It says I'm queue position 1 of 23 and nothing's happening! It's been like this for ages.

The download will happen eventually but it will take ages that way. If you want immediate downloads then what you have to do is sign up for a premium account, it costs £3 per month and the downloads happen straight away otherwise you will be stuck in the queue for hours

But if it says I'm in position 1 then surely I'm at the front of the queue?

I've given up on that one and am trying another.

Yeah but that means position 1 behind the download that is happening now. If the person downloading now has a slow comnection and is downloading a huge file like a route then it will still take a while.

Although many don't necessarily agree with it, I don't mind the system of paying for premium downloads, I generally pay £12 (I think) for 6 months at a time. When you consider the amount of content you can get, it's worth it I reckon.

However, it may also be worth noting which file you are after. Sometimes they are hosted at alternative sites depending on the author.

Good tip: if your looking to download the freeware packs (those massive packs with reskins etc.) they are avalible to download directly ie. no waiting, from another website :D

Many do have them for other sites. But on UKTS are directly updated though.

Just for £3 having a month subscription is recommend though.

For the packs i do suggest the WCML N Scenario pack though.

* Not at all biased for suggesting even though have two scenarios & tested it :P
