botpack 220, UTX-Build (Unreal Championship Alpha), Unreal Tournament 2 (Yes, Unreal Tournament TWO) beta etc.
-Various projects just barely started.
But that's just a little part of what does TDB has.
"Dear DeathMask SonsOfWar, why the hell did you wait 13 years to publish unpublished stuff?" (I was actually asked this question)
Mostly because the majority isn't complete yet, or presents some imperfections. I like to publish my files in as most good conditions as possible (Skins, models, maps, songs, mods etc.), and of all the files I made, I published something like the 2%, and the whole thing is hard to find around.
"What do you hope to accomplish with the publication of TDB?"
Another question I was asked.
Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I don't aim to the fame, I don't aim to the glory. All I want to do is to share my files with the world, else I'd have had no reason in making them.
Some might ask: Why here?
I was invited here from Hook, and I know he's a good guy so I accepted. I also know this place is pretty active and populated, so I guess this is a good start to make TDB known.
When will you start posting some files? (Another question I might be asked)
Soon. I will start publishing stuff soon. I will start with finished projects, and I'll ask for help from the community for the unfinished ones. If I'll publish it here? Yes, if there's the chance. Otherwise, I'll publish them elsewhere and C/P the link here. In other words, when I'll publish stuff, you'll know it.
I think that's all I have to say. I hope you'll enjoy using the files from TDB as well as I enjoyed building it with my clan mates.

.tdb is also the extension ThumbsPlus uses to store information on all the images on my hard drive...
...and, if you're wondering what Thumbs is:

LOL
Here we will talk about my TDB, not the .tdb extension. On this topic, TDEB is officially "The DataBase", and it will (at least I hope) be helpful for the community (I hope at least for some)

TDB offline due to maintenance (installment of its new permanent base plus software upgrading). It will be back online in few days.
