I am sick of getting PM's and people posting in my profile about why you can't download mods, so I thought that I would make a post with the reason why.

ModDB is a profit free website, we are run by volunteers and our advertising pays for the hosting. Thanks to the support of our community we are soon able to purchase a download server. However the system is still switched off as Intense makes the finishing touches to it.

That makes downloads NOT AVAILABLE at this point in time while Intense works on finishing the downloads system. He is a very busy man and has built all versions of ModDB from the ground up, so please just let him be.

Once the download system becomes available you will be notified via an announcement and a post on the main page.

Many of the people that try to download mods and thus send in messages to us don't check the forums Tarky. :)

if they're too stupid to just read the moddb message that comes up, or simply go to the mod's site and download the mod, then they're not going to be smart enough to read this thread. so that kind of defeats the whole purpose :/

Why not let mod teams set up the download link to direct to their download which they already have uploaded on their site?

is there a way 2 get mods 4 the ps2?

This is strictly PC mods. You're going to have to go somewhere else for that.

For the most part, though, those are practically unexistant, so you're SOL, my friend.
