lazyeight Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 This morning I was excited to see Scotland and Wales were available for P3D v3. So I tried to download Scotland from FSS. For about the first 10 downloads I kept getting the report that this file was corrupt. I would delete and download again for the same result. Then all of a sudden one worked and i was able to get Scotland installed. Then I tried Wales and keep getting the same corrupt file report. I have tried changing browsers from IE to Chrome to Foxfire and that does not seem to make any difference. I have downloaded many files from FSS for a long time and this corrupt problem has just started in about the last 30 days and it has only appeared on the new scenery ready for P3D v3. I am not trying to point any fingers because I have no idea what my problem is and am open for any suggestions. ​ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazyeight Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Thanks Nick, I downloaded 7-zip and used it. Once again it took 5 tries downloading and opening Wales and then suddenly it worked. I will keep my fingers crossed that the next download goes smoother.

Nick Cooper Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Good news, I meant also that you will get better results if you use one of the recommended download managers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
