Some crazy D/L speeds during installation
« on: January 11, 2009, 08:05:00 am »
There was some kind of an issue with the FSDT's server this evening as i had some problems while installing my sceneries.

it took me about 20mins to install each of the sceneries: LSZH, KORD and KJFK, so about an hour to install all of them. im not reporting this as a problem, the screens just look kind of funny
Here installing Zurich.

Says 7101 weeks and 3 days.  ( about 136 years :D)
Fortunately, it did not take that long[/quote]

The 7101 weeks it's a bug of the downloader module, so (as you obviously noticed it), it shouldn't be taken too seriously.

However, yes, we are experiencing some slowdowns TODAY ONLY with this server.

If you DISCONNECT your internet connection when installing, you will get a message from the installer, that it will use a local copy of the files, bypassing the downloading step. They might not be the absolutely latest version, but they'll work.
