I am about 30% done.

What will this do exactly? ;)

looks like it will create an integrated, permissions based download feature to vbulletin.. looks interesting..

You could attach the screenshots here :) That way if your site goes down people'll still be able to view them :)

But can't you already do that with the usergroup permissions now? ;)

I didn't know there was a download script in vbulletin already :S

What I mean is, you can set the permissions if someone can download attachments. Isn't that the same thing basically?

Well I don't think so. I helped Ronin debug this script when he had problems.

It looks more like the download script addon for ibp.

this script is much more than the attachments mod. what this script does is is allow users to submit files to your site so they can browse it as if it were... say.. pafiledb. (located on www.pafiledb.com). It has the following features for every download submitted:

- user name
- title
- description
- screenshot

In addition, you can have download catagories and sub catagories, detailed download stats, and it can autocreate a topic for you if you want (for support). There was a download system much like this that was used at www.ibplanet.com for IPB, but they went down a while ago.

Also, when it accepts new files it renames them to prevent leeching. This mod is not for your typical site, its for sites like vB.org to provide download-system in which users dont have to browse the forum. (basically for sites that have 3 goals: downloads, support, and forums). I am actually coding this for my own site, and it is highly useful.

About attaching the screenshots, absolutely not. People cant view attatched files on this board without signing up, and I think that everyone should be able to view the screenshots of mods before they buy the board. When i submit my file for official download, however, i will attatch it.

I don't see any harm in showing guests screenshots, its the code they shouldn't get.
