i have read the instructions on how to download maps from linkcrypt but i cannot see
were it say authorizing or the gold key and the five black dots. this is what it shows ( hope the link works)

any help would be appreciated

That link is showing the download links so you've already got past the black dots etc...

Click on each 'Part' to be taken to the FileFactory download page

google chrome has blocked it says it may be harmfull
managed to get round that but its an exe is that right

also do i need to sign up for filefactory to be able to download it

The map versions with the automatic installer are one .exe file and some .part files.
The "normal" ones are just .partxx.rar files
You dont need to sign up.
I use the download manager "jdownloader2", with this programm I don't need to start each download myself, when the previous part is done.
But of course the download speed is much slower without an account

1. There is nothing harmful in ANY Navitotal download!! We can't vouch for 3rd party downloads.
2. It's a 7 part download which will be an installation setup when unzipped.
3. There is no signing up required in ANY Navitotal download!!

im sorry guys but i must be missing something here.
when i click on one of the parts it takes me to this page ([Please Register or Login to download file] )
if i click on the blue download now it downloads a exe file which if i hit run tries to install lightning downloader app.

Scroll to the bottom of the page to find a red 'Slow Download' button > click on that and wait for the 60 second countdown > then click to download the file

Thanks for your reply. I had just found after a few hours reading someone mentioned the slow download button. We all have to start somewhere lol.
