Is there another link for FfH2?

[marioflag]

I'm experiencing some unexplainable problems trying to dl FfH2 from 3d downloads.
The queue window simply stops at 12 minutes and i can't download anything, any other link please?

 

[Shadius]

Try rightclicking the download window and manually refreshing? I had the same problem using Firefox.

 

[marioflag]

Thank you very much Shadius it's working now

 

[marioflag]

It's the third time i try to download the mod from 3d downloads and the mod simply stops while downloading.Can anyone tell me there is another link please, up to now i was able only to wait for 3 times 15 minutes to dl from that site the mod and having to abort all three times the downloading just because it blocked.
This situation has become really annoying!

i have also problems with downloading ... The first time i tried the download ws too slow ( 15hours...) and now i have this screen when i want to download




i hope there will be another link soon

 

[marioflag]

black imperator also happened to me just close the window and go again to civ4 downloads then go to 3d downloads you shouldn't have problems now at least to start download!The problem is when you start download at some point it blocks!

 

[black_imperator]

it still does that , about ten times ....

 

[marioflag]

hmmm if you are downloading with a download manager it could be the problem.BTW there seems to be some problem on 3d downloads ATM.

Yeah, I tried with a download manager too, and after about 3 hours the download died. I'll redownload tonight and tomorrow I'll upload it as a torrent, without the permission of the team or anything, because I'm just that altruistic. It's the most obvious solution, but Kael hates torrents for some reason. I think the 2020.exe that's up now will be interesting for a long time (changes will come in the form of patches), so there's no harm at all in distributing as as a torrent.

Not to mention that it seems to me 3D downloads doesn't allow you to resume downloading if your 'net connection is cut. With such a huge file, it'll be impossible for me to get it with my slow connection. Yes, I've tried a couple of times already I remember with light I had to use an alt link on someone's personal server. A P2P solution as an alt download makes a lot of sense.

Eh, that's not necessarily the case, in the light phase I remember a new full version every couple weeks or so. (Not that I personally object to another download site myself. Just correcting a tangential point.)

Due to temporary connection problems, my mirror is currently DOWN.

For those of you unable to use 3ddownloads:
Before looking in the following spoiler tag, know that the use of "download managers" or "accelerators" that try to open huge amounts of connections is a Bad Thing, and that you should disable any such multiple-connection features before looking in the spoiler. If you don't, the mirror will be taken down sooner rather than later.

Okay, but still, one new download every couple of weeks isn't bad at all. We can just pull the old torrent and link the new one.

I'm looking at legal torrent tracker sites now since I guess the team wouldn't like their mod to turn up on a tracker site where you can also download a pirated civ4

It doesn't matter if I use the 3dDownloads site or the lewser.mine site...both of them are very slow for me. I have one of the fastest Internet connections available for home use, and this file downolads at only about 10k per second and takes several hours to download. It's very inconvenient to say the least.

 

[Shadowlord]

Since everyone's going "The download doesn't work ", I'll just mention that it downloaded fast, and without a single problem, for me.

That would likely be your problem. Others are downloading at a more reasonable ~100k from me, and 3ddownloads is faster still when it works.

Just give it some time at the slow speeds, or don't get it in the first place. You can't expect someone to put up a local mirror just for you in order to spare you the inconvenience of actually *waiting* for something.

BCalchet:
Just wanted to take the time to say thank you for providing the alt download link! It works fine for me (80% and counting) and I really don't care if there's slow down. At least with your link I can play fire at all

 

[Mesix]

It would be very convenient if there was a patch available that would upgrade FfH2 0.16 to 0.20. Having to download the entire mod again seems like over kill.

78% done now!!!

2 hours remaining...

 

[Mahatmajon]

I got an error message on the .exe file after downloading it:

'Only part of a ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory request was completed.'



EDIT - NEVERMIND
Turns out this error was either because I
1. Had firefox running (even though I was downloading in IE
2. Had nVidia firewall running

It's OUR problem and the fact that it isn't YOUR problem is no help to anyone.

The original complaint (and mine as well) isn't that it is too slow. It's that it doesn't work. It stops. Yes you can resume but my experience in every attempt has been a damaged header file.

Nobody's asking for special consideration just alternate links.
