downloading issues

Hello, my name is Aaron and i use 3D-Studio Max for my modeling. I am new here and I am having a bit of a hard time downloading models for viewing. It says I do not have permission to view the page and that I need to contact an administrator. How do you contact one and is there anything else I need to do to download?

have you signed in to the meshes area?

Because it is a separate part of the site, you need to sign in there, even if you are signed in to the Forum area.

thank you, that did the trick. I suppose this topic can be locked or removed now.

No problem.

I'll just leave the thread here, hopefully it will save others from having to post this same query at a later date and wait for an explanation.

Ok I've got another downloading problem; Sometimes when I try to download movies that members have posted in the forum sections, the download says it's finished (when it's only halfway through) and I only get half the movie.

Any ideas as to why this could be happening?
I'm wondering if since I have Dial-up maybe the download is timing out or something and just thinks it's finished??

Several users have indicated issues with downloads recently. There are two things I have discovered.

1. Members are logged into the FORUM and then goto MESHES area and are unable to download. YOU MUST LOG INTO THE MESHES AREA ALSO. It is a seperate area of the site, that uses the forums user files to check that you are registered. So log in at the TOP of the MESHES AREA - BEFORE attempting to download.

Also - we recognize that the meshes are is crap and we hope to get a new system up someday. Our apologizies.

2. Sometimes when downloading a file from the server. I tend to only get a small snippet of the file like (100K of a 3MB file), on my FIRST attempt to download the file. IF I click to redownload the file again, this second attempt will download all 3MB of the file. I am still investigating why this happens and if I can figure it out I will post an anouncement to the members.
