Etools patch 1.2.1 available

[EricNoah]

I've been trying to download it for two days with no luck so far. Keeps timing out on me. Even let it run over night but no go.

I was lucky. I started my download shortly after it was posted and let it go until I woke up in the morning. That was about the last time that I was really able to even get to there site.

Hopefully next week will be better.

No luck ehre yet either...

I have timed out 4 times so far.. when I can get to the page on the site.. and with broadband too..... I did max out at 516 bytes a second though! lol

Startup Time

I finally finished downloading the patch last night (after 11 timeouts in a row -- thank goodness IE started where it left off each time).

Unfortunately it seems that the startup time for the application has increased dramatically --- it now displays the initial square splash screen (along with an hourglass cursor) for over a minute before finishing it's launch.

Is this expected behavior (monkeys) or something others have noticed?

Jeesh, why don't they mirror it already? This timeout dance is getting old.

Grrrrr.

Finally got it. Now if only I could get into the forums to post some questions! I was most curious about the additions to the help file -- I was expecting more from the DMG, for instance.

Nice to see synergy bonuses to skills working.

I will have the patch available sometime on Monday on d20zines.com after I get home from Origins. This will give everyone a solid mirror site and relieve some of the strain on Evil Monkey Mynex's servers. Have patience. Conventions do interefere with the way some folks can operate.

I cheated...

I grabbed the patch from codemonkey's website, but I used a piece of software called getright (www.getright.com), which automatically resumes if there is a timeout.

Makes life easy when grabbing a file from a stressed server.
