where did soclab ORB go?

pixelherder · Feb 2005

it used to be here > http://www.soclab.bth.se/practices/orb.html

but that link has been dead every time i checked it for the last few weeks. I'm actually looking to download the source code, so if anyone knows where it might be, i'll be a very happy nerd

yes, seems like it has been pulled. also note that the author, christian seger, is not or no longer mentioned on that institute's people-page so probably his "practices" are finished, a degree has been achieved and he has left for another job.
strange that there never was a notice to the users or at least i didn't recognize any.

while i did download several releases, i unfortunately never bothered to download source.

Hmmm. Here's a mirror, but the EXE is March 2003. No source either.

Another d/l site, same file.

I have one from april 2004 (which i believe was the last version), no source. If anyone needs it; I'll put it up later.

Yeah, I'll take it. We don't use ORB in our pipeline, but it might come in handy.

Thanks.

Here ya go: http://www.dissidentlogic.com/sgfx/data/orb.zip

I've been planning on writing a Max Script & general frontend for it for awhile now. Maybe someday I'll get to it.

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

[I see you're in Orlando. I'm flying in tomorrow, on the way to see family in Vero Beach. Heard it rained today. Probably a lot nicer than the feezing rain we're getting up here!]

it is strange that it's vanished so thoroughly and without notice. you'd think that the author might mirror it on a personal webpage now that he's moved on. Then again he may have been abducted by aliens which would explain EVERYTHING
