The Dink Network

Okay, I've done a prototype zip for the new enemy graphics and it comes to over 3MB.

Graphics included are: Dragon (including new graphics used in magic attack - ie Dink spinning, earth spike), Frog-bot, Necro-bot, Skull of Insanity, Bug-eyed Kicker, Rabbit, Fire Demon, Red Lord (knight). I've included .ini files and the source for scripts, including dragon's magic attack. What is not included are the sounds that I used... my thoughts being this is really a graphics development file, and you can just copy the sounds from the DMOD. (Assuming you have it still)

But I thought I'd canvas some opinions:

Is 3MB too big a file? Should I just do a zip for each enemy to ease the download for those authors who just want, for example, only the dragon, or skull of insanity?

Should I include the sound files?

include everything, even the music
and no it's not toooo big, I've got broadband !!!

Anything over 7MB is too big for dialup users. Less than that is reasonable. Either way just upload it b/c it will be useful for some people who want to make a mod. Include sounds for better results.

At least it's better than someone on dialup downloading almost 40MB PQ.

If "FF Autoriz" had been accepted by WC/Redink, it would not be necessary to download 3 MB in a ZIP file. However, with a small FFA file of 12 KB it would be possible to extract the FastFile from the D-Mod (Pilgrim's Quest).

I use dial up, and for me anything above 5mb takes tooo long. 3mb seems okay though. And yes, include everything!
