Hmmmm... I just gave it (http://df-21.net/downloads/upload.html, right?) a go and it seems to be working fine for me.
If you keep running into trouble, you're more than welcome to email it to me at achtungjackson (at) gmail (dot) com. I'd just slip it right into the FTP then.

PS No big deal but the main page says that DTIDE4 came out in 2006.

Shoot, I'm really sorry about this uploading jazz. It did seem to work when you tried again last week -- Fenwar picked it up then.
I think jackson (at) df-21.net should still work, but also give achtungjackson (at) gmail.com a go, just in case.

He emailed it to me last week.
I think the upload script may have a file size limit of 10 MB - (or more likely something like 10,000,000 bytes) and DT4 weighs in just over that size.
It would be nicer if it told you that at the time, of course. But we probably need to keep it as we get all kinds of crap in that folder as it is (including loads of .php and .exe files from people trying (vainly) to crack our site...!)

Make sure you filter out .ht* files too. I uploaded an .htaccess file once to crack a friend's upload script. I had it add a arbitrary file extension (for this example, .zip) to the list of PHP-parsed extensions and changed the index page to a file I had uploaded (like say something.zip, which could actually be a PHP file), kekeke!
If you're only going to accept ZIP uploads you could also go the extra mile and make sure it's actually a ZIP file: the first four bytes are P, K, 0x03, 0x04, or 0x504B0304 for short.

Thanks for the heads-up on that one, hadn't thought of it. Looks like the upload script renames anything starting with a '.' (".htaccess" became "htaccess" when I tried it) so we were OK.
Could a per-directory .htaccess override the write-onliness of that directory (which is set at filesystem level)?
People do try putting .php and .htm files in there on a regular basis, but it remains secure because nothing in that directory can be executed by the webserver. Even when I renamed my test file to .htaccess (logging in via an FTP client) it didn't appear to get processed.

Okay Jackson I've emailed the ultimate, bug-free, DosBox-friendly version of Dark Tide 4 complete with easier jumping-puzzles, working inf sequences and sound effects!
