bartleby Posted April 8, 2011 Share 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorX Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I think he is talking about the Torrent, and the corruptions that come up in the torrent download.

TwoLate Posted April 8, 2011 Share 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] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScEBlack1 Posted April 8, 2011 Author Share Posted April 8, 2011 "hash check" ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoLate Posted April 8, 2011 Share 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] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le0kong Posted April 8, 2011 Share 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 Share 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] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
