    Default Downloading from filefront.

    Well, I tried to download the mod but it simply packed up after about 180megs. This was after a very low download speed of about 16kps.

    Could anyone explain to me how to use a torrent???

    Download a client such as Bitcomet. (Can't give you direct links on the forums I believe) Then download the torrent and double click it, BitComet will open and start downloading.

    Just done that. I used Utorrent. Nothing much appears to be happening though. It says its in the download column but no progress appears to be happening. It says 1 item downloading but also 1 item inactive.

    If you're behind a router it may be vital that you forward some ports to get torrents to work properly. I have to, or else I can not get it to work. For a wonderful site on how to do just that, go to http://www.portforward.com/

    It has pictures and details on how to forward ports for specific programs using specific routers (all the way down to what model number the router is).

    When you open Utorrent it assigns a port number to you. That port number needs to be forwarded to your internal IP Address or else it'll just get blocked and you won't get any traffic. To find out your IP address just click Start and then Run (if it's Vista just type this under search instead) and type "cmd"

    A black box will open, type ipconfig and that'll tell you your internal IP.

    Look at www.portfoward.com to see where to insert that port number to be open for that specific IP.

    It's not as bad as it sounds. And 'torrenting' is very much worth it.

    There is something wrong with the torrent. My software is getting no seeders. The website hosting the torrent claims there is no seeders or leechers.

    The websites are never correct as I am seeding right now on a speedy connection.

    The torrent is fine as other people have no problems downloading the mod trough it.

    Download BitComet, it is really easy.
    Once you have it installed you only need to double click the torrent or manually open it with BitComet and voila it will start downloading.
