I left it on last night.

Came back to an error at what looked like around 35000 or so files left out of 62000.

When I re-checked to try again, it's starting over from scratch, doing the full 8GBs again. Even if this were working perfectly, the slow speed alone is going to scare off any new players and I've got a 50mps fiber connection.

I experienced the same thing as bonchie. I don't know how many files were left, but when i reupdated to download the missing ones, it started over again.

Is it really that critical that we use this modified pack?
RHS, CUP, CBA, Shacktac, and many of the islands (Gorgona, X-Cam, icebreakr, Kerama, etc) are all on Steam.

Could we just get all those and then download a small SHQ modpack from dropbox or something.

Hardly anybody is going to get this working for Monday.

well i'm stumped guys, it all worked for me



I'm contemplating it, however its got several draw backs .. but then so does every method

ok .. possible fix .. go to your shq_modpack folder and DELETE ALL CUP_Dubbing_Radio_*** files parrently other folks are issues with them due to the huge amount of files in each one, its worth a try.

So I ran SWIFTY and had no issues - that I'm aware of. Is there a way to ensure that everything is running correctly? Something specific to look for in a server session? Assuming server is up and running new files.

yay it worked for someone!

easiest way is to load up the editor and see if you can see M_British Armed Forces or whatever i called it

Whelp, tried again last night, after removing the Cup_Dubbing_Radio file. It still said some files failed to download..which is an error I experienced before. I don't know where the log is, to check the log. It's not in the main swifty folder, as far as I can see.

Guess I won't be playing on Mondays.

I had to install my Swifty as admin, so I think that my Swifty log file is under that path (not my non-admin user).

My own download still has a way to go, so I can't report on success yet.

Meat - in the editor, I see the M_BAF units with 3 different paint/uniform types (DPM, DDPM, and MTP). I can place and see multiple unit types. I did get one texture error - but it didn't crash anything.

The one thing I did different than last time - I think my path to my ARMA folders was messed up from a previous data check, so Swifty had me re-enter the path name info for both the source and destination. Other than that, it didn't seem to give me any errors.

silly question to what is prolly a typo, but there should be 14 CUP_Dubbing_Radio files. As i said i now you know what your doing and it was prolly a typo, just thought i'd check

Gin - yea you should get an "editor preview" error message when you first select a unit, thats cos of a typo my end and doesnt break anything


Any news from anyone else? panzer? bonchie? prof??

I've rerun Swift starting this morning. I'm worried because the log file still has all those errors, same as before, but I haven't crashed with errors yet. I'm at 763 of 17,458 files. it usually crashes around 34,000 of 62,000 files. I'll just let it run, but I'm not optimistic.

P.S. I did remove the 14 CUP_Dubbing_Radio files before starting the download.

It crashed, same problem, "Error, One or more files were not downloaded, see log file." So doesn't look good for Mondays session, for me anyways.

so why has it worked for gin and not for anyone else

Good question, tonight I'll pull together all the data on my install and send it to you. Maybe you can spot a difference, something is different.

Update : I've had a good look, and there's nothing out of the ordinary in the config. I thought I'd found something wrong in swifty, but it turned out to be nothing. So I havn't found anything wrong.

Yeah that is very odd indeed. I haven't the foggiest clue as to what could have been different about the file setup/structure for you and Gin.
