Hello, was just wondering..if you can tell me when the downloads will be fixed to download right ?
Everytime I try to download a mod , a wheel pops up like its downloading then disappears and the screen greys out everything, I have to hit my back button to go back to previous screen and it never downloads anything.... I have tried downloading now for a couple days and it just keeps doing this.


thanks...

People having trouble might try changing the default download process in their Preferences as shown below:

Huh?? I don't have that setting (in fact, I don't have anything labelled "Global Preferences"). I'm using IE8 and getting the same thing, BTW - it must be an IE thing.

This isn't a browser issue. Everyone has access to the Preferences page. Here's a screenshot, this one taken using IE, showing you where the menu is found. (Can't hold your hand to click the mouse for you though... :tongue: )

Using IE 9 here, I set it to seperate page and it works. Bit annoying the other way is glitched for IE users.

I'm getting this same issue using IE 8. Changing my download preference to "separate page" allows me to download mods again, but it didn't open a new page/tab/window like it said it would. Instead, it used the current window, so once I had begun the download process I had to hit BACK a few times to get back to the mod's main page.
