gorgeous Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Have bought FNV from Steam - installed and started to play but reading a review in CPC Magazine thought I wouldlocate and download some Mods, starting with World of Pain.Entered WOP in search - selected `files` and downloaded BUT file is only a few bytes big and if I try to openit I get an error that the file is either corrupt or incorrectly downloaded.Have tried on several Mods but I get the same result.Can someone hand guide me so I know where I am going wrong?? Many thanks George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McclaudEagle Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Have you made sure you've unzipped the files after downloading? The reason a large mod looks smaller when downloaded is because it's been compressed before being uploaded. You need a program such as 7-Zip/WinRAR to extract the files first.

Alphachimaera Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 (edited) If you are getting a file corrupt error you might want to try re-installing your browser. Which browser are you using to download the files? Also, keep in mind that A World of Pain is only 3514 kb to begin with when compressed.

gorgeous Posted April 30, 2011 Author Share Posted April 30, 2011 Thanks Guys - I understand the compression of files but as World of Pain downloads at 175bytes and Fook at 175bytes there is obviously something wrong.I tried opening WOP using WinRar which says the file is either "an unknown format or damaged"I`m using Opera browser but I`ll try IE and Firefox to see if it helpsGeorge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorgeous Posted April 30, 2011 Author Share Posted April 30, 2011 Tried the downloads in Firefox and it worked just fine so I`ll keep to FF for all my FNV interest. Again - thanks for your help Regards George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
