I agree with what he says, but I honestly wont ever use this, it's really glitchy. Plus, just going to MM2X, and clicking 2 times gets the download, here, you have to select the folder, this, that, and download. You didn't add the dictionary for 64-bit users too. I let you add mine since I don't release much, you added some odd old cars too. I honestly think the new one wont be 20% better because the look is the same.

hmmm. Make a progress bar for the downloads when it downloads and add so that to downloads the whole .zip file or .rar or whatever so that you have permission to put on any car that says that you can with the whole file. ;)

THE goal is simplicity not hard, you just get it from mm2x then as a rar file, seriously, the point is to get AR directly to game

Indeed, the point and the only advantage of a such program is to download the add-ons for MM2 that the programs shows you getting directly the .ar file in your MM2 folder. This thing sounds done for too much lazy people... and then, once learned the easy thing to extract the .ar files from the downloaded archives in your main MM2 folder, the operation can well be done manually for every release that you want to try. Really, cancel this useless project, for how much time you can care to provide the new releases (the ones with permission got) to download through the program? And don't you need to download new versions of the program just to see the downloads available?

@Franch88, this connects to a server with a max of .5mb per second, most servers download much slower, this program will help me alot too.

I have to agree, by what I said, it's easier to go and download from this site. The server does seem to be nice and quick, but it's still faster to get the whole file. But it does need much improving, like instead of a loading bar, it freezes up. I really think you will abandon this, you have to update it manually everytime a car comes out, and this needs special advanced coding, or for a person to download a new version, by this time, they will have this car from the site.

You haven't got what I meant. I meant that this program doesn't connect to a server where can get the updated list of add-ons to download in case you decide to add new ones, because this list is already in the program. The program connects only to download the files, and from a file hosting website. Pratically to have the updated list when you want to provide new add-ons to download you must release a new version of the program just for that: is this worth? Is worth for who uses this program get new versions just for this? Isn't better for everyone visit and get the new files directly on websites like this?
The improvements of the newer version are nice about the add-on details, but there's always the issue explained above, would be needed an apposite programming for that. You're using big images resized in the program, that's why the file is bit 1MB; they have to be natively little. Make this program is a waste of time...
