As a matter of fact, ProMods has done work in the DLC areas too. And we use the new stuff we get with the DLC all over the map.
So basically, SCS makes a part of the map better with an DLC. ProMods makes the whole map better with that DLC.

Yes, for the current version 2.27 of ProMods you need the Going East, the Scandinavia and the Vive la France DLCs. (For the upcoming version 2.30 of ProMods you will need the Italia DLC as well.) I can highly recommend both getting the DLCs and using ProMods. Like Volleybal4life says, ProMods adds a lot to the game on top of the DLCs.

I can recommend you take a look at the Essentials bundle and the Map Booster bundle on Steam.

Yes, using PayPal. You don't need a creditcard to use PayPal. You can send money from your bankaccount to PayPal using iDeal too.

Sorry it's not possible as they are listed as two independent items. If you remain signed in in PayPal it should not ask you to sign in again.
Fair play. My paypal asks to sign in every time (settings) but that's ok.
Well worth it for a great map as usual.

So we are paying for the bandwidth but there are free sites like mega, mediafire, openload and sharemods to upload the map. Where is the sense in having people to pay for bandwith ? Srsly go on a free hoster like mega openload or whatever and upload it there youll have free unlimited bandwidth there too so please explain me why im paying for bandwidth. LOL.

Just because a site has a large or even unlimited upload limit doesn't mean it has unlimited download bandwidth for free. If you are aware of a site that offers >1TB of download bandwidth per day for free, without severe speed/stability issues, we'd love to know about it.

Mega is a free service and can easily offer the stability also every user can download it without any issues since the file is under 5GB.
If mega cant handle the 1tb or more traffic (what it normally can) then you can also upload the mod to openload and maybe mediafire so on each site for example 500 people can download the mod. I dont see the point in paying for bandwidth if the site could offer the download through other free sites. Also there are programs like jdownloader2. If mega limits you for example to 5MB just go into mega download add the link and download with your full speed and everything works for free. Mega, Mediafire, openload and other sites offer that service for free. 50GB storage on mega thats basically enough for the current ProMods version and the next 20.

MEGA won't be free for us. We'll generate a lot of traffic and it'll force us to buy an expensive data "plan" or however they call it (in the meantime, users will be blocked from downloading = a lot of dissapointment and anger).

And other websites will just die. (Sharemods wasn't available for few hours when new version of RusMap was released and it's a bit less popular than ProMods)
Besides, there are only few that allow fast download speed for free, others aren't even worth looking into.
