Nomad, did you want to know what were the previous filenames? The zip file was "Version 19.zip" and the individual PDFs were labelled:
Volume 1 v16.3.pdf
Volume 2 v12.2.pdf
Volume 3 v13.4.pdf
Volume 4 v10.4.pdf
Volume 5 v11.4.pdf
Quick question, Nomad: The files that you are trying to post on the forum, are they the exact same files that were available before the corruption occurred or have you generated new PDFs from the original source material. I ask as I had problems getting the previous ones printed. Would you also happen to know what pdf format the files are in.
Thank you for taking the time to repost the Fallout Equestria pdfs; the story aside, the print version was wonderfully put together. I look forward to finally being able to get a physical version of the book.
P.S. Love your profile pic.

To answer your question these are not the original files from the site before I removed them no... those files were corrupted by the server move I believe and are unrecoverable due to that, but they are the same downloaded files given to me by someone who had downloaded them. By request I am here to re-post them... eventually. Sorry I took so long. However my next next post will contain the files, need to quickly get them off my other computer.
Thank you as well for telling me what the names were.
edit: Okay every time I try to attach the files it acts as if I'm making a new reply, will have to talk to Arcane about this. I tried.

Nomad, when did the server move occur; was it after October 10? I ask because the PDFs I am having problems with were downloaded before then.
As for posting the files, couldn't you just start a new topic with the files and just leave a link in this topic to the new one? Just an idea.

Tried your suggestion and it didn't work, I've contacted the web administrator of the issue. It might be fixed sooner or later. Just realize that the site is a lot more buggier with the server move. I don't remember when the server move was, gotta ask Web Admin of that too if you really want to know.

Hello! I apologize for the random drop in.
I Used to have these PDFs on my hard drive until a couple months ago when I lost most of the data on it. I have combed the internet in search of this version and this appears to be the only place I can find it, and I believe was where I originally got it from. This was the very first version of the story that I read, so it has some sentimental value to me.
I made an account and came here in the hopes it has been uploaded Somewhere, and if someone could point me in the right direction to find them, as it seems they have been removed from the original post. I apologize if this is not allowed, but I would love to have them again. Would this be possible?

Hi! Don't worry, we still have the original PDFs, but the ones uploaded on the forums got corrupted during web and forums migration. Unfortunately, at this moment we can't reupload them back due to little bug in the backend. Howerer, our forums administrators are trying hard to solve this issue, so the PDFs should appear back on the forums soon.

And as usual, I forgot to mention the most important thing - reuploaded PDFs can be finally found in the
first post of this thread again!

mrc0mmand, Zemming, and Nomad,
Thanks for getting the PDFs back up on the website. I finally managed to get my copy printed. I just wanted to leave a note here regarding the problems, and corresponding solutions, that I had with the printing process in case anyone else has or will come across a similar problem. I had my book printed on a Espresso Book Machine; however, the machine didn't accept the PDFs as they were provided on the website. They narrowed the trouble to (1) a problem with transparency layers and / or (2) the file containing embedded metadata that was not jiving with the conversion process inside the printing machine. The instruction for optimizing the PDF files is available
here.
Thanks again for getting the PDFs back on the site.
