It's a nightmare for me. The majority of files act as if the download is complete when only about 20-50% or so is finished d/loading (The window closes and beeps, just like when something has finished a d/load). As a result, because not all of the file has downloaded, it won't unzip (Claims it's been corrupted or something). Is this just my crappy computer or is it the site? I only ever get that problem on this site. Downloads from other sites always work fine.

And don't say: Get a d/load manager like getright: Getright is crap. It doesn't download stuff. I start the d/load and it stays on 0% for ages, never updating.

Meaning? How is that supposed to help? How can I get these maps? Email's out of the question 'cos hotmail has such limited storage.

The server is sometimes not working properly... I had to upload sm 3 times before I got it working. Your best chanche of success would probably be to try again.

And about getright. TWHL uses quite some coding in the pages. I'm no MySQL or whatever expert but it's possible that getright doesn't find these due to the coding.

Fresh download does, and the code is php, and i've had no trouble uploading my maps, so it must be something with your isp aswell as the overall crappyness of a 56k modem

I'm pretty sure it's not this as I get links to the zip files themselves. More likely the server.

I've never had problems downloading from the 'Vault.
