Gotcha.
I put up a list of known Really Bad codec packs [url=http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=3c87f4632a8d4ffded11e4cb047164ab&t=132702]here[/url]. Since providing those to users is really harming them, is it possible to stop “listing” them?

I really like stable systems, and it seems easy enough to pull really dumb bad packs like Ace. =\

speaking for myself as always =)

You can read my stance on codec packs here.
I’m generally against them, but I think Bjarne wanted to include them on the site for completeness. I just helped him compile a list of what’s available out there and we linked them.
We didn’t include the downloads themselves though, mostly because of size, but also partially because of what I said in my other post.

I see on your “Popular Downloads” list that ACE Mega Codec Pack is listed - could you remove the link/reference to that incompetent pack? That’s going to install Voxware MetaSound and MMSwitch, both of which are going to cause stability problems.

Thanks!
