Dear all

I can't work out what download URL to give for box.net. Seemingly the URL should be something like

Code: Select all

https://app.box.com/files/0/f/71484311/1/f_19477143577
but that doesn't work - Oolite complains it can't do the download. But if I use

Code: Select all

https://app.box.com/files/0/f/71484311/1/f_19477143577/Extra Thargoids.oxz
then Oolite hangs when trying to download.

To fall at the last hurdle like this! Please advise - and sorry if someone has answered this already. Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure box.com doesn't allow direct downloads. That's why the wiki has been configured to allow for OXZ hosting. When you log into the wiki there's an upload file link on the left. If you need a wiki account pm maik.

It does allow when you have a paying account. :)
