lol yeah 23...and so far i cant get any of them to work except those that came from external links like mediafire... i cant get past the extraction portion of it it seems....everything is either data error,currupt or some other error...think someone can try and download dynamic environment and extract it and let me know if it works for you?

I have never had this kind of problems when downloading from subsim..

Maybe some system settings?. firewall, antivirus, browser settings, something else.. try to disable all these when downloading from subsim..

are you using 7-zip to unzip the mods?

if you use winrar to unzip 7-zip files they will be corrupted and full of errors

also if you are running many downloads at the same time the data can get corrupted so it could be that

and how are you downloading exactly? are you using any programs to download or you properly following all the links and clicking through browser?
