Hi,
I have been scouring the internet for this database and none of the links seem to work. Does anyone still have this and can send it to me, or know where I can find it?
I'd also settle for JeffB's database as well.
Thanks!!

[XT] Rapier UTOPIA database - does anyone have a copy?
While klarix's site is quite handy, it lacks the completeness and planning utility of the UTOPIA database, which listed individual factories (most important for player factory complex site planning).
So, I'll re-ask the title question: Does anyone have a copy of Rapier's UTOPIA spreadsheet, or Jasperodus's EXALT tool, or Aye Capn's edited UTOPIA, or any such thing? It would be a shame to lose such a valuable tool, as XT is still quite fun to play (and some of us only recently discovered it!). I've been able to dig up some of Rapier's site via the Internet Archive, but sadly the spreadsheets weren't archived until they became 404 pages.
If a copy of any of the above does turn up, I'd be happy to host a mirror of it/them, because there doesn't appear to be any remaining source.
Not sure how long ago counts as a bump vs. thread necromancy, hope this bump is OK. For some reason, despite the status message saying "You can post new topics in this forum", trying to do so bounces me back to the front page (and yes I have scripts enabled).

When you encounter something like that, delete your browser cache. Then you should be able to post in the forum without problems again.Curunauth wrote:Not sure how long ago counts as a bump vs. thread necromancy, hope this bump is OK.

As to your original problem, you could simply try sending a PM to Rapier. He still visits the forums regularly.

If I had a penny for every time I got asked for the UTOPIA data... it have an annual income of about tuppence! I produced it whilst I was doing my PhD, and it gets far more citations than that the PhD ever did.
Anyway, enough reminiscing. My old site, including download documents, is zipped up and available at: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BwBmhT ... mhmOHlUdWs .

Thanks a bunch! Look forward to perusing it for my next round of factories, for which I am currently farming Orinocos while waiting to hit 100 hours and the Perseus mission.
. . . although perhaps the next few million should be spent buying and outfitting a M3, from what I've heard my Buster is likely not the right vehicle for the Perseus hunt. :-p
Sadly, the common fate of almost all PhD theses is to languish, nearly uncited except for a few people it really fascinates. Indeed, the Internet Archive managed to preserve your paper on the economics of X-Tension from your U. Reading site, but I couldn't find anything academic when I got curious during my pokings-about. That said, one of my favorite (and most personally-cited) academic works is a PhD thesis (Eric Brill's, if anyone is interested in machine learning, particularly w.r.t. language).
