Mods always fail to download when using the in-game repository browser
Self-explanatory issue. Any mods I attempt to download using the in-game repository broswer fail at a random percentage every single time, even when the size of said mods are very small. Can someone please tell me why this is happening and how to fix it?

OK, I will replicate the issue and provide a support ID. Also, sorry for the late reply, I was away from my computer.

Replicated the issue and got the support ID:

31598

I also disabled all of my other mods before replicating the issue, like the page you linked said.

The logs shows that your connection is dropping.
Could be caused by a bad connection/wi-fi.

Try with a smaller mod (5-10MB), and also from the website itself please.

OK, I will try it out with a smaller mod and from the actual website. My internet is only capable of downloading at 80 kilobytes a second maximum.

OK, I attempted to download a smaller mod that was around 9.4MB, and it went successfully. I then tried to download a mod that was around 31MB, and it failed when a little more than 10MB was downloaded. One thing I noticed is that the download speed indicator was indicating really slow speeds even though the game was using all of my bandwidth when using Task Manager.

The mod that was around 31MB was able to download sucessfully from the actual website when using Google Chrome.

Anyways, I have uploaded the logs for this attempt, so here is the support ID:

Logs shows pretty much the same thing.

80kbps is kind of slow.
Probably too slow to guarantee mods on the hundreds-of-megabytes size to download without issue or the connection dropping mid-way.

I advice to use Chrome directly, as it has features to resume failed downloads without starting all over. It could be useful for your case.

OK, I will use Chrome from now on, as 80kbps is literally the only thing I can get in my area without spending $100+ every month.
