File Front DL help?

Am I missing something? I DL the Patch III and it is some 7z file format. It won't open, and if I change the extension to RAR is says it is corrupt.

What am I missing?

Hi bahtz,
You need this to open the rar zip file

Thanks for replying. I have Winrar 3.2 so there shouldn't be a problem opening rar files. I do it all the time.

The problem is that the file I download is not a rar file. It is a.7z file name....unless that is some new winrar file type that I'm not aware of...

unless there is a7zip file type which there appears to be a free program for.....looking into it.

I think you need a program called 7-Zip to decompress 7z files. It`s a freeware so I guess that`s why some mods use it. Do a search for it and you`ll find it.
