The file MAY or MAY NOT be corrupted.

Find the stuffit Expander app. It should be in your Applications folder. Double click it and go to the preferences and change where to save expanded files.

I think you should erase your hard drive and start over.

wut?

I mean, yes, stuffit expander can open zips.

*sigh*

Select ANY .zip file. Choose 'Get Info' from the file menu.

Look for the 'Open with' menu and select 'Archive Utility' (that's the Mac default) or 'Stuffit Expander', then click change all.

Then try again.

Despite the fact that the previous poster is a little lost, the problems are real. Solo scenarios, at least at the FTP fileball location, are corrupted.

Per my post in Apotheosis thread:

(Half the scenarios listed under Solo are corrupted. Tried to dl multiple times, can't even unzip. Typical ex:

! C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\ChaietraInfinitus11.zip: CRC failed in Maps\Chai'etra Infinitus\M.A.D.D. Readme v1.5.txt. The file is corrupt
! C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\ChaietraInfinitus11.zip: CRC failed in Maps\Chai'etra Infinitus\Chai'etra Shapes. The file is corrupt
! C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\ChaietraInfinitus11.zip: The archive is corrupt
! C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\ChaietraInfinitus11.zip: CRC failed in Maps\Chai'etra Infinitus\Chai'etra Physics.phy@. The file is corrupt )

Just sayin. If someone can recommend a site with solo scenarios for PC/Aleph One, I'd be much obliged! Cheers.

The one in aleph1/scenarios works--try that one.

For what it's worth, if I download ChaietraInfinitus11.zip from the FTP it exactly matches the one on the Fileball DVD. So, it's not like the FTP got corrupted recently.
