Download doesn`t work


Flattermann

Recommended Posts

Hi, I tried to download a file which I found at the FS2004 General Aviation category, but the download button doesn`t work.

The file is FS2004 Taylorcraft Auster Model Plus C.  On the right side there is a black sign for initialing the download? 

Perhaps I forgot something?

Greetings

Click on the package's name (FS2004 Taylorcraft Auster Model Plus C), not on the black button, and on the next screen click on "Download this file". That should work.

Thank you for the quick answer. 

My problem is 1349057965_downloadLink.thumb.jpg.c18b89b6722f21a3136a08da13d869eb.jpgthe download link. I tried it as you said but I get a error message (see the attachment) I doesn't know why but the link leads to the old forumsname.

The same problem is by downloading sceneries from the freewarescenery.com.

First I had the problem finding the new Flightsim.com Forum. Two weeks I thought the forum is dead! And then a friend from an other forum gave me the right websitename.

Good News,

according a tipp from someone in the New Forum Software forum braught me on the idea testing downloads using VPN . And it works😄

No other website I am using needs such a thing. This is for me very strange.

I think you will find it works fine if you spell flightsim correctly.

Picky, picky! lol  I know I "read" flight...  Expectation bias strikes again.

I've not had this issue. What searches/downloads is this occurring with, so I can see if it duplicates here. Thx

Why do I keep seeing "Sorry, you aren't permitted to download this file." 

We cannot know without more information. ie the link you are trying to access.

If you get an error, this may be:

  1. You are using an old link from the old forum - these old links will not work anymore . You need to use the new forum.
  2. The file was removed by the author.

It's most likely reason #1. So please use the download portal her, links do work.

thanks

It wasn't reason #1.

Try doing a file search for "gipsy moth" in the FSX section. I got the message for FSX Gipsy Moths N1510V, G-AAVJ, NC917M, and NC919DH. Then I stopped. Screengrabs zipped as attachment.

So links off this forum do not appear to be working as you think, at least from this side of the pond. I'm sure we'll get there in the end, but that may be a bit further down the road. Have there been mass file removals by authors?

I'm in the UK and a search of the FSX file library for "gipsy moth" returned 26 results (including one rogue tiger moth lol):

works fine here

It works fine for me going through just my ISP's connection, but when I connected my VPN through an Austrian server, I get a 403 error. Looks like there is an issue somewhere along the way for Austrian connections. Is there some sort of geoblocking or filtering going on?
