Legacy download code recieves more attention.

- Make all the I_Errors return false and print to the console instead.
- New prints for missing files if you can't fit it all into one packet.
- Make the startmessage warning less specific and direct you to the logfile, to accomodate all the different ways legacy downloads can fail.
