  • Hey! As you may already know, I'm on a Mac, but my friend is on a PC. He's having trouble with getting into the Nexuiz folder. When he tries to access it, a message pops up saying 'The compressed folder is invalid. Windows cannot open the file.' When he tries to extract the contents, a message tells him the folder is empty, though it has 190MB according to the info. What can he do to help this?

  • It sounds like the zip file is corrupt
    it should be 888 MB (931,253,731 bytes) for version 2.5.2

    I would re-download it.

  • 1. its not a folder its a .zip file. windows just tried to hide that it is.
    2. its proly corrupt, he needs to re-download. 190 megs sound *way* to small for a complete Nexuiz download.
    HOF:
    <Diablo> the nex is a "game modification"
    <Diablo> quake1 never had a weapon like that.
    <Vordreller> there was no need for anything over 4GB untill Vista came along
    <Samua>]Idea: Fix it? :D
    <Samua>Lies, that only applies to other people.

    I downloaded it directly from sourceforge , I used the downthemall add on for firefox to download it. Downthemall is a nice download manager for firefox and works well for me for large downloads. It also has an area to enter the MD5 checksum to verify the download.

    This is the checksum for the Full 2.5.2 zip
