    Hi all,
    I'm trying to download the modpack, but when i visit moddb, I get a 520 error.
    It says everything is ok my end, cloudflare is working but moddb itself is throwing an error.

    The various is-it-down website say that moddb is working fine.

    Has anybody else experienced this issue - if so is there anything i can do from my side to fix?
    Failing that, anwhere else I can get the modpacks?

    Thanks
    Phil

    That's good to know, thanks.
    Is there another copy of the new content, too?

    I didn't have any trouble downloading the Co8 NC - its the 623mb download.

    I just tested all the downloads on ModDB (including KotB) and they all worked fine for me. Did you follow the link directly from the Downloads board?

    I did use the link from the downloads board and sometimes I can get to the download page and select the download then it errors. Other times I can't even load the page.
    I don't know what is going on, but its not having any of it.
    I phoned my ISP and we did some checks and flushed some DNS even switched to the cloudflare dns, but no dice.
    Their conclusion is that the modbd site is overloaded and its a question of luck whether you can get a response. I've tried it many times and different times of day, so I'm a bit suspicious of this conclusion.
    I've tried 3 different browsers
    I even went to the gym and tried it on my phone on their wifi - same deal.

    I'm out of ideas.

    Would it be ok for somebody to post it here, and then delete the thread after I've grabbed it? Not sure of te forum rules.

    Phil.

    Unfortunately 623MB is far too large to post on the site. I have posted a share link with the file on my Onedrive.
    After my assurances I had to use Firefox rather than Edge to download it from ModdB as MS Defender thinks its a dangerous file today

    Thank you, Pygmy. That worked a treat.
    No idea what the problem was, but you've aced it.

    250 xp for you.
