Make a small donation and the limit is removed. All the mods are available on the internet. Members of the SubSim Navy have the privilege of getting them here. Non-members can also, but it will take them much longer.

There was indeed a download limit eight months ago. The reason you're seeing it now is that you haven't posted in all that time. The more you post, the more you can download.

yes, your old posts don't count because its looking at posts within a set time frame so it knows you are an active member so make a few more posts and you will be up to a 10 downloads a day limit or make a small donation to help support the site and you wont have a limit anymore.
the limits are needed because of the HUGE number of freeloaders that use the site and swamp the servers looking for downloads causing the whole website to slow down. it was decided a download limit solves the problem without driving cost so high that site access needed to be restricted so the simple solution short of spending big $$$ to massively upgrade the servers to cater to freeloaders and keep access free for all was to have a reasonable download limit. |
