Sabot6 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong. I tried to download the scenario "Rescue" from the repository, but all I was able to get was a 40.6KB PHP file (I tried to save the file to my "Scenarios" folder in my CMSF directory). Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Your downloading the actual link and not the file itself. After clicking on the download link you need to put a check mark in the box to agree to the terms. Then click on the download link and the dl box should pop up prompting you to choose where to save the file. If for some reason it doesn't then right-click on it and choose "Save link as..". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabot6 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 Thanks, MeatEtr! I did what you suggested (clicked on the "accept terms" button, got the dl box to pop up and saved the file to my "scenarios" folder in my CMSF game file), but unfortunately all that gets saved is a 43.2KB php_auto_file entitled "index_9.php. I've tried left clicking and right clicking, and all that happens is that I get a message which tells me that my Adobe Reader application cannot read the file....Interestingly, after I saved the file the dl box reappeared and queried me to download "index_10.php", which seemed odd. Anyway, I'm at a loss about what to do next and if you have any other thoughts, I'll happily give them a try. Thanks again! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I'm at a loss, myself. I just now went to Repository, hit the download button for "Rescue!" and a couple clicks later I got a 1.4 meg zipped file containing the scenario. I tried it twice, just left-clicked the buttons and checked-off the agree box. There wasn't much I could do besides that. Sorry I didn't come up with a solution. I'm left scratching my head over the problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Yeah I did the same thing before and just now Mikey, I don't get it either. Sorry Sabot! :confused: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Are you guys using Internet Explorer 9 beta by chance? Make sure you have compatibility mode on. Also, there simply may be a bug with it. Try a different browser. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatEtr Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I'm using Firefox 3.6 with zero problems. By the way, you do have a zip program right Sabot, like WinZip or WinRAR? I use 7-Zip myself. http://www.7-zip.org/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabot6 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 Success! There's something funky going on with IE8, but it downloaded like a dream with Firefox. Thanks for everyone's help! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
