I'm not sure. I haven't had a chance to upgrade to 3.6.7 yet. However, there is a report a few posts before this that it won't work with 3.6.7.

Does anyone have it working with 3.6.7?

I havent tested it yet as I was waiting to see if you made a new version so it would make threads for older downloads.

it works for me fine on 3.6.7 version... but i had it installed before upgraded to this version..

the only thing that still bugs me is when you edit the file.. it creates new thread instead add another post to allready existing thread.

Artes_Marciales · #**107** 06-21-2007, 08:07 PM

the problem is because the vbadvanced that I had also installed today

About the Downloads mod,
I think is good!
Kind Regards!

NiTRoN · #**108** 06-21-2007, 10:03 PM

i run vbadvanced too and no issues there.. even the threads show on home page..

CyberRanger · #**109** 06-21-2007, 11:47 PM

Sorry guys, I've been off-line for a few days. So ... is it working okay for the last few posters or not? I'm not quite sure from the latest posts.

But that Hack is for 3.6.6 while this one is for 3.5.5???

NiTRoN · #**111** 06-22-2007, 01:00 AM

like i said.. i use latest downloadsII and this addon on 3.6.7 w/vbadvanced 2.x and works fine.. the only thing that doesn't work correctly.. and it never did was when you edit file it creates totally new thread instead a making post in existing one.
