So, I've been gone for a few years, and when I recently decided to return I was delighted to discover that the old Creature Labs downloads had been made free to the public, however, the Creature Labs site run by Gameware seems to be nothing but a corpse at this point. Is there a way to get a hold of all of those official downloads that used to be offered by the Creatures Mall?

Thanks for your help!

From a News post on the subject:

Gameware has now migrated from their .co.uk domain to .com - but the official download URLs have been left pointing to .co.uk instead of to their new .com home.

To download from Gameware's website, copy the download URL into a new screen and replace .co.uk with .com.



And in case you were also wondering - there's currently no way to get a hold of the official breed packs unless you bought them before the Mall went down. Everyone and their grandmother has been wondering about those.

Seriously? Has Gameware indicated whether or not these will be made available again?

They haven't, hence the wondering. Chances don't look great though. :(

Does anyone know if Gameware would be ok with people posting the official breed packs for download on the internet, since they're not excactly trying to make money out of them? I have few of them somewhere in my archives.

Resistance is futile.

You could always ask Gameware. :)

There is currently a petition to get the breed packs available on GOG.com, and I know Fishing Cactus have been asked if the breed packs will be part of their C4 box set (including all previous games for modern versions of Windows).

I think the general consensus from Gameware is 'feel free to share them amongst yourselves, but please don't put them up for download.'

I went so far as to send messages to both of those e-mail addresses, Malkin, and they both came back as undeliverable mail. Not sure if I want to actually call or send something via the post! Ha ha! Hopefully the breed packs will be made available for everyone at some point. It's maddening to have them just out of grasp!

Wow, that's really disappointing, that the listed emails don't work any more. :(

Yes, I sent messages to both of the addresses on the Gameware website earlier and got the same thing. That's actually why I started this thread.

I would really like to get those packs if that's the consensus, but it looks like it's against the rules of this forum to ask someone to share. Is that still against the rules at this point mods?

I appreciate everyone's help on this. I would have called the number too, but as I'm a fair distance from Gameware I'm not really able to do so.

Such a request should take place via PM or e-mail, thanks.

So if sharing them is OK, please feel free to pm me if you want them. I think i only have Banshee grendels and Bondi norns, but i can't be sure what lurks in my extremely unorganised archives.

EDIT: And i also remembered that i have Treehuggers as well.

Indicating that you are willing to share such-and-such a breed should take place via PM or email, thank you.

Keep and eye on Fishing Cactus and BigBen to see what might happen on the subject, but on the unofficial level, provided nothing is posted online, you can discuss this with people who already have the breeds via email or on CC Chat.
