Found these in 1 of my downloads folders, and I'm not sure where I got them from originally, but they look really tight so thought I'd share them.

The site is still there, but the downloads don't work anymore.

But they're available · https://unreal-games.livejournal.com/126634.html

Played a few matches against them. I think Stealth is my favorite of the pack. 8)

Awesome but sad the downloads are broken. Do you happen to know if good old NaliCity with map reviews is still "working" the same as I miss that too.

I will download the skins you host a link for as the one I got from elsewhere is bugged, maybe I will see it as a witer project to put them online again in a new version.

It isn't but the remnants of it can be found at Beyond Unreal https://nalicity.beyondunreal.com/.

yes I know I still have the old bookmark but the problem is the same as skincity because it is both running at beyondunreal and missing the files and proberbly also the database is down? I was wondering if anyone had the files for ut99 hosted from that site as the skincity backup? The maps there where awesome and it is much easier to find good maps instead of the filedumps that are online at present day who host everything not judging if it is even worth preserving and also same maps under a million different names, a total mess in a chaotic way at best.

110, I think. That is usually where I have it.

The SkinCity and NaliCity archives are available at the Internet Archive - search for AtomicGamer_BeyondUnreal - the SkinCIty files are in .tar No 4 and the Nalicity files are in .tar No 2. I posted the links to at least one of those on this forum not long ago - can't remember which thread it was now - could search this forum for it - I think it was in a thead where someone asked if the archives Carbon posted were still available.

This is the link to the AtomicGamer BU backup https://archive.org/details/atomicgamer ... yondunreal

Not to derail the thread further (excellent find BTW @EvilGrins) but I miss also Skin City because all submissions had screenshots, so you could tell right away which skins you wanted to download & install.

1. No idea if anyone ever did similar with Nali City.

2. I was originally going to categorize the skins/models in the .zip (into different directories) as they're all basically in 1 directory, and they comprise skins & models for UT, UT3, & UT2004... but life gets hectic sometimes.

Skin City's site is still up, so you can still see them. And if you have the downloads, you can usually match pics you which files they're from.

Also, a lot of the compressed files have pics in them.
