      Whenever I try and download AACs map, I get a message saying that the file is corrupted. Why is this?

      which one? one my mac home page one, or the ASW add-ons one?
      the ASW one should work fine.

      Other Kings said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show'em. It sank into the swamp. So, I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So, I built a third one. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp, but the fourth one... stayed up!

      I knew it! AAC's map is so evil it corrupts everything around it! Bwahahahaha!

      Ok ok. As AAC said make sure you have the newest version of stuffit expander. I don't
      know if people are stuffing with newer versions and these newer versions of stuffit
      are not backwards compatible with older versions of expander or not, but for some
      reason the majority of mac-related file corruptions upon expanding are due to non-current
      versions of expander.

      The most current version for the mac is 6.5.1 (for OS 8.1-OSX) and can be found at:
      (url="http://"http://www.stuffit.com/expander/download.html")http://www.stuffit.c...r/download.html(/url)

      Download it and drop AAC's map on that sucker, and see if it doesn't open up fine.

      Good luck.

      heh,
      I had an awful time with the map, tried everything i could think of (at first) only have the latest version of expander in x so tried that...then i had a wild hair to try just opening this "corrupt" document with graphic converter....guess what? it worked!
      for some reason the stuffit creator type just didn't get removed on expansion. (possibly because it's still a compressed jpeg, graphic converter ustruffed it the rest of the way for me). I figured it was a fluke for me, but mebbe try just opening with whatever graphics prog your using.
