FileFront, or as it is now called GameFront is actually closing down at the end of the month. Grab the files while you still can.

Not surprising, they're owned by the same company as the Escapist: http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?threads/the-escapist-is-fucked.107896/
I honestly forgot this existed.

Been around 20 years (previously known as Fileleech and Filefront), was my go-to site for patches\mods for a while. It's been used as a mirror by other mod sites as well.

I was occasionally reminded it was still a thing when downloading shit through a mirror creator link (the gamefront links never worked)

I remember several mods I could only get from filefront.
Yeah, some stuff will get lost here.

Filefront used to be affiliated with ModDB.
I think I uploaded something there one time as well.

Bazilion mods for Dawn of War or CoH, dozen Stalker mods... and UT. All that abandoned by their creators long time ago. Hard to find anything now, and couldn't download anything form here since 2012?
All that before everyone went to moddb.
Wonder how Fileplanet is living.

What's more important, the data or the jazz?
The data is 1's and 0's. Life is the jazz.
It appears to have been frozen in its 2012 state.
EDIT: with a lot of missing and inaccessible data.

Another mod webpage acquired old corpse.
There were some mods that I wanted to test, maybe it's time?
Nah, about decade too late.
