Hello, and welcome to a brand new TOSEC release!


Just a quick one before the end of the year, LOTS of new Commodore images added.
Many thanks to the tireless efforts of Crashdisk, mai, Duncan Twain and new
helpers AntiPontifex and IguanaC64.

On the ISO side, I'm happy to report the NTSC-US Games DAT is now 100% complete
and verified, due to the above and beyond efforts of Maddog, atreyu187 and all the
boys at Dumpcast.


All folders and contents should be self explanatory. All necessary CUEs are also
included. There are also some scripts included to assist in creating TOSEC folders,
and some 'move' scripts for those of you using RomVault.

For all the latest work-in-progress news, as well as expanded details on all
upcoming changes and additions, keep up to date by visiting us at: www.tosecdev.org

Enjoy!

hi

I'm totally new to tosec (& roms and stuff), so please correct me when I'm wrong, but:
 
is it possible that your release TOSEC - DAT Pack - Complete (2001) (TOSEC-v2012-12-28).zip is corrupted?

I downloaded the file 3 times already (yesterday & today) but can not open the .zip - I'm getting an error "the file ... can not be opened as an archive".
everything else I downloaded is working, so I'm wondering if that maybe happened on your side (when you had trouble with your server).

could you please check that file for me ?
(while I'm downloading the previous version :-)

thanks!
oliver

 

[Cassiel]

No, it's definitely not corrupt. Purely by chance, I downloaded a copy yesterday and was fine.

What zip software are you using to extract? Are you using a download manager, or just your browser?

[Cassiel]

Nope... definitely fine, just re-downloaded.

Today: downloaded through a proxy, via Firefox v19.0.2, opened & tested with 7-Zip v9.22, on Windows 7 Enterprise (all x86 versions)
Yesterday: no proxy, via Firefox v19, opened & tested with WinRAR v4.20, on Windows 7 Ultimate (all x64, except Firefox)

Think must be a problem your side, but feel free to answer above questions and I'm sure we can help you figure it out. 

[e2020]

hi,

thanks for checking!
good to know that the error is on my side!

"Are you using a download manager, or just your browser?"
yesterday I used 'freedownloadmanager 3.9.2',
today I'm using 'firefox 17' and
'microsoft internet exploder 8' (I'm still on winxp)
and 7zip 9.18 beta

but:
I'm connected though an usb webstick (mobile wireless internet) and the download rate sometimes gets so bad/slow it just disconnects me - then, some minutes later it resumes - I still don't know where the error is, but it could be faulty resumes (from the software I use here)...  but hey, I just keep trying until I have it :-)

thanks again!
oliver

[Cassiel]

Yeah, I'd say its definitely your intermittent internet connection... just keep trying I guess. You could also try to increase how far back it tries re-downloading after loosing the connection (these managers typical 'rollback' a few Kb and re-download to overwrite any potentially corrupted bytes). That might be something to try too...

[Crashdisk]

I vote also for a problem with the external manager to download!
Attempt to use the download manager integrated into the browser ...

[e2020]

got it!
(with firefox in one continous download - download managers / resumes seemed to be the prob)
