Downloads cutoff (I just want a Talyllyn Route !)

Post by felixbicycle »


Hi all ........Can anyone help me. :cry:
Im getting cut off part way through downloading a file.
Ive obeyed the limits (1st file of the day) but i get a little way into it and i get a message from "Getright" stating that "The file was not found on the server".
This has happened to me on different days at different times.
The file im trying to get is the "Talyllyn route V1.15a" ...I can sometimes get 11 to 12mb into it before it cuts off !!!!!
Getright also sometimes tells me that it is not a resumable server ?

I had thought of paying for a "Premium" membership but from what ive read in the forums this wont help.

Hi
The cutoff must be something your ISP is doing....however just re-que the same file...then when you get your turn...getright should offer to continue the download.
If you get corrupted files....just increase the overlap in getright to maximum....and that should fix that.
The benefit of premium is you dont have to que and the speed of download is 200Mbs if you can accept that fast.

Also check out the CD Ordering part of the main UKTS site. As far as I remember, the Tallylin is available on CD for the princely sum of £4.50. This will give you a CD with the route in an easily installable package, a bunch of rolling stock and some activities.

On top of that... For every CD you order, you'll get one months free premium membership, so you could spend that time downloading to your hearts content and see if being a premium member does make that bit of difference.
