For some odd reason or other, the 3DFA site is back up!

Let's hope it stays there this time... and that we get updates (I hope). And I'd be surprised if this scare was given to us by a mf'ing hacker......

When this whole episode began, I did a WHOIS search for 3DFA.COM. It was still registered to "Rob" but the DNS appeared to be changed to WINSAVE.COM's. This would either had to be done by Rob or the original DNS was bought out. If it is Rob, I sure hope that means he is going to continue the software. I've tried all the others people have suggested and they all fall short.

I've just been informed that the site was down and is now back up - direct from "support". Having cleared my web cache this morning and reloaded the page, hey-presto, it's working. Let's hope this continues.

Yep! support@3dfa.com
What the ####### hell?????
They WHAT??????????????????
This is just wierd. The support address has been nothing but s### to us for months! AND NOW THIS!!!
Of course, I haven't e-mailed anything to them recently, but from other people's reactions here...
WHAT THE #### IS GOING ON!? That's what I would like to know!!!
kinda funny that someone with two whole posts gets a response from support while those of us that have been screaming to support for just an acknowledment that the software is still alive are ignored....
Bret, kinda what I was thinking, sent another email this morning hoping for a response..............
No reply yet, will let everyone know if I hear something.

The 3dfa site was up for some days and now down again????? Whatīs going on? I asked for a new regnumber since i am goin to change computer. No response and itīs 3 weeks ago... itīs sad to say but i think that 3dfa is no longer an alternative...... Is there maby someone who has some kind of patch/crack for the 3dfa..... so i can use it untill i have desired wich program i am going to change to...
itīs sad that this program with so many features and so easy to use is out of business....or is it?????????
It's up as far as I can see, but I may have a cahced page...........
I've been trying toi get a new number for over a month now, no reply, sent several emails to support as well, nothing............
Odd that they answer someone elses email, I wonder if you sent in a buy request, if they would reply. Even though I'd feel a bit cheated, I'd rather pay for 3dfa again than have to re-learn an entire other program.
I've been doing the trials on several right now, and really can't get a good feel for them, even though koolmoves seems to be the best alternative, I'm just not as comfortable with it..................

thats why i was asking you people if i should post a hacking way for 3DFA making in FREE ! , but you guys never gave me an answere ...
check the poll results
that should tell ya something
well that was BEFORE the site went back online and i was askind if the subject is still relevant ,but ok have it your way :
just change the date at the pc's clock to before you installed 3DFA and thats it
You call that a hack?
Btw, see my post at this topic:rolleyes:
well um ... no , but its the only thing that does the trick ,besides unlike you i ASKED people if they allow me to violate 3DFA's copyrights
Just to fill everyone in on what happened to the web site when it went down...I recently only found out myself.
The ISP hosting the 3DFA web site upgraded the server in which the pages resided on but not everything went according to plan and this resulted in the site being unavailable at times. All is now back on track.
Please also note that the support email has changed and may do so from time to time. It will be best to use the link on the support page of the 3DFA web site when sending an email for help/support.
