Can not unzip FOSE

Recommended Posts

Can not get the FOSE to unlock for me. I have both the 7Zip and JZip in the same directory but the file will not decode. I have used the OBSE in the past so I have "Some" idea how it should work. Maybe I need a different unlock key.

I'd like to break this down a bit, this is where the "Fose data" comes from http://fose.silverlock.org/

  • Can not get the FOSE to unlock for me. ? means what.....
  • I have both the 7Zip and JZip in the same directory but the file will not decode.<--Totally means what?
  • have used the OBSE in the past so I have "Some" idea how it should work<---ok cool so I know I have the right link.
  • Maybe I need a different unlock key.<--- this is a scary thing to say here, as there is no such thing.

If there is a language problem, I understand and will try to help, but if not? you do need to please be clear as to what the issue is.

The last line ...no one wants to help..it kinda points to known bad things. so please re-post the issue.

 

I an guess...your file does not open, if the network connection you have is slow? really bad, you have a bad download. If you have the wrong version for that system? that can be the issue too.

Isn't a Zip file a compressed file containing compressed data making it easier to send out rather than the original file? In other words, sending a 1 meg data file instead of a 10 meg file. With the OBSE zip file I would download it, then open it, and have a large amount data which I transferred to the appropriate file. Seems I can not UNZIP the FOSE zip file. I do not see any new files appear anywhere when I click Open, JZIP, or anything else.

Ok, now we are getting some where. #1 OBSE stands for a game here on the nexus , not a utility as it is being used in the sentence,

there is winzip, winrar, 7z a s it is here which you need right now (http://www.7-zip.org/) to even open that archive to begin with.

 

I am not even gonna try to tell you how to set up your rar program, please download the correct formatted utility I provided here.

 

when you install that program ,hit start and then hit 7z, open that up, go to its' options window under it's drop-down menu at the top, and set it up to use every thing on that system. it will take over all zipping applications from that point on and it will extract and compress anything you have desire to do that too, It has the highest compression available to public and it's free, common place and it's widely used here in this community.

 

see, I knew there was a miscommunication going on. On the other thing " ( OBSE) " that stands for Oblivion Script Extender, so you see, how odd that made the words appear?

 

Don't worry, I don't bite, but now you have a good result. I wish you well.

Thank you for trying to help me. I downloaded the file 7z920 and opened it to create a new file, 7-Zip. I then went into that file to find around 15 items there. I then went to the file 7z, an applications file and selected "Open". I then got a very short display of the Zip window, lasting maybe 0.3 seconds. I then tried several other options none of would work. As much as I would like to use the scrip editor and the many mods people have developed, it looks like I've hit brick wall.

Yes, the "OBSE" I referred to WAS the Oblivion Script Editor. I didn't know it could mean anything else. As I said, it worked for me and I had no problems with the mods. You gave me the link to get the download and said, "which you need right now (http://www.7-zip.org/) to even open that archive to begin with" Think that could be interpreted as having the correct KEY? I will admit I'm only a 1 out of 10 in technical computer lingo and understanding. For you, and others a simple "go to" instruction may involve 4 or 5 clicks on the mouse, NONE of which I know off hand. I, along with many others need to be hand held doing even simple things.

I'm thankful for people like you who give your advice so freely. That has helped me with many games over the years. Some 20 years ago+ I helped provide some answers to gamers when this industry was just starting out and the internet was new. I've been with Nexus since its start with only 3 or 4 games. Maybe someone will create a 20 hour+ video entitled " How to set up your computer for playing games" Maybe it would get some of us level 1 player to level 2 or 3.

Thanks again.

Well, as in 90% of my problems, I've figured it out myself! In the download of the Zip file I picked the wrong "KEY". I choose the first selection of 7Z920. What I really needed was 7Z920-64! Once downloaded I was able activate the Fallout script extender and then drop all those .dll and FOSE launcher into my Fallout 3 file. I then launched the program with a fose detection mod and all is alive and working in Fallout 3 land. Thanks for the help.

your welcome, and I acknowledge the post. in my signature, for fallout3 and other games, you will find the very fastest array given anywhere of quick to do links/lists, and instructions for the very basic that fits your reply. It IS why it's there, most here ignore my signature, or have it set to ignored. that is their loss, I know due to e-mail replies telling me this. Double edged sword.

 

What Does the Saying Double Edged Sword Mean?

 

Double edged sword refers to a situation or decision that has both the positive and negative aspects. That is, something that can have or has both favorable and unfavorable results.

but, the spoiler tags do advise to pick the correct data. Some times, in deep thought, we come to realize, things are not what they seem to be as in your case, it required thought.

 

that web page for 7z.org is well put together ,it's lay out can seem confusing the first time it loads, but ,if you take the time to read things, then wait, and think about what you read, what you need and go back, you find what your looking for.

 

the screen in front of you is just a screen of text. Posted By another person that has been down that road, has been confronted with adversity on levels that would cause international disasters. To learn from this, teething pains, Thick skin is another term used, it's not really hard. But, being fare minded and considerate helps a lot. I can't hold your hand, I can only guide it in a direction you need to go, provided I can understand what it is your after, this should apply to all, but men and women have free will, we can not hope to control free will. we can only control our will and speak freely. Confine speech? you end up with loss.

 

I hope you gained something from this.
