fs2_open.log?

Here it is.

The readme said to put the contents directly into the /FS2 folder but I've been advised not to do that.

I can't remember how I got it to work years ago.

[tomimaki]

Nah, readme says:

Code: [Select]

Extract the Burning_Heaven folder and all of its contents in your root Freespace 2 Directory.and in your case files are in correct place.


Anyway this is weird:

Code: [Select]

Found root pack 'C:\Games\FreeSpace2\Burning_Heaven_v1_01\BH_Sound_102.vp' with a checksum of 0x2e476376
...

66 filesChecksum is the same as mine, but number of files is wrong. It should be 468 files.

Checksum is the same as mine, but number of files is wrong. It should be 468 files.

The checksums listed in the debug log are only a partial checksum (of the last 2 MiB of the file, as I understand it). If you want a proper comparison, you'll need to do a checksum of the whole archive. You can use an external tool, of course (like md5sum), or you can have FSO do it by running it with the "-verify_vps" command-line option, which uses the same checksum algorithm but checks the entire file instead of just the last 2 MiB and puts the results into vp_crcs.txt. Of course, these checksums aren't comparable with the "abbreviated" checksums used by the debug log; you'll both need to use the same method for a valid comparison.

When I was trying to extract the Burning Heaven zip folder into something I could put into /FS2 I noticed something.  On two of the VP files it said 'CRC failed'.  What does that mean?  I've never seen that when trying to extract FS/FS2 mods/campaigns.

@AdmiralRalwood
Oh, I didn't know about it. Thanks.

@CT27
Download Burning_Heaven_v1_01.zip again.

[CT27]

I can't figure out what to do so I may have to delete this campaign unfortunately.

[CT27]

What does CRC mean anyways?

I also noticed (when I looked in the unzipped folder) that when I right clicked on vps, there were options under CRC (CRC-32 and CRC-64 for instance).

[tomimaki]

On two of the VP files it said 'CRC failed'.

It means archive was corupted, probably incomplete download.

What does CRC mean anyways?

Cyclic_redundancy_check

Any suggestions then on what to do?  My computer said it finished downloading the thing.  I'm kind of stuck on what to do now.

[niffiwan]

Try downloading it again and see if it extracts the 2nd time without logging any CRC errors.

[CT27]

I tried it a couple times on different computers even; the file still wouldn't download right.

[niffiwan]

hmm.... I might have a copy of this at home, I'll see if I can remember to upload it to FSFiles or something.

[tomimaki]

It is on FSFiles.

I clicked on your link and it said 'no file.'

Well, find it here: http://sectorgame.com/fsfiles/?dir=uploads/Projects%20-%20Campaigns%20-%20TCs/Campaigns/SCP%20Campaigns

I'm using Google Chrome.

When I clicked on Burning Heaven in that link you provided, the download bar that comes up at the bottom of the screen said "Failed-No file".

Works in both Chrome and Firefox for me.
