It takes custom creators about an hour to just package each upload - not make the BAT or do the lot. You only have to do a few clicks and in minutes the lot is installed for you.  I'm afraid the only solution is to install each lot one by one.

My suggestion:

Divide the downloaded 400 files to e.g 10 folders (40 files each) and then install / unzip them. After you are finished with one folder, move to another and then combine them to one Plugins-folder.

Why don`t make one installer containing all dependencies??

I don`t mind downloading 500MByte or 1GB or whatever, but please one file at least for dependencies.

If the traffic is a problem, make it a torrent and provide a tracker and i bet there would be enough people supporting this solution.

the same could be made for the categories e.g. civic-hospitals - just a torrent file and the traffic problem is solved, too.

Torgivus: People do have a life beside making custom content.

By doing a torrent, people lose control of their files, files that they have spend hours making, packing and doing installers ect. so don't expect it.
