To be fair

Being fair… patience is indeed required on here - and always has been…

I have found a Fan Edit / Preservation I am interested in - but don’t know how to get / acquire / download it?

 
Firstly, take the time to look around to see how this place works - and doesn’t - before posting requests for projects on here - thank you.
 

Read through the thread of the project you are interest in - there is usually information in there (often in the very first post) on how to acquire a project.

If no such information is in the thread…
 

then simply send a polite PM to the fan editor / preservationist asking them for links or information on how to obtain it
 

…and after that a little bit of patience is required. It is likely that the Fan Edit author / owner isn’t online every day - or even every week - and may have a ton of queries or other stuff to get through before dealing with and replying to your request.

If you haven’t heard back after some time (over a month or so…), then let it be known that you are seeking a copy by making a post in the relevant thread; hopefully other members of the community on here may be in a position to help you. This also applies or if the fan editor / preservationist are obviously no longer about the site anymore.
 

Do NOT simply just post ‘a request’ for links in the project thread (unless asked to do so by the editor or preservationist) - doing so just fills threads up with endless link requests… which often disrupts any ongoing discussions, further ideas & feedback occurring in such threads.

 
Hopefully this post and the previous reply will also be of some help to anyone else seeking projects and reading this thread.
