404s on downloading IPS files

I tried downloading a few hacks last night, but got 404's when trying to do so.  The hacks with 404 errors included:


- Revolution EX - http://www.metroidconstruction.com/IPS/Hacks//Hacks/RevolutionEX_[BloodSonic]_[uh].IPS
- Mockingbird Station - http://www.metroidconstruction.com/IPS/Hacks/MockingbirdStation_[Xaggoth]_v7[uh].IPS
- Cliffhanger (easy) - http://www.metroidconstruction.com/IPS/Hacks//Hacks/Cliffhanger_[Easy]_[DigitalMantra]_[h].IPS


Although I have not checked every download, there may be more 404s than this, as I only was looking at a few of the full hacks.  I was going to write a script to check the entire download list for invalid patch links so I could post a comprehensive list, but figured it'd be against site rules to do so.

Indeedy do. I get 404s as well, on both the old and beta sites' links.

hi!
Sorry I never got around to replying to the PM you sent me, however I've been rather afk so I've not had a chance to look up what exactly was going wrong there.
There seems to be a few borked links here and there, I'm gonna go ahead and see if I can't fix them up now. If you notice any more, post them in here and myself, or another qualified person, will tidy those up in due time.  :^_^:

Thank you; the links I mentioned have now been fixed!

Not a problem; I'll get onto it when I'm off work (if someone else doesn't first).
Quietus, I've not been able to get onto the broken links on the main site yet because I suck at Javascript; however I'll bug Dopey or ZeroOne and make them do it.  :wink:

Oops. It was my fault when updating the old site. James told me "don't touch it" since new site is coming. So I left errors there as it is.

Started to fix it instantly.

EDIT: Done!
