Trouble Installing

**Jon142** · December 27, 2010, 05:03 PM

I've just downloaded 3.0, the 3.3 update, and the HotFix, but the problem is that it won't let me open what I've downloaded. My computer, which is Vista, lists them as Files and when I try to search for a program to open them on the Internet, it says unknown.

I thought that it was just a regular installer or a jZip file that I downloaded, so I am kind of lost on what to do.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Normally, the SV files are all EXE files, same with Vista

So what would you suggest to do? Re-download?

**VINC.XXIII** · December 27, 2010, 06:44 PM

keep your download, and wait to tomorrow, more skilled guys will goes here^^. I'm remember that I have also a bad surprise after download of an other mod: "SS RC".
This file wasn't launchable as a EXE. And me too I have Vista.
sorry and good night

Rus-Bey was correct here, the downloads should all be executables. If they are not opening when you doubkle click them, they are probably corrupt.

Are they all having the same problem?

**Jon142** · December 28, 2010, 08:31 AM

Yes, they all have the same problem.

Also I downloaded them from Filefront. Don't know if that will help, but thought I would add it in case y'all were having trouble with downloads from that site or other people were having that problem.

An update on my problem.

I downloaded Sicilian Vespers 3.0 from Megaupload and it downloaded as an .exe file. I tried to download the 3.3 patch and the HotFix (both from Filefront), but they were still listed as unknown files.

**VINC.XXIII** · December 29, 2010, 04:40 AM

All the files or just the patch 3.3 and the hotfix?

**SicilianVespers** · December 29, 2010, 09:07 AM

I would guess your download are stopping befoe the entire file has come down.

I only have the 3.3 patch on filefront, but you can try this:

http://games.on.net/file/32081/Sicil...pers_3.3_Patch

http://games.on.net/file/32080/Sicil...3.3_-_Hotfix_2

If they work for you, I will add them to the download page.

Ok, thanks. It might take me a while to download them because I might not be able to be near my computer for a few days.

megaupload link for the patch 3.3:

the hotfix:

I have just downloaded the 3.3 patch, which downloaded as an .exe file. I checked both of the links (Megaupload and the other) and both worked.

I still have to download the hotfix. Don't have time at the moment, but will let y'all know if it downloads properly as well.

No problem, I keep this uploading as solution of the format problem of the files. You had right, me too I have problem with filefront, when I start to download, I see "fichier inconnu", same problem than you.
Well Deus Lo vult Britannia is simply unplayable cause to this format problem...
