It does try to open another page but that just says that the page is unavailable. Other webpages will open so I know its not my browser. It doesn't matter if I try to left click or right click.

Every time I try the link it just displays pages of characters. Is there another way to get this package?

Right-click on the link and use the "save as..." option (or similar). Lots of characters being displayed usually means your browser tries to open the file directly instead of saving it.

I'm still having that same problem. Whether I left click on it or right click and hit "save as" it only has the jibberish.

http server settings

Post by interal » Thu, 26. Jan 17, 22:24

in order for the browsers to recognize a download you need to setup the Mime type for the .spk extension any unknown extension is treated as text

workaround for the users is to save as html and rename the file extension to .spk

I don't have a handy link but I think there were a couple of tools that can unpack spk files, including some installed by the Plugin Manager. But since I know you want to use this for LU, DO NOT install the Plugin Manager in a directory where you have LU or intend to use to install LU on top of it. See if you can just install the SPK tools.

whenever I try to download and open your mod(as a zip file), I get a popup notice saying it don't recognize it as a valid archive.
do you have it available for spk download?

Both downloads linked in the opening post are already spk files. If your browser tries to save them as a zip file, then that's the problem you have to look into.

did you try to download and open via the browser ?

or did it happen just be clicking on the link ?

i did set the web server to advertise the files as zip archives to try to prevent some web browsers from opening them up as text.
but they should still download as spk files

another way to install the spk is to copy the link and paste it in open file inside the plugin manager thats how i do it

crycrow why dont u use mime types for it? the octet stream should do fine?

AddType application/octet-stream .spk

or google "htaccess octet stream"

The file which you can download in the opening post is not a .zip file, but an .spk file. As Cycrow explained above, he set his webserver to advertise the file as .zip file to prevent browsers from opening it directly. Try changing the file extension from .zip to .spk. Then you should be able to install it using the Plugin Manager.

guessing crycrow didnt have the time yet to fix it
theres no need for zip once he uses octet-stream in his http server config for the spk files

all we can do i the mean time is rename .zip to .spk untill its fixed
