AttributeError: 'Response' object has no attribute 'is_redirect'

Hello I got an AttributeError: 'Response' object has no attribute 'is_redirect' while trying to download the Horizon: Daybreaker Modpack 1.0.3 with you downloading script.

The console output with and without gui portable option:

This will be because you have an older requests version (is_redirect was added in 2.3.) That being said, a requests session handles those redirects already, so #6 will allow older requests versions to work as this code isn't needed.

Thank you very much for pointing to the cause of the error. I had to install python3-requests 2.3.0-1 from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/amd64/python3-requests/2.3.0-1, because the repositories for Ubuntu 14.04/Linux Mint 17.2 supply only version 2.2.1.
