Perhaps Wydraz needs some instructions with the mod link? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

With more advanced archive utilities (ie: not WinZip), you can create zips/rars/aces/etc. that come in multiple parts (files), so you can get under limits like the 30 GB file limit on Shrapnel, stick them on floppy disks, etc. Useful for large files being downloaded on slow connections as well. My guess is that this is what Wydraz did when making the zips. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I don't understand the problem. All the zips are discreet files that should be unzipped into the same directory.

Also, I am not using WinZip. I am using Windows XP to create the zip files. All I do is drag and drop the proper directories, and all the files are zipped.

OK, perhaps the file I downloaded has been corrupted somehow?

That's the only thing I can think of...I'm running XP too.

Anyone else have a similar problem?

I would try and download the files again. I just did, and the opened just fine. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

It would be better to use an actual zipping program instead of the built-in XP zipper, as it is not very good (worse than WinZip even IIRC). http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Well, if it works fine what's the...

oh, hold on. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Ok, It's probably just corrupted. I'll try again...

Thanks for the help!
