But you can't upgrade an existing account? Pity.
Anyway, if somebody has a third-person upgrade to give away, I'd be interested.

This would be handy for me if they'll host 500-600Mb planet texture zips

The max file-size on the Box free personal account is only 250MB, and the monthly bandwidth is only 10GB.submersible wrote:This would be handy for me if they'll host 500-600Mb planet texture zips

Yes, that makes a 50GB account a bit useless. It takes 5 months to download everything from it.El Viejo wrote:The max file-size on the Box free personal account is only 250MB, and the monthly bandwidth is only 10GB.

I have a 50GB account from a previous offer, but ran into my monthly bandwidth of only 10GB last january.

So, for private files maybe nice, but not for hosting files for Oolite were the monthly bandwidth is the bottleneck.

I'm going to refrain from my normal rant at this point.
100gb webspace, unlimited bandwidth, free, friendly staff...

Re: 50 Gb box accounts available
I've just noticed that my Box account monthly bandwidth hasn't reset - anyone else see the same?

Re: 50 Gb box accounts available
Mine's currently sat at 6%, so I'd say it reset last week.

Re: 50 Gb box accounts available
Mine's on 3%, so looks like it reset fine.
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied

Re: 50 Gb box accounts available
10% already after 4 days. At least won't this month have 40 days, so i'll manage till the end. But who needs 50 GB. It now says: "Storage: 107.2MB used of 50.0GB".
So with just 0.2% of that 50.0GB I already hit my limit.![Mr. Green :mrgreen:](./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)

Re: 50 Gb box accounts available
Hmm... only me, then. I'll give it a few days, then email Box, I suppose.
Not that I'm likely to hit my bandwidth limit, even though it's at 28% (mostly from last month).
