Problem with single download packs - SOLVED

Postby baker2967 » Mon Aug 08, 2011 2:47 am

I can't open the USA SNES mega packs. Is there a certain way of opening beside 7-zip.

Hi,

for all 7-zip files you will need to download and use 7-zip.

I did but still won't open. It says "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged"

Hi,

Have you downloaded all the parts of the archive? Always check Mega Packs because sometimes thet span more than one file (due to size restrictions). For example, if it says

SNES Mega Rom Pack Part 1
SNES Mega Rom Pack Part 2
SNES Mega Rom Pack Part 3

You will need to download all three before trying to unpack them using 7zip. I hope this helps. If not let me know and I will check the files.
