Manual downloads

[Premchand]

Maybe it is just me.. but i all manual downloaded files seem to be broken. I cannot unpack any of them...if i download them with nmm unpacking works fine. Not sure what is going on..

They come in a variety of different compression methods. Rar, Zip, 7z, etc..... 7 zip is free, and can deal with all of them. Sometimes winzip, or the archive utility built into windows.... doesn't always understand the different formats, so, will declare it 'broken'. I regularly grab mods from here via the manual download links, and never had a problem. (for TES, or FO games......) I don't use NMM..... it annoyed me too much in the past. :D

No something was wrong with the files. I mean i could download the same file with nmm and than look up the rar file and manually unpack it with 7z. When i downloaded the same file with the manual button i could not open the archive at all ..not with winrar or 7z. I never had this problem either and i thought i was just that mod.. but i tried like 10 different once and they all had this issue. But anyway seems fixed now.. or maybe chrome messed something up yesterday idk..

@Premchand; We might be in a better position to help if you'd give a couple links to some of the mods in question...
