wolverinetree Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I honestly don't know what a "unique download" is... Could you explain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualBlack Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I believe a unique download is a single download from 1 IP address (or user, I am not 100% sure how it tracks it). This means if I was to download a mod you made 5 times it would say: 5 Downloads, 1 Unique Download. Hope this answers your question :biggrin: .

Hope this answers your question :biggrin: . you have it spot on I believe then why is there like 13 unique downloads20 downloads for some mod for example that is someone's 1st mod ever? why would someone download it more than once :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KainSpice Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Well, for instances where someone had to reinstall or if the download was corrupt, someone would have to re-download it. There's a multitude of reasons why someone would want to re-download a mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wetblanket Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I suspect updates and multiple files are also not included in the 'unique' count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moirai Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I must admit that I'm still rather confused by this system. I've just uploaded a mod a short while ago, and currently it has 2 'unique' downloads and 1 'total' download. How is that even possible...? Edit: Here's a screenshot, just in case anybody thinks I'm fibbing. :tongue: Screenshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
