bartleby Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 Hello all, I am getting a huge amount of "source file is corrupted" messages when trying to download the new instal, it starts at bazar\textures\KC-135 and goes up from there for all the rest? any ideas why it would be a corrupt file? The errors come up in the game after applying the patch or during install? You could try checking the MD5 of the downloaded patch. http://download.cnet.com/MD5-Checker/3000-2092_4-10410639.html DCS Wiki! :book:
WarriorX Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 I think he is talking about the Torrent, and the corruptions that come up in the torrent download.

ScEBlack1 Posted April 8, 2011 Author Posted April 8, 2011 No not the torrent, I downloaded all the files, it is when I run the the instal it stops downloading and says "An error occurred while trying to copy a file: the source file is corrupted".
TwoLate Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 I am having to redownload the new 1.1.07 twice all files except one pass the hash check. Make sure you do the hash check [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
TwoLate Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 "hash check" ??? Each file you download has a MD5 number. You use a program like hash calculator to check to see if your file was not corrupt during download process. http://www.slavasoft.com/hashcalc/index.htm [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Le0kong Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 It could be easier to just use uTorrent to check(hash check) and fix the file, without re-downloading all of it again. Use the torrent file from the same page you downloaded the DCS files.

hassata Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 Le0kong saved me about a day's worth of hell with the above. uTorrent is the dog's balls. Faster download, checks downloads, re-downloads any corrupt files. Dog's balls I tell you. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
