    Not sure about that last bit. IIRC all of the EA TS1 downloads are archived pretty extensively, across many fan sites and the IA for good measure.

    Then again the last time I checked was probably over a decade ago.

      Yeah, I went through the hunt about 3 months ago. MANY of those fan sites are long-gone, and archive.org couldn’t save them because they put the downloads behind a login.

      There were about 2 good archive locations, but both were incomplete. I got about 96% of the official stuff though.
