Help please

Hi, i tried searching, but don't really know what to search for with this problem.

I downloaded SS6.0 via the links in the release thread, but when i went to install it got about a quarter of the way through and then stopped, saying the data in the following file was invalid.

mods\Stainless_Steel_6\data\unit_models\_units\ee_bekhtera_heavy_lamellar\textures\ee_bekhtera_heavy_lamellar_normal3.texture

What does that mean? Or more to the point how can I fix it? I'm downloading everything again, this time using a GamersHell link in case the filefront one was corrupted. But if this happens again what should I do? Thanks!

Pretty sure it won't happen again. My money is on corrupted download or less likely on corrupted upload (as 400 others downloaded from filefront and we've got only 3 reports on this problem). I'll test the download from filefront. Amazing speed so far...

Can you give the crc/md5/sha1 values of your downloaded installers?

[modog]

dunno what the crc/md5/sha1 values mean... so no lol

oh and thanks for checking things :-)

Thats fine. Its like a fingerprint of a file - if two files have different values then they are not the same.

No problem

Filefront mirror

CRC32: n/a

So I'm taking a small leap of faith here in assuming its filefront and not the source file of the upload.
Which is good news for the 1-click-site mirrors but still
