Unable to download mods
« on: August 07, 2023, 02:25:23 PM »
I've been trying to download the mods, returning to active billet.

The mods I have problems with for now are: CUP Core, CUP Maps, 506th ModPack, 506th Maps , RHSUSAF, RHSAFRF.
The mods start downloading but at about half of the download, it just resets itself and after a while throws out an error CANNOT DOWNLOAD.

To my knowledge these mods are the largest in size,maybe that can shrink the search for the bug, I've been trying to figure out myself but to no avail.

SPC,

It's hard to know if this is related to the storage server or your connection in some way. Are you able to share a screenshot of the error?
Additionally, please trial the download of CUP_Core from here: https://storage.506thir.net/s/fSzEBbLkm2QD3kN
This is a spanned zip, so you'll need both files & an unzip client that knows how to handle that (e.g. 7zip)

If that doesn't work, I'll explore other options with you.

SPC,

I understand that, but I only have a spanned version of CUP Core prepared, and it may not even solve the issue.

As requested previously, are you able to share a screenshot of the error you're recieving?

Hi SPC Garrick,
I just tested the downloads from my end and it went ok.  I doubt it matters, but could you share the link the the forum page where you are finding the links for the mods?

SSG Jaeger,

I'd suggest posting a screenshot as requested -- as mentioned to you in the PM, this is a new system for us so we need all the information to be able to diagnose the issue.

In addition to the screenshot, please answer the following:
1.) What browser are you using?
2.) What type of internet connection do you have? (i.e., wired or wireless)

SPC,

Based on this - suggest you try a different browser or connection, or clear your browser caches etc.
This may be a clientside issue in some way, as the download is working for others.

Same problem, Couldn't Download it says. I didn't screenshot since its the typical browser cannot download error.
I just tested the downloads from my end and it went ok.
