markriley Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 (also posted on bug fourm but no replies) When I click on the download to the Black Shark video (or any of the others), a download box opens and it just wants to download something called "index.htm" I let it DL once (took it about .5 seconds) Nothing there. What am I doing wrong? thanks PS Also tried right click and save target as, but right click doesnt provide that option.

SuperKungFu Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 Have you ever thought about left-clicking the download button to see what the index page looked like? Maybe it would have informed you that the site is experiencing technical difficulties or maybe it has exceeded its bandwidth. Just try again later. Or just simply go to another site and download the same video. http://www.virtual-jabog32.de/index.php?section=downloads&subcat=28&lang=en&PHPSESSID=3048d90f67bcec582e9e212f1cadc6bd PS This is technically not considered a "bug" [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Yes I did think of (and do) the left click and follow up on the index.htm file which was basicly a slim down version of the download page with no additional info concerning site problems etc. Is the down load video on the lock-on.ru site (Black Shark: Free Flight) the same video as the Promo release on the link you supplied? I was under the impression that there were two completely different videos, else why would people from this site post links to a different site for the same video found here? PS, What fourm did you technically recomend that I post this question in since its not technically a bug, oh thats right, none. So technically, your entire post was overall negative, condesending, and useless. but thanks anyway for the effort. A simple "the lock-ru download page is broken but here is a link for what you want." would have been fine if thats what you have come to understand.

SuperKungFu Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 ok...it appears that you were offended by my post. First, yes it is the same video they host it to save bandwidth for lockon.ru. PS, What fourm did you technically recomend that I post this question in since its not technically a bug, oh thats right, none. So technically, your entire post was overall negative, condesending, and useless. I help you and you reply with this tone :confused: ....ok... The reason i said it was not a bug because you said (also posted on bug fourm but no replies) Jeez calm down, last time i help someone like you out. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
markriley Posted February 25, 2006 Author Posted February 25, 2006 sorry to be so short with you. when you said "Have you ever thought about left-clicking the download button to see what the index page looked like?" that did offend me because it sounded like you were saying I was stupid or something, but also my original post states that I did try that "I let it DL once (took it about .5 seconds) Nothing there." So apoligize for misunderstanding the tone of your reply, but I hope you can see why I said what I said.
