Hello All, need some help

chris2ao · 07-08-13, 02:22 PM

So I am a huge silent hunter 3 fan and I just discovered subsim.com. I saw all the possibilities with the mods and got really excited. The mod I wanted was GWX 3.0. So I clicked on the download link and was taken to a donation page. Now I normally don't mind donating to a modding community or the forums that support them but I usually at least like to try the mod and make sure it works before I donate. Honestly mods have been hit and miss for me since I use a mac.

So I was still excited to play the mod so I donated some cash and was directed to the download page. Once I clicked the link though, I was given a message that stated "you do not have permission to access this page". It stated several reason why I would not have permission to include I reached my download limit or that I didn't activate my count but it said I could possible rectify the situation by becoming an officer in the subsim navy which would require more money.

I understand bandwidth is expensive but I was a little offended that you would let me donate money to get a mod that I still cant download unless I pay more money. I never downloaded anything so I don't know why I would have reach a limit on anything. I have a suggestion on how you can save some money on bandwidth though, you could augment your secure server download service with torrents.

Anyway I guess this is kind of a cry for help as well, I would just like to download a couple of mods and if it requires I need to pay X amount of dollars to do that then please let me know what that number is so I can make an informed decision.

WELCOME ABOARD!

First, find any post by Jimbuna. He'll be along to welcome you soon enough anyway. You can download GWX for free from the link in his signature.

Second, it sometimes takes a little time for the changes to register with the automatic machinery. Keep trying.

Third, if you have donated and are having download problems, PM Neal Stevens. He's the website owner and can fix all those sorts of things.

Fourth, If you haven't heard anything by this time tomorrow, report back here. I'll PM him for you. That usually gets his attention.
