New Member Lizzie Posted June 10, 2013 New Member Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Hello, I've been trying to download 3D Coat 3.7 and even tried v4, but it freezes the download process at different times, but always near the start of the download. Is there some kind of maintenance going on at the moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contributor Tony Nemo Posted June 12, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Just to mention, my downloads only take a few minutes, so I don't think its the download site (I've never had any problems with this issue). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor TimmyZDesign Posted June 12, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Yeah my downloads take like 30 or 40 minutes. I have a so-called high-speed cable internet connection. A while ago the downloads used to be very fast (just a few minutes), but ever since Andrew started to include ALL the different versions (DX, DX CUDA, GL, GL CUDA) and also the instruction manual I think, it now takes much longer to download. I used to download and test EVERY beta, but now it takes too long...now I just download the betas every few months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contributor TimmyZDesign Posted June 13, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) 3D-Coat server: Download: 1.42Mbps Upload: .66Mbps Local server (sent from New Mexico to Colorado USA): Download: 25.39 Mbps Upload: 3.42 Mbps V4 Download time: 37 minutes Using Firefox Version 21 Earlier versions of 3D-Coat (Version 3 and early Version 4) downloaded much faster (5 minutes maximum). Current versions take a long time. I am curious as to what form of ISP Javis is using to get such a fast connection to the 3D-Coat server.

Contributor Tony Nemo Posted June 13, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Such divergent results are hard to fathom. I live in a small northern California town but it is served with optical cable from San Francisco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor ajz3d Posted June 13, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 Can't complain here. Download - 24.92 Mbps Upload - 9.05 Mbps Time for downloading V4 .exe - ~1:43 min But I'm not that far from Ukraine, so that's probably why I never had problems downloading stuff from your servers. Sometimes the connection starts slow, with like 30 kbps or so, but after several seconds it goes full speed. IIRC it's normal for TCP connection.

Contributor TimmyZDesign Posted June 18, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Hmmm this is very interesting! I tested the connection to the USA VPS server last week and got about 20 Mbps download and 2 Mbps upload. I think that was on June 14th at about 9pm USA Mountain Time Zone. Today (June 17th) I tested the connection to the USA VPS server again and got only 1.02 Mbps download and 1.16 Mbps upload. The time now is 10:30pm USA Mountain Time Zone. Why are the download/upload speeds so different just a few days apart? Does time matter? Should I attempt to download during the day instead of at night?

Contributor Tony Nemo Posted June 18, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Maybe the traffic is different or somebody is under a denial of service attack. I watch Netflix streaming video at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor TimmyZDesign Posted June 18, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Maybe the traffic is different or somebody is under a denial of service attack. I watch Netflix streaming video at night. What is a "denial of service attack"? Do you mean the 3D-Coat USA VPS server might be under attack? In any case, if Pilgway is paying to use a server here in the United States, then shouldn't they be getting a consistent and reasonable download speed from that server?

Member jcue Posted July 8, 2013 Member Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Hello, I just tried to download V4.0-05 and my estimated time left is 3hrs.

Contributor Tony Nemo Posted July 8, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 I down loaded it in about 7 minutes this morning Pacific time. Where is "Oly"? Your downloading is taking place at 10:06 PM my time when, as I say, there is a whole lot of streaming going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
