[Central] Free download questions

Why do i get banned for downloading ?

Because you hit our download servers multiple times in a single second (I counted 29) likely because you're using a download manager. Also you attempted to start multiple downloads at the same time. This is enough to make "CheatBadger 2000" a little grumpy with you.

There wasn't even any warning...

You were redirected to the warning page 6 times in the 10min block I'm looking at.

Does anyone have link to some useful mirror links that are not hosted at some 3rd world country at Africa ?

Well, our free download servers are not hosted in a third world country but as you asked there is a faster option for €1.

Don't use a download manager, don't start multiple downloads at the same time and be patient then you won't be blocked.

I don't have any kind of DL manager. But nvm.

I think it should be a one auto dowload were you dont have to mess about un-ziping files and that messing about downloading it puts me of playing on pro mods half the time.

@HULLGinger, that would increase our server bandwidth usage bill by at least 400%. If we did it that way then you would have to download some kind of "installer" program. Installer programs are open to being hacked to include viruses and malware. Downloading and unzipping files from the Internet is pretty basic stuff in my opinion, if you can't handle that then maybe you shouldn't be using mods. Just my opinion.

I installed all the files and paste them in to the promods folder. I tryed to open the file " promods-v251.7z" but it was n t possible becouse it sayed that the file is corupted

[Josh0]

@Martyyyy7, can you post an image of the files you have downloaded showing the complete filenames and file sizes? Like this:


Be sure to enable "File name extensions" in your folder's View menu.

Hello my promods-v2.51.7z says the file is corrupted. I need help with it.

[Shiva]

Miksu423 did you download all parts of the multi download file, before trying to open it?
It needs all parts, before you open.
+ see the picture that Josh0 posted, just above your post.
