kvturner Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 When I try to download anything, it says rate limit exceeded, can't use network blah blah blah for another hour. I thought that upgrading to Premium would fix this. Closed out of my fresh install of Vortex, (just moved from NMM), and it shows my premium status, but no change. I have downloaded maybe 5 mods in the past hour, before I started getting errors. I was able to download tons of mods last night in the NMM before I started getting this error. Then I started getting the error over and over. I thought that moving to Vortex would fix it, then upgrading to Premium. Nothing. What am I doing wrong? On Win 10, newest release of Vortex.

kvturner Posted August 21, 2019 Author Share Posted August 21, 2019 So a possible temporary site issue? I know I didn't download 2500 mods or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannin42 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 The rate limit is affected by anything Vortex has to query the API for, not just downloads. Checking mods for updates for example can use up a lot of tickets, downloading a file costs roughly 3 requests per download.Premium account currently doesn't give you any more requests. There is a "network.log" file in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\vortex that should give you an idea of what Vortex is doing on the api. The file is cleared once per day so all requests in there happened within on that same day, if you want the times more precisely you have to convert the timestamps (large number 1566393906231 in parentheses) on a page like https://currentmillis.com But as H2R said, we can't rule out that it was a server-side problem. Vortex gets basically the same error code (too many requests) when the server is struggling to keep up with the total number of requests it's receiving from users.
