Mod Downloader
« on: December 17, 2014, 02:02:18 AM »
Hello, I have recently been accepted into the 506th. Its an honor to be apart of this, I' just having trouble downloading the mod " All in Arma Terrain Pack" its every bit of 6500MB and I do not have the strongest of Internet connections. It works well for gaming, just when it comes to downloaded my internet likes to drop connection after so long. That being said I cannot complete the download, i was wandering if anybody knew of a way to download this as a torrent so that way if i dropped connection I could continue the download without having to completely restart which is getting me no where.

Kind Regards,
RCT Coverdell

From their BI forum post here: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?182072-All-in-Arma-Terrain-Pack-%28AiA-TP%29-A1-A2-OA-terrains-from-BI-in-A3 they have a torrent download which is the third (3rd) download option for the AiA TP, is found here: http://gameupdates.org/details.php?id=5968

I've not used the torrent download for it, so I cannot verify personally if all files are genuine, nor do I know of the website hosting the torrent. However, I'd like to think if it is on the forums for BI, then it's at least half-way reputable.

I don't believe that torrent is the updated version of AiA TP, which may cause conflicts.

After having another peek, I think you may be indeed correct, WOC Wilde. Seems the torrent link is 09-14, while the pack we use is 10-14, or something to that effect.

I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than I will know of a solution to this, then. It seems the only link provided on the BI page that are currently up-to-date, is the one from armaholic. The other ones I just checked are 09-17-14, where the armaholic has the 10-18-14 (the version we use).

So do you guys think I would be fine Downloading the "All in Arma Terrain Pack (AiA TP) Lite - is the same as the All in Arma Terrain Pack (AiA TP) but with low quality textures for better performance, smaller download and servers." Its a smaller download which i think i could finish before my internet drops.

Do not get the LITE, must have the full pack.

Quote
All in ArmA Terrain pack Full and 10-18 update (do NOT get the lite pack, it causes conflicts):
