VexyRage Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 why are these currupt?.... try to install CLS but every time I dl a file and try to unzip it, it wont unzip, saying its currupt....???....maybe its my library wifi connect?
gregathit Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 Which program are you extracting it with? If it is a 7zip file then you need to use that program or it won't unzip correctly. I use WinRAR for rar and regular zip files. Now this might not be the issue but it is worth checking.

I use WinRAR for rar and regular zip files. Now this might not be the issue but it is worth checking. Should make a difference. Mine always come up as 7zip files but can be unpacked with WinRAR. I would most likely say it's the connection, library wifi's are not really good at downloading files of CLS size.
gregathit Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Some 7zip files can NOT be extracted with winrar. I learned this the hard way. It all depends on the compression that is used when they zip it up.
dergyll Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 It sometimes isn't 7-zip's fault if it keeps telling you corrupt. I had this happen to me many time on Tesnexus, its most probably due to one of the files not downloading completely. Like, say your parts are all 100MB, one of them would be like 76MB and it would give you a corrupt archive thing. Make sure all your parts are the cirrect size indicated by the author, and make sure you have all the parts. Good luck! Derg
Mephisto_VI Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 I have run into that issue as well, downloading from the Nexus (and all but one time it was with the CLS files.) If you are trying to download more than one at a time, DON'T! I tried this and it corrupted all but one of the files I downloaded. I spent HOURS trying to figure out what was wrong (darn near asked Grumpf if the uploads got corrupted too) until I tried one-at-a-time and it then worked for me. Yes, also use 7-zip. WinRAR did not like the CLS files too much (some items did not extract), but 7-zip worked perfectly.
