Help: When I try to download.....
« 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.
Code: [Select]
Linux: ~/.tremulous/base/
Mac: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Tremulous/base/
Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Tremulous\base\

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.
