Grey Wolves Installation Problems.

Action Stations! · 09-17-06, 02:03 AM

G'day all,
Firstly, great site and great game. I have been playing SH3 since I could get my hands on it. I took the plunge and downloaded the Grey Wolves supermod. I have installed a clean SH3 and patched to 1.4b, and then run the exe to install GW. A
According to the program, the files it is attempting to extract are corrupt.

The main installation window pauses with the message attempting to extract files,

and a new smaller error message appears stating that the source files are corrupt!

I have tried abort, retry and ignore, and when doing so it just cycles to the next file and has the same error message.
I am hoping that this has a simple fix and if it does, somebody please help! Its killing me not being able to experience TGW.
Many thanks

Try one of these mirrors here: http://www.fileplanet.com/167604/160...Supermod-v1.1a

It is the whole package... but assuming you don't have dial-up internet it shouldn't take you long to DL it.

Some of the other mirrors are a bit "temperamental" shall we say. Interrupted DL's can and will corrupt files.

Welcome to Subsim mate!

Sadly there is no fix for a corrupted download. You'll have to re-download the corrupted part.

*EDIT* Better use fileplanet's link and download the whole package.

Thanks for your jelp with that. I realised that each of my four main files were about 50mb less than they should be.
No wonder it didnt work.

The simplest things.....

Thanks again.
