VVS Skins

Post by Airhawk14 » Sun Mar 25, 2007 1:36 am

I downloaded the skins for the sunday coops, but every time I try and open the folder to put the skins where they should go, it sais"To open file, windows needs to find the program that created it". What do I do?

A'hawk,

Did you un zip the files first?

Do you have WinRAR, Winzip, 7Zip or any other unzipping application?

no, I couldn't. I downloaded them and when I click on the folder it sais it needs to find the program that created it. Maybe someone could send me the skins already extracted through email?

Imb per skin x 50 x pilots x no of aircraft is gonna be a bit large for e-mail.

Msn messenger or Yahoo messenger file sharing folder might be better as a last resort.

Better still http://www.winrar.ms/uk/files/wrar362.exe

That winrar sais it needs a code to install. Should we try the file sharing?

File sharing isn't really a viable option.

DL the program.

During Install, if it asks for a code just ingnore the request and continue.

You get a 30-day free trial. After that it just keeps bugging you to register. :lol:
