Alright, a small 3rd Batch went out today.

So right now, I have no Addresses remaining to send anything to.
If you still haven't received anything ~14 days after I sent out the corresponding Batch, feel free to raise your hand.
(but so far, DHL Services never failed to deliver, so any delay is typically just that - a delay in Shipping)

Small update :

I've been notified that the 3dfx Archive on DVD still links all Download-Files to the online Server.
All 3 Batches that were sent out are affected, meaning when navigating to a File, you could only see the Filename (mouseover) but would have to manually grab it via a File Explorer to access it.

This has been fixed (at least for Windows Platforms, unsure about Linux/Mac due to Directory/File conventions) and I've released a tiny Patch to address this issue and updated the Main Posting.

Just a small but important Detail for anyone that already has or plans to build a functional Mirror of the 3dfx Archive :

Please be to kind to remove the following .htm Files from any live Mirror :
- impressum.htm (my Postal Address)
- contact.htm (my EMail Address)
- disclaimer.htm (an old - by now redundant requirement - of German telecommunication laws)

If those were to be maintained , I'd still be repeatedly contacted on 3dfx matters, worst-case when I'm since long in the retirement home already xD

Plus, I naturally take absolutely responsibility for any of the setup Mirrors, thus neither my postal Address or my EMail address shall be part of such Mirrors. Those Mirrors will be none of my business.
Feel free to admend/change the contact Information to reflect the actual Operator of the respective Mirror instead - or use blank pages (just to avoid 404 errors).

Should I find online Mirrors after Jul 2017 containing my Contact Info, I'd have to intervene due to legal and privacy reasons.
So please make sure these are removed or blanked with placeholder/empty content if you intend to run a live Mirror Smiley
