Dusty7777 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I've tried opening the modder's manual in pdf and word doc but it just won't load up and apparently is an ''error''. Is this a known issue and if it is, will it be amended? Kudos. link: http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=13948 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pronam Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 It's probably at your side, I just opened it without problems. Got the latest version of adobe? I can say the same about word, but I'd say openoffice as that one is updated more often. If you're just after modding-guides the wiki its beginners guide will serve you fine.

Yeah I'm up to date with adobe and word. The message I get is that it's not been encrypted properly and that it's a 7z file (never heard of it before until today lol). It's a shame as the modder's manual looked good from the reviews, any suggestions how I'll be able to download it? And thank you my friend for the link :) One last thing: has the elder scrolls official site been hit by a virus recently? my norton safe web flags it as ''unsafe''.

Maigrets Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 The message I get is that it's not been encrypted properly and that it's a 7z file (never heard of it before until today The file you downloaded is a 7z file which is another form of archive, like Winrar but has greater compression. Z-Zip is a free program, unlike Winrar, and will open all other formats of archive. It's also the most popular format these days for packaging mods.http://www.7-zip.org/ You'll need this program to unzip the archive you downloaded with the Mod Maker's manual. Then use Acrobat to read it. Edit: Must be Norton because the Official forums are OK from my end. Sometimes you get false positives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
