Unable to install mods manually or via vortex, empty/invalid archive

Hi all,

 

Having an issue trying to install some mods for Fallout 4. Specifically:

 

https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/47976

 

https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/55817

 

If I download via vortex, I get the following:

If I download manually, I can't even open it. I get the following:

I was told to post here for assistance.

 

Anyone know what's going on?

Quick test on my side from the various download locations

 

Test file (SS2): https://www.nexusmods.com/Core/Libs/Common/Widgets/DownloadPopUp?id=244282&game_id=1151

 

Premium CDN: Failed (cannot open archive)

Amsterdam: OK

Prague: OK

LA: OK

Chicago: OK

Miami: OK

 

As a workaround, change your CDN server when downloading this file by using the settings here: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/users/myaccount

 

The web team have been notified. However, as it's the weekend it may be Monday before we can look into this further so please use the workaround above.

I am having this problem with Sim Settlements 2. I can't even import or open a manually downloaded version, although I had no problem updating a couple other mods at the same time. or downloading new mods

 

Did you try changing your server, as suggested above?

 

Seems like a corrupt file on certain servers.

Thank you, this worked. I chose Chicago, as it is closest to me, and it worked!

This issue should now be resolved for SS2, but will keep the thread open for any other mod files that have this problem.

 

It's likely to be large files uploaded since Friday.
