The site is up in fact and has been for the whole day. It is just that there are so many connection attempts that not nearly all of them are getting through. Pekka Heino Team BHMS www.bhmotorsports.com "Jim Seamus" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:6Z3G9.1179$[email hidden]...

Hiya Pekka, long time no see :-) Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy "goyl at nettx dot no" "The Pits" http://www.theuspits.com/ "A man is only as old as the woman he feels" --Groucho Marx--
Took me a over 12 hours to get it, despite being on cable. It was transferring well at first, but @#$@%! GetRight kept dropping connections and looking for faster ones, and as a result I was sucking the data through a straw for more than 10 hours. I tried to get it to lock onto a good host, but it wouldn't do it. I think the average transfer rate came out to about 1 kB/s. You could do better with a 28 k modem. I am going to have to figure out how to configure GetRight so it doesn't do that. Either that or start using something else.

Go to the getright configuration and set the "limits". Change it to 1 files or segments at the same time. -- karkrazy AT softhome DOT net http://karkrazy.m4driving.sm

Thanks for your reply, but I'm not sure I want to do that. In most other cases using multiple segments has helped. The problem is the way that it selects the servers for each segment. While I don't want it to hang onto a server that is giving me a slow download rate, I also don't want it to drop that server until it has a working connection to a faster one. It also for some reason would occasionally drop valid mirrors for no apparent reason. There were even a couple of times when I manually pointed it at a good mirror, the rate went up for a few minutes, and then it dropped back down to 1 kB/s. Very strange.

I'm on a 56k so I only download 1 segment/file at a time. But I guess if you're on a cable connection, it would be better to have more segments/files to max out the transfer. I downloaded the GTR2002 mod from the racesim link with 1 segment at my friends house with cable and it downed it in 2.5 hours. I say try to find a better server to get it from. There must be one. If everyone shared their GTR2002.exe on kazaa or some file sharing program, we wouldn't have these problems. Hey if it works for porn and mp3, it should work for mods too :) -- karkrazy AT softhome DOT net http://karkrazy.m4driving.sm
