Cloudschatze says they were looking for "mpsrol.zip". I remembered Yellow Horror's post, and went back to try to grab it from Yellow Horror's archive.
However, mpsrol.zip inside his archive was a 3KB HTML file explaining that the Internet Archive server hosting "mpsrol.zip" was down! I've seen this before, thought I downloaded a ZIP file from Archive.org when instead I downloaded an Archive.org error message in HTML format saved as the ZIP file in question.

So I went to http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://ftp.micro … iles/mpsrol.zip myself, and of course it was working now.

Thank you wery much for your message. Glad to it, i found not only correct mpsrol.zip but also two other files previously copied incorrectly from the Waybackmachine:
\mps-online\demos\FDF14.ZIP
\mps-online\new-versions\asndgsmv.zip

There is the new magnetic link:

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:8BED8EE11944AB5776D8BE876CCB7145779C74B8&dn=ftp.microprose.com

Another note: I did another quick look through Google searching for "ftp.microprose.com/pub/" and snagging URLs when I saw them.
Which found some other missing files from your archive.

Technically they aren't "missing" because my archive is a "snapshot" of the Microprose FTP as at certain date. They were not on the site at that date. But i try to find them and then think about including them into archive. Thank you anyway.
