So, I uploaded the Spring Thing beta of I Am Prey to the IFArchive.
Someone mentioned that there was a special way of linking to stuff in the IFArchive on an IFDB listing, but I’m not sure what they meant by this, and I can’t seem to locate the thread right now. From what I gathered from context, the IFArchive lets you upload a .zip file, and then link to contents within that file from the IFDB?
If I can figure out how to do this, I could link to the updated how-to-play guide in the .zip file.
Failing this, where would I host a PDF for free, and add a download link to it on the IFDB?
I see that the IFArchive now has my beta in the “unprocessed” directory, and I can view the contents of the zip file.
Does this link provide everyone with access to the PDF?
If I used this link, and the IFArchive moves my game to another directory, would this link become invalid, or is 09tuh88b6t the permanent signature for my .zip file?
This link documents how to link to specific files in archive. I don’t know if the hash remains the same when the file is moved to its final place from unprocessed.
