Aluminum Donkey Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 Greetings, OK, I just purchased the Normandy map, WW2 asset pack, and Combined Arms bundle. Tried installing the Map first. I figured it's the part I wanted originally, so why not. I deselected the other two and clicked 'install' in module manager. The download took hours, coughing along at ~250 kB/sec. I have a 15 MB/sec connection. Now, the damn torrent is stuck at 96% complete, 4202.1 MB of 4352.6 MB. No peers to connect to. Not even any uploading. I tried disconnecting, and re-downloading. Torrent checks out OK up to 96% again, and stops cold there once more. I don't want to try HTTP download, because it invariably starts the DL again from the beginning, and it's only good for 600 kB/sec. I've run into this time and time again when buying new DCSW modules and it pisses me off every single time. Any ideas? P.S. ED guys, if it sounds like I'm pissing & bitching, it's because I am. Why not post the complete torrent on your website, so people can download it with uTorrent (or other Bittorrent client) and seed it like a real torrent? Why the muffing around? Love your work and all, you know, the usual ass-kissing, but this sort of crap is bloody infuriating.

Aluminum Donkey Posted July 7, 2017 Author Posted July 7, 2017 All right, Imma try selecting both the map itself and WW2 Assets Pack in Module Manager, and downloading the two together. I`ll see if that works. Another 2.3 GB to download, at 140 kB per sec...

Aluminum Donkey Posted July 7, 2017 Author Posted July 7, 2017 OK, finally got it all. Took ages.

Buzzles Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 FYI, the HTTP download can be much faster than 600kB/s. Especially recently, I think c0ff has done some magic in the background. Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!
