Why Downloading MW:LL can be hard
Historically this mod has been one of the less easy to find and install ones out there. Around 0.7.1 Gouty made an installer to streamline the process of installation. Since then and up to the revival of the project by the community, this very installer served thru what is now known as the "dark age" of MW:LL.
Around 2016 efforts put in place resulted in the revival of MW:LL development, this time carried by the community led by xInViCtuSx and Star Wraith; as the original development team of Wandering Samurai Studios dissolved already earlier around the unfortunate C&D event. Year 2017 already saw a vivid release cycle with a new launcher that not only was able to download, re-download and repair corrupted files of the game, but can perform additional tasks and roles besides of obviously bearing several useful links. However, the infrastructure bearing the files now and then remained the same - a voluntary dedicated server with a personal ISP data plan - showed times and again that is easy over burdened by even moderate download spikes that usually occur around release days.
The community has been struggling every since to provide alternate download links and options - the most obvious being a torrent seeded by the beefier ISP subscribers who happen to get the Offline installer first, alas this was not always met with luck. We, the community, where lucky to have our good host and member Rick Hunter who not only hosts the excellent Neucasson game servers alongside the ever trusty HAARP's Funbocks, but Rick also has put in substantial effort and resources, to provide alternate fast download links for other community needs as well.
