Bad uploads

Twistin'Ghost · 26 January 2002, 20:25

I received a PM about my Dragon's Breath uploads stating that they were corrupted. I had just un-dms'd them to disks just before uploading, so I know my files are good. So I downloaded them from the Zone and sure as hell, they are bad. Probably Opera again (sometimes it gives me problems even posting pics in messages).I will re-up these to the zone (using Netscape) and if anybody finds any other corrupted files, let me know so I can replace them.

Ah, I mean to re-download these files to see where the problem occured but I forgot. IIRC "RoadWars (1988)" was also corrupt. There were maybe two more but I can't remember which, sorry.

This surely seems to be an Opera Problem since Cody hat problems with Superstar Ice Hockey AFAIR !!

Twistin' , when you upload, please think on ALGEBRAPLUS2.dms

(was also corrupt if you remember).

Thank you

Cody also had problems with his upload of Reunion AGA.

The uploads Twist made with Dragon's breath seem to work now. I can download the ZIP files (which are just the DMSes zipped) and unpack the DMS files afterwards with no problems.

@s4murai
The problem is the zips will open fine in PowerArchiver and even display the correct file size, but when you extract the file(s), they are short.

@§ane
Just re-upped Daily Double Horse Racing. Road Wars should be rolled off very shortly (it's now at 0.1) and then I will repost it. At least this way, I can maintain the same existing filename.

That's very unusual. I even downloaded them on this end and extracted the file using the same program and system I archived it on and it came up short for me (on the 1988 version).
