Unexpected Error extracting "Potato" files

[dishner2013 0]

Hey all, I've just downloaded the new client side version of potato. I downloaded from two different france mirrors and one from the UK. In all of them I've tried extracting using Windows tools, and 7zip and I get a failure to extract on several files. "Error 0x80004005 Unspecified Error" in windows tools, and a CRC failed: in 7 zip tools.

 

I've attached a screenshot of the failures inside of 7 zip. I also tried moving it to my C Drive and it fails the same way. (Also downloaded directly to C just incase D was failing, but I get the same issues) One is mechanical (D) one is SSD (C). Just wondered if anyone else had experienced this and if they had come across a solution?

How about they upload a version of the mod that doesn't have errors in the zip instead.

I have a good copy here 

Exile 10 USA mirror http://www.vega-one.com/patch/@Exile10.rar

I have tested and packed this myself.

Yeah, I'm pushing like 30 minutes and barely 550mb in now.

Same issue here from every mirror. They should fix the file. Bunch of people can't play because they've wasted hours of downloading a trash file from different sources.

Things happen, from a developer stand point there is a lot of moving parts and they provide this for completely free. You can't fuss about something that is free.

Generally I would agree, but in this case I think the people have a right to fuss a little bit.  And given what we have all seen on other user forums people haven't really been all that bad about this. =P
Mostly people are just trying to get a working solution. And if the mirror links are corrupt then they should just take them down until it's fixed.
