HTTrack is really easy to use it seems, but the download is slow. We have
plenty of speed here but so far it has taken 6 hours to get around 500+ MB and

I get a download speed of 25 KB/sec :/

Ironically, had we had notice that the same thing was going to happen to
Softimage itself when Autodesk bought it (the way they informed
everyone about Naiad ceasing to continue as a product) there would have
been anger but it possibly wouldn't have been quite as volatile,
since it would have been
The wiki is over 3.7gigs with image/video/zips files. Expect the server to
be slow as everyone wgets the files :)

Right, that website produces only 0.1% traffic of all AD websites.
Therefore it has to be killed.
Or Autodesk is now part of a secret www group that has the ambition to remove
outdated websites. As, beside from that
OK, I am not getting much rational feedback here and if you are just picking
apart every word I say with inaccurate speculation it is hard for me to gauge
how serious the need is and whether it is actually worth any effort on my part.
From what I understand the server was maintained by a
You should be able to snag a copy of the site using wget and it will probably
be more functional than a backup since wget will convert all the embedded page
links etc.

I've used that one in the past, and is actually quite good.
But most of these apps cannot deal with database driven websites though.

Out of curiosity - as it is hardly taking any time for AD employees and hardly
any ressources compared to what else AD supports, why not just keep it running

Look guys I am not an expert in IT. The wiki was hosted on a dev server and not
part of Autodesk’s main IT systems so I can’t go to IT with the problem. I am
working with the dev team to see what can be done. At the same time, the reason
the team wants to retire it is because almost no-one goes
Almost nobody in Autodesk terms could be many in Softimage terms...
To me it is invaluable to be able to find info on the odd tool or functionality
every now and then, but I don't visit the Wiki when I don't need it. I will be
using Softimage for years to come, as Maya, though transforming and
To be fair, Autodesk has demonstrated a consistent lack of forethought for
things concerning Softimage customers over the years. Instead of being
honest, they've been opaque. Instead of being pro-active and thinking in
terms of customer service like any good reputable company, the actions
