Hello everyone,
I have a problem with extracting files of PCM daily's expansion pack V2.
I've downloaded it with utorrent, but when I extract Programfiles.7z it says that lots of files (about 800?!) are damaged. Actually they are, because they're all 0 KB. Why? Did I do something wrong? What should I do now?
Thank you in advance.
Thank you for the answer. I tried, but it still doesn't work. I've re-downloaded and retried, but nothing.
Actually, I'm a bit disappointed by this year's expansion pack, and not only for that. It's a pity, because it used to be the best...
Sorry, I was a bit frustrated after a day spent with that, without any solution and with the computer that stopped himself every minute.
However last year, I remember, the pack was self-installing: I think it's better than that.
I'm going to try some other solutions, like extracting it from another computer. Sorry again ;-)
I agree that self-installing packages are a better way of installing DBs. The problem, however, is that the program that I use for making the packages can't handle sizes above 2 GB. For PCM09, that was more than enough. For PCM10? Huge problem, because each stage file is now ~5 MB - in comparison, PCM09 stage files the files were usually between 10 and 100 KB.
I'll be looking into other options when making the full 2011 DB, but I doubt it'll be much easier than the current way of installing.
Anyway, in your case: What I'm confused about is that the files are "damaged". For downloads through a server, this can happen when you don't use a file manager. However, you've downloaded it through a torrent program, so there shouldn't be any problems here.
Did you try to extract the files to a folder on your desktop? If that works, you can move the files manually to the correct folder afterwards.
I also tried to extract them to a folder on the desktop. The problem is that, when I try to extract a file, like a stage .zces, the program ( both winrar and 7z) says that there are some other files, not the one I'm working with, that are damaged. When I check the file, it is 0 KB, and I don't know why, because it isn't damaged, according to the program...
However, maybe I've solved the problem. I have a question for you: if I install:
-PCM daily expansion pack
-PCM daily for 1.0.3.0
-PCM daily V2 from 1.0.3.0
that are all self-installing, is that the same as installing the Full Package? If yes, which patch do I need to install?
As you certainly understand, it's difficult to me to stay without PCM daily pack
If you play singleplayer then patch 1.0.4.1 and don`t auto update. You can avoid this by using the PCM.exe in the game folder instead of the autorun.
For online games you need 1.0.4.2, where the sprints doesn`T really work.
The single files are also working, just step by step.
