Title: Help: When I try to download.....
Post by: [UVache]Dread on March 09, 2007, 12:49:08 am

The new maps like ancient remains and so on it loads to a page with a bunch of text all over it. How can I download it?

I'm on Mac OS X, btw.

You can copy the link, open a terminal, and wget it. I think that wget comes stock in OS X. If that doesn't work try using a different browser or doing one of the key combos (I don't know them without a mac keyboard in my hands) to fake a right-click on the link and then DL it.

We don't use wget, we use curl instead, but the syntax is basically the same.

Code: [Select]

curl -O http://domain.com/the/file/you/want.pk3
Alternatively, you can option-click on a link to download the target.
You can try just using cmd-s to save the page of text with an appropriate filename, but there's no guarantee this will work.
