Title: How to do the dropbox download thing
Post by: Lonely Rogue on July 07, 2015, 12:28:20 PM
I don't know how to ask this on dropbox, and it's FOR my mod, so it IS relevant for mod help, I guess...

I've done that, I just can't find a tutorial on how to make the link to a download. Is it the share link? That has only ever led me back to Dropbox.

It's indeed done with the "share" button. Should give you the link after that.

a quick warning. don't change your dl=0 to dl=1. people will think it will download into your computer right away when they visit the page.
EDIT: i used to have a modpack with a picture for pics or no cliks,,, changed the dl=1 and people started to complain dislike me :( / hate

Dropbox is very easy to use as well. If you ever go making mods with a team, you can make a dropbox branch that only you and the people you allow can see. Makes transferring files really easy.

Eeeeh, you could, I've always preffered Dropbox. It's been around longer than Github, IIRC.
