Filefront download is messed up
« on: August 13, 2010, 06:26:00 PM »
Hey guys, BDNeon back from the dead. Hard drive went kaput a few months ago and I kinda took a break from COH after that till recently.

So I see a few new patches since I last checked in, awesomesauce. No Ostheer yet but hey, one thing at a time.

I've run into a bit of a hitch though. When I download the 1.2 setup from Filefront, the filename is "EF_Setup1.2.0.0_FULL[1]", and the filetype is listed as "0_FULL[1]". My computer simply doesn't recognize it as a .exe

What's annoying is that all the filefront downloads have been like that for me. I've given up on downloading stuff from them because all the files turn out wrong.

Do you guys have any fixes? If not, any alternate links besides filefront?

If it's size is the same of the original file and isn't exe file, you can rename it to 0_FULL[1].exe.

If it's [1] it's normally a temp, and the download was never finished.
