In the latest versions, when I select 2 line items, the Rar files, and the separate par2 files, it'll put the par2 files first, but then it'll download ALL the par files first before it downloads the rar files. When the rars are finished downloading, it's complete, so there wasn't a need to repair. What would be the correct settings to only download the first par2 file, and then download the rars before determining if it needs repair?

In the autopar options, uncheck "Disable Par unpausing". Then, new sets you add should pause the pars.

This assumes you have autopar enabled. If you disable autopar, there's a different answer.

I did not have "Disable Par unpausing" checked. I have the following checked:

Automaticall UnRar Complete Files
Delete RARs and PARS on successful UnRar
Doing Pause PAR files
Aggressive Assembly mode

Those are all my checked items on the AutoPar Options

I'd uncheck aggressive mode. Unless your servers are perfect and you know they're perfect. I'd let regular assembly logic prevail.

Aggressive mode shouldn't matter with the pausing thing.

With the same setting as you, except for aggressive mode, I add a block of pars only. The first one downloads and the rest remain paused. I am testing with 6.4B2. I don't have 6.31 installed. It should work the same for you.

I"ll let you know how it goes.

I was using 6.40B1. I have UNS with Astraweb as a fill.

This hasn't changed, even with the new b2. My settings are as you recommended. This morning, there were 2 items i put on download, with the par2 files being separate. I downloaded both, and it first downloaded all of the par2 files, then it started on the main files. when the main files were downloaded, there weren't any errors, and unrar'd just fine. when both were done, the par2 and the main files were deleted. Am I missing something?
