D/L problem

21 years 7 months ago

Hi,

I tried to download the zip of Geography discussion that took place on the INA board from this link:

www.i-war2.com/epic/files/Geog Forum.zip

This gives me a 323 kb zip that appears to be empty.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong, because this has me stumped?

Darn. I thought it was my new XP box that was having trouble unzipping an old file. It must have been corrupted. I searched my backup copies for an uncorrupted one, no luck.

Anyone else (possibly EricMan?) have any of the old INA geog forum notes. That thread was a huge amount of work decoding the binary map files.

We have a winner!

It isn't broken, but XP is.
Opening it with WinRar works just fine.

EDIT:
The thread is available here -

Glad it was found. I do not have a copy of the discussion, however, I do have a text file with my notes on the *.map file format. Maybe I should download the zip file just so there is another backup.

My Hero! I thought it was lost for good. I still remember that day Mehrunes posted a pick of a Patcom heading toward Earth - very cool!
