FastFeet Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 During the install of release v.3.8.1 today, when it gets to the point where it has to fetch files from a server, for downloadable mods, the Download speed is 24kbps and slower. So slow that it timesout. New Host? DOS attack? Something is not right, all previous versions had no issues.
moonbind Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 same here :( must be everybody's downloading at once...
Scorpiany Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 If too many people are downloading the mod pack at once, the download speed will drop. Try to download it when there are not many people online, and your download speed should improve.
Almace Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Yea, have to take the time of the day into account, it's evening on a friday in the EU and early friday afternoon in the US. It's prime-time for downloading, since every last person came from school/work/friends and wants to kirr tanks! 1
BeGiN Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Since it's not a Bug / Issue of the modpack/installer, and it's just traffic related... I will mark this as solved, there's nothing more we can do ,well maybe we just have to buy SNASA ( Secret NASA B) ) servers. :D 1 1

Maybe I'll just hack into NASA's servers... no one needs to know, right? Hack or buy NASA's servers. Download Aslain's Mod Pack. ??????? Profit.
xavanil Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 Aslain's Global Popularity exceeds his download bandwidth - congrats :D
Almace Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 Aslain's Global Popularity exceeds his download bandwidth - congrats :D =) Which is a good thing, kinda. Still sucks for downloads but it's a great thing that "some random dude" with knowledge and a desire to improve the gaming-experience (for himself and many others) get's so popular with it. No doubt about it that his efforts were incredible but his fans gave him the chance to become big as well. I'm just glad that so many ppl appreciate his work, even if there are still the odd haters. Good things deserve to be praised. =)
Administrator Aslain Posted August 2, 2014 Administrator Posted August 2, 2014 I think we need NASA servers to handle all DLC :) Like I said the current server is even up to 15 times better than before. It's like on 0.9.1 release I had only small server to handle it, for 0.9.2 the difference is like 15 more server and it still barely handles it when the user traffic start to download.

Drive a tank through the traffic. That should get you through. :ph34r: 1
