The Witcher 2Download consistently fails(4 posts)(4 posts)

Currently running Mint 17.3 and downloading via Firefox. The massive download file doesn't seem to be an issue, but whenever I leave (I'm not sitting in front of this thing for the 15-16 hours it says for downloading it) I return to "failed". Restarting the download worked for all except the last small amount. When it was 99% any attempt to restart the download would simply keep failing, resulting in an unchanging .part file. Took 3-4 days to get to that point since it wouldn't finish overnight/at work. Tried from the library page again, but that just deleted the .part and started all over again. Will I have to literally sit in front of the computer all day to get this? For the record, this is the only file that has the issue, and my connection, while low-end for broadband, is quite stable.

Have you tried just using Gog-downloader instead? I had problems with those huge files, too, but the downloader seemed to handle them fine. It also "repaired" files that had been only partially downloaded by the browser.

Getting a "Problem loading page/The address wasn't understood" message from it, but found info for a Terminal install (After worrying about all the other downloads first, hence the delay). Thanks, I'll try this after work.

I've always had good success using DownThemAll for Firefox on the large files from GOG. You may try that as well.
