Ok, heres my deal, a couple of weeks ago I downloaded the Fallow Deer and put it in my game...worked perfectly. But today I tried to download the Black Wolf Varient skin and the White Wolf Varient and once they finished downloading and I go to open the file a message pops up and says "The compressed folder is invalid or corrupt"
can someone please help me and tell me what could be wrong :crying:
thanks
-
I don't know what the problem is, I would just delete it and redownload.
-
Yes delete the files you have and try a redownload. If you get the same messege with the new version you download PM myself or RedNotDead and we will have a look at the files and see what the problem may be.
If anyone else has a problem please post here so we can keep track of what may be causing problems.
Mods please leave this topic open for further postings by members - YR

yeah, i have downloaded them several times but they still dont work
-
OK I'll download them myself and see what the problem might be. It could be a result from the recent site problems experienced a few days ago.
-
The black wolf varient downloaded and opened fine for me. Try this one again.
I got the ivalid zip messege with the white varient so have reuploaded and tested the download. This one downloaded and opened fine.
Note:I used winzip to open both of these zip files.
-
ok, well im just using the default downloading program my computer uses. I have tried to download winzip but no luck with that. maybe ill try it again and see if i can fix it. thanks!
-
The same thing about the file being "invalid" happens with the King Kong
-
I do what most people do: I simply download it again. But it's still annoying. It's often because it might not have been downloaded properly.
-
You might need to update your WinZip, as the files might have been compressed using 'enhanced deflate'. The latest version can be found at http://www.winzip.com

Other than making sure that you have the latest version of winzip (which it sounds like you've taken care of). One other thing I know of that might be happening is that the connection may be getting interrupted (which will result in you getting that message). You may also need to turn off your firewalls prior to downloading. Just delete those you downloaded and try again.

Also, let us know which version of ZT you have - ZT1 or ZT2 and which expansions you have. This will enable us to help you better and move this to the correct forum.
-
ok. man im so like mad and sad! i've turned off my firewall. now that thing about the connection tell me more about that! this is for ZT2 and i have ES,AA, and im getting marine mania and hopefully dino digs
-
Calm down :happy: A connection interruption simply means that somehow the connection between the cable, your computer, and the internet could possibly be getting interrupted somehow. What kind of internet connection do you have? Also, do you have any type of download manager? Which web browser do you have?
-
i have...um...earthlink but we're getting D.S.L. super fast. well i have downloaded the winzip!!!! so should i try downloading something?!?! i hope it works!! YAY!!!

***ok i downloaded the white tiger and this is what i got please help me!!!!
The Zip file cannot be opened. If this Zip file is part of a multiple-disk set, please insert the last disk of the set and try again (this is required by the standard Zip multi-disk format). You may subsequently be prompted to insert other disks from the set.
If you downloaded this file, the most likely cause of this problem is a bad download. The best solution is almost always to download the file again. If this does not solve the problem, see the WinZip web site for hints on resolving download problems.
If you did not download this file, and it is not part of a multiple-disk set, it is either not a valid Zip file or it is corrupt, perhaps because of a bad diskette.

Does it give you this error with every file you download or just the white tiger?
-
every time...i tried downloading 2 things...penuin packs and the white tiger...so now what do i do? man im so crushed....1st i thought it was working then got excited and it slapped me in the face...life sucks sometimes eh? so...what do i do?
-
What web browser are you using? Internet Explorer? Firefox?
-
enternet explorer
-
Try downloading and using Mozilla Firefox; I've never had a problem downloading with that. Ask permission before installing new software though
-
I Tried That And I Still Cant Download Anything!! waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh...:crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:
-
Yep, today I've had that same problem. I had a huge list of animals that I'd downloaded, both official and user made, and they are all corrupt. How annoying! If it means anything, I've tried using both winzip and winRar, and I'm over my download limit (although other downloads are working perfectly). Please help!
-
Merging similar threads as it is unnecessary to have so many dedicated to the same questions and answers :thumbsup:
-
I have had constant problems with the user made downloads of the Malayan Tapir and Siamese Crocodile(i think its crocodile, either way its Aiamese and looks like a croc.)

The corruption of the zip file happens most often in the transfer for the download. When you get stuff like this off the net from any site it passes through sometimes more then one server. Sometimes a connection maybe yours or somewhere along the line times out and causes the corruption You have to just try again until you get a good file. All the files on this site are fine and were tested not long ago for consistancy and corruption and all the corrupted files were replaced or deleted.
Lt.Dan - there are some files that will conflict with each other and this is mostly due to a line of programing in the animals ai file. It's and LCID setting that is most likely the culprit. This is caused due to the different languages of the world.
Please make sure which of the files is causing the conflict and remove it and let us know so we can possibly have it updated so it no longer causes a conflict with other files.

Hi. I'm having problems with the scenario download files. Everytime I try to download them, a box appears that says "This file is invalid or corrupt". I've tried downloading several times and it still does the same thing. All of the files except Marine Shows Campaign Zoos and Marine Animals Campaign Zoos have come up "invalid or corrupt". Any help that could be provided for this problem would be greatly appreciated. Also the Wolf Reskin Pack has come up "Invalid or Corrupt", I have also tried to download this file several times. Any help that you could provide for this problem would be greatly appreciated.
-
The dark otter varient, elephant reskin, and wolf reskin pack are all corrupt!
-
I just downloaded all three dootdoot, and had no problem :pout:
-
when I download them, I get 'Could not open archive. Not a valid file. Try dowloading again" but when I do, I get the message again! I even deleted them from the archive, still didn't do anything for the three of them
