FFXI dats.com is closing down :(
If I had the time, patience and ability, I would happily re-make all these awesome yet lost dats we can no longer obtain. /sigh, maybe someday.
Thats too bad :<
I could probably host it, although don't know about bandwidth. If they gave the database and files. I'd renew the domain most def! Dont worry, dont threat! Im working with someone to resume work on the site. The .dat community will continue. Ill give more info when its done.
PS: Zenith doesnt want to do it anymore thats why. fo serious? cause I just downloaded 40mb worth of my favorite dats so when I come back i'll look good to me ; -;

PS: Zenith doesnt want to do it anymore thats why. We <3 you and your perseverance, along with everyone else who made that site what it was and the mod community strong. I greatly appreciate it. thanks hyshio, if yall need extra space to host some downloads look me up.
well i can attest to running a site for a long *** time and just not wanting to do it any more , if ya need any place to plop some files , lemme know ill set up a ftp account to my server.
Just curious if anyone that visits these forums might have an archive of previously collected user made dats they might be benevolent enough to upload for the community? <3
Mooooooooooooooshyyyyyyyyyy I <3 you!!! ![]() lol got bored and went to look for some mithra dancer dats... to my surprise it was gone =( Any idea where i can find some dats to play around with in the meantime?
This was supose to be the replacement site but however, the person heading the project jumped ship soo I really dont know where to find any.
http://ffmod.syndicatedlife.com/index.php?/index How much bandwidth do you think would be needed for this sort of site?
Hmm, about how much space and how many DAT files was on FFXIdats.com?
I could try re-hosting them on my website. The files were mostly less than 1MB, but I'm not sure how many there were, if I had to guess and ballpark it, maybe 500ish...?
I didn't go into the taru/hume/elvaan/mithra areas so maybe they had a lot more than galkas did, I could be off, less than 1000 files though I'm positive. That's not so bad. I'm barely using the space and bandwidth on my GoDaddy account, so I'm sure I can handle it.
I made a post on another thread similar to this one a whileback.
If my memory serves me right, a couple of the chaps from FFXIdats.com re-hosted a bunch of the files over at: http://thegoblintailor.forumotion.ca/ If a few people could team up with me to be admin/mods I could setup a site to host the dats, it would not be a custom site but would work well I think for this type of hosting. PM me if interested, I am looking for people that would help for at least a year. Once I have about 5 people I could get a site up in about a week.
When I say host, I mean actually putting the files on my host's server so they dont get lost on some free host. ![]() does anyone still have files for the Elemental Spirits that looked like sprites? Each sprite was designed for each element. Here is an example:
(photo not mine, i got a copy of it from screenshot section in this site) i registered on those other sites, after ffxidats.com closed but they don't share those files there. ![]() http://www.filefront.com/17239770/Avatars.rar
here you go~ there's a few different styles of elemental pixies in there, too e: i just uploaded it and it said it may take a while to activate, so if the link doesn't work just wait a bit i guess anyone who knows if there is gonna be or if there is another site like ffxidats out there. i have tons of dats if someone is looking for any specific, though i have only most for mithra but some for others.
I'm pretty sure ffximc.com still exists, it was smaller than ffxidats.com but it might become the new standard now that that site is gone.

I offered to make a site, no one has contacted me to help in maintaining such a site. i could do that, but im no pro or anything like that for programming or codings and that type of stuff =/
