so i want to know if i have a large download (the current addon set will be about 1GB), do you all prefer it split into 2-3 parts or one large file?

um well when you go to a restorant do you want the cheff to bring you 1/3 3rd the cheeze burger every 20 min, um no. And on larger files I like to click on it, starting the download and go to bed for the night.

Well if the download is one piece anyway and we need all of it for us to play a new mod or whatever it is, then it might as well be in one big download rather than in several pieces at the very least it makes it all in one saved folder and that makes things simpler for a start. Rather than having to piece it all together again from different folders, or figure out which bit is in which part of the downloads.

I choose option #2 because it remind me of option in homeland.
