    • why can't I download?


      Grrr- every time I try to download something from this site, I get a hassle. I have been trying to get deepdeath666's new addon for two days now, and it wont work- I've tried different browsers, Fetch, prayer, begging, but nothing seems to be doing the trick. I either can't get the file to begin downloading, or it only downloads part of it and then it gives up. I have DSL, so this is doubly frustrating....Anyone else have this problem?

      dank u vel!

    • Hrm, is it only deepdeath's addon? If so, you ought to see if he can host a mirror.

    • Well, I have had this problem in the past with Ambrosia's add-ons. I'm going to try it again, but if DeepDeath666 wants to host a mirror site, I'd be very happy.....

    • Alright- I managed to download the thing, but it is a text file when it gets unstuffed. Does this make sense to anyone? It looks like the whole enchilada is downloaded, but first the extractor takes the .sit.hqx file that I download and puts a .sit file on my desktop (which I tried unzipping but it said it wasn't actually compressed) and then the folder appears, but the world data file in there is not loadable by FW, because it is just a text file, with nothing written on it.

      help.....please......?

    • Why don't you try one of the older add ons - Extemporaneous, or Basic Nothingness - I know they download fine - and see if you do better with those.

    • I too have not had problems downloading. It seems like an odd problem, though. It's worth the attention of the glorious Mr. Dunham. Please check the Help is On The Way forum for this topic's new home.

      Good luck.
