I'm preaty sure that the website you load it to cannot use cookies as part of the download... i think. _________________ Nothing I say is false, yet not all of it will prove to be true. |

Test downloading the map from the link via your web browser, if the link requires "Human interaction" (entering in letters represented in a visual scrambling of letters) the url loader will NOT work!! |

I know it's tough to use this Custom URL feature. There are all sorts of issues when using one of those download services. The best thing to do is run an HTTP server locally and load it from there, but that isn't easy for most users. I will think about how to make it easier. _________________ Warfare Incorporated Development Team |

Duh -.- It works perfectly for me. Try to write the Fileden url itself, not through a tinyurl link. Thats how I do it |
