What's going on with Sim File Share?

This was 18 hours ago... no word since. Yeah, I picked a very bad time to do a CC purge and all new CC shopping spree plan.

@femmedeluxe13 you can work around that problem as explained in THIS post on tumblr.

Including the picture from that post above to make it easier for people here to see how to fix it but wanted to give full credit.

Basically remove the cdn from the line and hit enter and the box to download it will pop up immediately.

SFS has been having server issues for a week or more.
It often works if you refresh the page (a couple of times), and navigate to the URL https://simfileshare.net instead of https://www.simfileshare.net
I hope that helps.

Unfortunately, that didn't work. Now it said that simfileshare refused to connect.

interesting cause i download a cc from file share and it worked for just fine for me.

it's not a problem. The cc creators are re uploading their stuff on different servers.

Thank goodness. I just finished building my new pc and went to download all my old cc (because my backup file apparently needed a back up and didn't work right) but couldn't get SFS to work. Glad to know its not gone!

The active ones. :/

On their Tumblr they said that the planned maintenance is taking longer than expected and that the site will most likely be down for most of the day.

But yeah. A lot of cc creators use that site--and only that site--to upload their content. And you can't expect most of those creators to immediately switch over to something else, even the active ones. So, I hope it goes back up soon.

They said 4-8 hours, but they probably meant 4-8 days. Ughhh... :(
