Use existing Autopatcher modules to reduce...

Hi, I have ~300mb of modules from previous Autopatcher releases, I tried copying these into APUP's modules folder but APUP fails with "Runtime error 0" when the download starts. I'm guessing my modules would include at least some of the ones APUP wants so it would save me downloading all of them. Is it possible to get APUP to use these?

Yes, it would be supposed, but this are very beta releases, so, things not always work as we want. I released a new script, so try again.

Appears to work now, downloading ~283mb instead of ~380mb. I had the last official core release.

The only thing that doesn't work is resuming a partial hotfix file - in this case the 100mb+ DotNet installer. If you exit APUP while it's downloading, it starts from the beginning of the file again.

Also, while we're on this subject, will the final APUP search for an existing Autopatcher to source modules from?

It doesn't resume because (if i remember correctly) Antonis said that when exiting APUP when downloading a file and resuming it, it was giving wrong MD5 hash, meaning a corrupt file download.
I think that it will, but we aren't sure how it is going to work.
