TheTokenGeek Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 As you are all probably aware we have had an issue for many, many months now with our file uploader not being able to process large file uploads (typically files above 300MB in size). During this time we’ve been working with mod authors to manually upload large files to our database for them. Obviously this isn't ideal for either you or for us, so we've also been working diligently behind the scenes to get a new uploader coded for the sites. We've finished work on this new uploader and it’s now live and available to be used on the sites. This new uploader brings with it a number of new benefits over the old system, on top of providing support for large file uploads again (we've tested with files up to 3GB in size, so far): All users will now be shown a progress meter, showing how much of the file has currently been uploadedUploads can now be paused and resumedIf you close the page by mistake or you are disconnected for whatever reason, you can now reopen the page and begin the upload exactly where you left it (24 hour time limit on uploads, however!)Your file will not have a working download link until the file has actually propagated across our Content Delivery Network. It can take up to an hour for this to happen. This will stop people complaining about your file being corrupt or only partially downloading before it breaks when they try to download your file too soon after you’ve uploaded itYou no longer need to email or direct message me with your files. Just upload them onto the site as you normally would via your file page admin areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ousnius Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 (edited) Yes, finally! Progress bar, resuming and waiting for CDN sync are amazing. :) Edited May 6, 2016 by ousnius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowslasher410 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Sweet! Thanks for this!A question, though. Does this fix the virus scanner thing that doesn't scan files bigger than a certain size, or is that the virus scanner company's problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
