Description

Hi, I installed Waybackpack in hopes I could download all the swf files located here. "http://flashvortex.com/images/"
In the Wayback Machine, I can access them here. "https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://flashvortex.com/images/*"
This is all great, but the waybackpack only saves HTML files. Anyway I can download all the SWF files? Thanks!
P.S. This is critical for me to download these.
