I don't know man, it just sounds to good to be true. LOL

Downloading all 239MB now.

I'm sorry, my answers are limited. You must ask the right question.

Yeah, sorry for the huge filesize but when you consider it's collectively 74 minutes long, i think 239Mb is respectable.

I wanted the picture quality to be good enough for viewers to actually be able to read options on drop-down menus and boxes because i know from experience that that helps alot.

I doubt this file hosting is perminant because i'm not a registered user so i could do with a perminant location (FredP, i need you!!)

Because then you'd be downloading 500Mb of .rar file, not the modest 239Mb it is now. Anyway, REALplayer is free, why not download that?

Here's a link to download REALplayer

Must be a problem with your pc or yourself.RealPlayer is one of the top video players available.They do have support so they can help you figure out what went wrong.

Too bad these are in proprietary format (.rm) I would have liked to see them, but I'm anal about not putting junk on my system.

Best.

I am disapointed in the responce so far. 76 downloads and only 5 (once you take out all the 'downloading...' and 'i can't play it' posts) comments. It would be nice to see a little more of a responce from you people. I'm not asking for much but i would like comments.

Your lack of comments is making me feel unappreciated...

@ m man:
I screwed up the UV mapping on the mosin nagant first time round but i've restarted the texture and am further than ever. I want to get it finished today because tomorrow i'll be beginning my film (i.e. taking a break from the pack).

I have only had 6 downloads from my site so they must be getting it from Filefront.
Let me say I appreciate the work you put into this and releasing it for the whole community.
