Downloading large mods is broken. Downloads fail with a network error at 100%.

For example try downloading this.

Will always fail at 100%, and then you may or may not be able to resume the download. Sometimes it will resume and finish, other times it will restart the download all over again.

 

This started last night, and I assume it is related to pre-maintenance activities.

Works fine for me, I just downloaded the entire 1 Gb file :)

Fine for me as well. It's probably on your end

[MechBFP]

A dozen MW5 people on discord confirm the same issue on their end, so no.

Another user reporting the same thing in the MW5 discord.

 

In the end it doesn't really matter to me, as I am not the one paying for the bandwidth, so feel free to ignore this issue until you notice the increase in hosting costs as a result. :)
