My first post in this thread came about when I tried to download "Darkseed 2", first using "cURL", then "Free Download Manager" -- which is a GUI download manager. "Free Download Manager" did no better than "cURL" -- both refusing to resume the download. Others might want to experiment with FDM and post their results in this forum.

I have now found one website, thus far, where I can get the "Darkseed 2" download using FDM. A username and password must be provided to initiate the download; FDM can be configured to handle this authorization automatically. So, there is at least one alternative if people are having problems resuming downloads here at "Abandonia."

This is just idle chatter anyway, since nobody here can provide an informed, definitive answer. This can be mentioned to Studentis so they give an answer in time--though it's not really prioritary, certainly not right now.

@t methuselah - as mentioned previously by myself, can't resume downloads from a server that does not allow resuming. i use fdm. used to be able to generate a new link to add a new mirror to continue an interrupted download previously, but no longer works for the games. the 'extras' are not affected at this time, you can still resume your downloads without worrying about adding mirrors or new urls etc.
