Apr-06-02, 04:41 PM (EST) "Help Please !! I'm new at this!" Many Locomotives and Freight cars that I download kick up a message that reads "Invalid Archive, try downloading again."
This comes up when I go to unzip the files. Am I doing something
wrong? I downloaded the 3D F7 Santa Fe the other day with no problem. I deleted it today to show a friend of mine how to download a locomotive. I downloaded it a while ago and now I keep getting the message about Invalid Archive!!! Why would I be able get this F7 yesterday, but I can't get it today?? Please help, I can't seem to get any more locos downloaded!! Thanks. Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Have you tried downloading the file into a Document folder first?I must say your error message your getting is quite unusaul.When the zip extractor box pops up,are you clicking on the "extact to another folder"?Try clicking on the link at the bottom of this page "MSTS FAQ",it will explain how to download the files.
