how do you download stuff from DLS?

i am trying to download NYCTA from Content Manager Plus

it only finds it sometimes, and when I try to download it. Nothing happens except for a cow sound. then it locks up for 5 minutes.

TRS2006 SP1 installed. help

That's the Ox in a wheel linked by some Heath Robinson design to a generator to power Auran's server (this is why the DLS is down when it hasn't been fed) :D :rolleyes:.

Seriously though, the DLS is working for me at the moment, but other people are complaining in another thread in the DLS/FCT section of the forum. Try posting in there :cool:.

If using CMP, drag/drop items into the Download Helper on the left hand pane.

If DL direct from website, just click "Download" and CMP automatically sets the DLH going.

Note that in both cases you have to click "Start" within CMP - Something so simple it took me ages before I noticed my downloads weren't going. :o

Which method of downloading are you trying to use?
Could you post a screenshot of the problem? (A picture speaks a thousand words)

Excuse me reviving this topic, as the DLS is playing silly-beggers with me now :mad:.

This is my problem:

Notice there are several downloads waiting, but although on the DLS CMP does not recognise them.

This happens regularly - it seems that CMP needs a day or sometimes 2 to work out what is on the DLS after the upload.

EDIT: by the way, I know you can press esc to remove the message, but this does not solve the problem.

Mods - could you move this to the correct section also.

you will need to wait till it finishes updating the TAD. then it will start looking for the said items in the DLH window. updating the TAD ca take a while. get it started then go do something else.

Is this for the link that BidMod posted if so then you'll need to send a message to helpdesk (http://www.auran.com/helpdesk/) as they are the ones who can fix your problem.

I'll have another crack at it tomorrow - it might recognise the stuff then (still don't know why not today though).

I shall report back (after school).

As espected, CMP is functioning with yesterday's content. I'll try some of todays after finishing yesterday's.

I suspect there is nothing the Helpdesk can do to help me personally, but in the next SP (assuming there is one before the launch of TRSC) they need to address this issue if other people are having the same problem.

Is the problem only with UK versions?

i downloaded the 10mb nycta file by jeffmorris but now it says 10 dependencies missing. where can I get them?

What are the missing dependencies?

Hint: Launch CMP and clicking on the missing dependencies tab and right-click on the item and select view>missing dependencies. Anything listed as a ? is missing/unknown.

is there a better way of searching for these things, i downloaded other subway sets and they all register missing dependencies. and CMP can't even find them!
