Happy Thanksgiving Sale!  \o/

What would make it more happier, is if armada 2526 got on before the holiday :).  Sale looks good though!

Oh. My. God. Thankfully I own most of the games on sale already, otherwise my bank account would suffer like never before. No title on this sale should be missed people!

Awesome. I was a bit late in buying my friend a birthday gift, but now I have enough money to buy both SOASE and Entrenchment for him. ^_^

Unfortunately, Internet Explorer still has a 2 gigabyte limit on the size of files it can download.  You're going to have to have some sort of download manager no matter what.

Browsing through Meridian4's catalogue, I noticed that both Shadowgrounds and Shadowgrounds: Survivor are discounted yet the Shadowground pack isn't. Bug, or intentional?

Reply #13 from Sins Forums Top

^You'll probably find that the two discounts combined come out to the same price as the pack.  If the pack were discounted the seller would do themselves out of the money they would get from the new people who decide to pick up both together cheaper than bying them seperately.  Etc.

 

Might get GUN.  How long does this sale go for?  (I'm in Australia, so all I know about thanksgiving is that the President pardons a turkey!)

What time is the last hour or so I can order RE5 for the discounted price?

www.impulsedriven.com - Currently both Small and Full Impulse files are corrupt.  Finding a working file on another site, update fails and get "Please Try Again" everytime.  If by a goof a game is able to continue without update of Impulse, the file is Corrupt because it doesn't match the server (error is displayed past what can be displayed), and is then deleted without any attempt to install.

This information with screen shots of these issues have already been sent to support, no answer as of yet or valid Impulse files for download and install.

Nothing has changed with them and both appear to download and install fine.  I would suggest e-mailing [email protected], sounds like something else may be wrong.

I've gone and tested on a seperate computer, Windows XP as opposed to my Windows 7 computer, the 6mb file.  It also said the file is corrupt.

Download corrupt, please obtain a fresh copy of this file.

Not able to reproduce this here in the office or at home.  Are you able to download a copy to a flash drive or other storage device from another location?

Within the same building, the file still was corrupt on receiving.  At home, the file works, installs, updates, and installs game programs just fine.  Both networks use the same ISP.  The first building however has a firewall.  I had gone around it on hardwire, still unable to get a working file.  There is an additional firewall possibly at the ISP device.

With the file from home installed on this pc, it installs and updates, but game files still come through corrupt.

If you can't download the Impulse installer without issue, I doubt downloading a game would be much better.  I would suggest checking for issues with networking or gateway security devices that may be causing this.  Do you have an IT department you could work with to resolve this?
