Good day there!
A ever popular question these days is "How do I access downloads?", this post explains it for differing tiers, so here's a redone post explaining the ways to reach the downloads for your tier.
Install Guide:
Simple installation guide can be found at https://betterrepack.com/install/ . Do give it a read if you have problems :-)
Sub $10 (Non-supporters included):
All the downloads publicly available are found at https://dl.betterrepack.com/public/ .
Download methods in this section is BitTorrent and Google Drive. (see bottom of post for problems downloading from Google Drive)
$5 and up:
$5 patrons get access to the patreon exclusive download server for sideloader modpack, for further instructions look at https://www.patreon.com/posts/40053287
$10 and up:
In order to access this part of the download section, you will need a password that changes around the 5th (give or take a few days) every month. You can always find the most recent password at: https://www.patreon.com/posts/patreon-download-34099867
In order to use the password, visit https://dl.betterrepack.com/ and enter it in the text box there and you should be taken to the download page.
Do note that the process of moving the download section during the monthly move may cause it to be unavailable for a short while, so try again later if you're trying during the moving.
Download methods in this section is BitTorrent, Google Drive, BRHost and BackBlaze. Currently investigating more methods to offer downloads.
Downloads at this level carry a potentially hefty cost for me, as my fling with AWS has shown, so very much appreciate it if nobody distributes this link elsewhere.
Higher tier downloads:
Pledging anything more than $10 doesn't give any other means of downloading at this time. I am looking into other methods, but as long as it doesn't cost me much more than the current options I will try my darndest to keep it down at $10.
A heartfelt thanks to everyone supporting me at any level <3
Google Drive problems:
Users routinely experience two problems when downloading from google drive:
When I try to unzip, I get told that the archive is corrupt even though I have all files:
This is due to google drive adding to the file name during download, for further instructions, look at https://www.patreon.com/posts/35687274
When I try to download, I get told that the limit has been reached and asked to try again in 24h:
Yes, this is annoying as all hell, but there's a workaround, described in this article: https://www.oneninespace.com/bypass-google-drive-download-limit/
