Large collection of Addons in one pack.

I'm up for some coop if I can get the addons

I'm not sure that I can convince others to d/l 1.6 gb's of addons, but I'll see what I can do.

maybe you split those pack in several parts 3 or 4 ?

I re-packed the addons with 7z and uploaded the new file to the dropbox share. I then attempted to download it and got the same thing. The new pack should be 1.7 gigs but it says download complete on only 1.61 gigs and the archive is corrupt when you try to open it. The original archive I uploaded still works fine so I am going to blame it on dropbox. I am now using winRAR to pack the addons. This splits the pack up into 4 files about 650 MB each. I am uploading them now and will test them as soon as possible and will report back here. Thanks...doa

@zulu1: The addon pack is quite large, 1.7 gig is just the download. It unpacks to almost 5 gigs. I know this is very large, but it represents the cream of the crop from about 7 years of community development. It is far smaller than my "TGS Massive" Addons collection which weighs in at about 7 gigs. The pack we are trying to get downloaded is not complete in that it doesn't contain the conversion mods like FDF, FURR, ACE, ww1, wwII, falklands, civil war, etc. but it is a pretty compresensive collection of individual addons. Some of these are getting very hard to find as resources turn to ArmA and now ArmA2. This pack will benefit old OFP heads and mission makers mostly. I totally understand if a player doesn't want or need them. If you do. Start the download and go to bed. It should be in by morning. :-)

I also tried my ArmA addons pack from a second dropbox and I get the same thing. It reports the file as download complete but the size is too small and it won't open correctly. I have never had a problem with dropbox before. I am hoping it is due to the size of these single 7z files. I am uploading the winRAR files now and will test ASAP. I will report back here as soon as possible.

Update:
I have submitted a trouble ticket with dropbox and I am testing a file hosting service called megaupload now. I will keep this thread updated. Thanks for your interest and paitence...doa

Hmmm about this:
http://hotfile.com/
Megaupload it's good but it have a one big mistake... Sometimes is hard to find free slots :/
When You upload this send me pm. If will be all right with files, I can do a mirror.

edit-----
Free premium users have a better transfer of downloading file during downloading from hotfile than megaupload. It's my opinion of course

Im having a hard time finding a suitable host for the files. Most of the sites make you wait 30 or more seconds before your download starts and force you to sit through a few advertizements,etc. Some of these fee hosts take forever to upload or download. Im still working on makeing these files available again in case anyone ever needs any of these addons. I know lots of people are still playing Operation Flashpoint.

I finally got a reply from dropbox saying they are sorry I am having these issues and they are "looking into it". They also suggest I use a download manager so I can restart downloads. They didn't read my trouble ticket or they would have seen the the files download and show complete but are not the correct size.

Here is a link to the list of addons in the pack: http://www.thegraveyardshift.net/dow...ddOns_pack.txt

I will get them hosted somewhere and post the links on the first post in this thread. Sorry this is taking so long.
