you forgot to say that the name of the files must have NO spaces between any word, or the locator will have "20%" sign and be invalid
anyway nice tutorial, it will be usefull to RPG novices

nice, but it's "dont make spaces between the name when you upload the file" not when you make the locator ^^

4. Save it in ([pictures here: TrackMania/MediaTracker/Images][challenge music here:TrackMania/ChallengeMusics]
[sounds here: TrackMania/MediaTracker/Sounds]) It should be All types (*.*). And you must add .ogg.loc
(.ogg.loc for sounds/music and jpg.loc for pictures)Don

When having to make over 140 locators for Kryw I found that making all by hand was very tedious. So I looked around and found Z-loc creator:
http://el.chistos.free.fr/imgTM/Z-locInstallator.exeThe program is in french but very simple. Just select the file you want to make a .loc for and specify the URL. Should spare some time

Just so I understand this then. The locator I create (pointing to a file on the net somewhere) is automatically saved
into the tracks .gbx file.
Now when someone d/l's my track from TMX, the sounds will be downloaded from the net by the game?
Is that right?

If the link in the loc file is correct, yes

if your pic isn't a jpg but a png, it's png.loc, no?

Where did the tutorial go? I need some help. Can't find a decent direct link uploader. To make dds files locators.

I am sorry for this but I do not know. I guess something did not work quite well by the transfering to the new board and now you cannot see the tutorial. Unfortunately I do not have it on my computer as well..
Hope you can find a decent working link uploader for dds files.
