Download Woes

Post by Ingles of the 57th »

Hi Folks,

Good to be back again in the ranks after a bit of a break.

Had a big crash after loading patch 3 last year but was really too busy at the time to sort it all out.

Have just restarted SOWGB completely from scratch again and this time patch 3 is behaving OK> (Fingers crossed). On trying to requalify back again through the first scenarios, I discovered how rusty I have become. Back to Boot Camp.

HOWEVER I am finding it impossible to download patch 4 from Norbsoftdev. I tried it six times yesterday and each time it downloaded to 58MB exactly and then stopped dead in its tracks.

I am trying other means today, including asking a friend in UK to try for me and maybe send a CD to Zimbabwe by courier. I will also look back through the forum posts to see if the problem has some history.

Any immediate advice would be welcome though.

Missed ya!

We lost a couple actually. Cleaburn has gone missing... He was working on a Video on SOW (Very cool, and well done video), and he simply disappeared off the radar.

Very cool to have you back amongst us Sir!
