Erwin Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Anyone downloaded and installed this (for CMBN, CMFI, CMFB and CMRT)? I have it, but when I try and open the rar file, one of the items triggers an "Error" message and freezes the process. I have to go to Task manager to shut it down. Have tried a couple of the d/l links and while the file that produces the error msg is different, the unpack process always freezes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kendar Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 i did and had no problem. Used Bandizip to open the first of the 3 Files, did the trick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) There are 4 links for the d/l. When I tried to unzip the first with Bandizip it says "The file is broken or another split file is needed". I think there is way of doing it manually. But, the files do not automatically open like with a regular zip folder. BTW: Was puzzled that Part 1 has a bunch of background sounds. But, Parts 2 and 3 also have exactly the same named background sounds. Also, the Part 2 and Part 3 folders have exactly the same named subfolders inside ("background; explosions; other; vehicle loops; voices; weapons")? Did you combine the subfolders with the same name together in one folder or do the files all need to be kept in separate subfolders?

PIATpunk Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 use 7zip - just click on the first file and it will extract all 3 files into one folder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have HQS 3.0, but it's probably nearly the same as 2.6. (maybe updated for Modern). I also remembered HQS 2.6 having same issue with duplicate Folder names, and File Sounds and had to weed through each Part.

kendar Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 There is 3 files for the mod. The Last one is an alternative background. Don't Know why you have this problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 I think I have extracted everything ok. Am now puzzled why there are so many duplicate folders with what appear to be the same files in them. eg All three "Parts" have a background folder and in each folder the files are all named the same eg: "background day combat [autumn].wav" etc. They all sound exactly the same to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember this been mentioned before in a past post...Some are simply duplicates, and you need to decide which to keep and which to throw away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 The sound wav I test was identical in all three "Parts". Hope one does not have to test every file to figure out if there are options that should not be deleted. Anyone know... Is the creator here?? Oh, well have to pick this up after trip... Merry Xmas everyone! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerner Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I’ve always had a bit of a problem with Waclaw’s mods...they can be confusing, to say the least. But after I finally figured out where the download button was on that Polish website, it was surprisingly easy. I used whatever Zip program I have, it unzipped right off, and the file only had one folder. (On the CMODS site, there were 3 other optional files...I checked them out and they were just the extra background sound mods.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIATpunk Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Think of a collection of rar files as one file but chunked down into separate files for portability. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAR_(file_format) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
