Hi I just downloaded the PLA mod map night files but i can't move them to the add on folder or acess them (even the readme) the only option that shows up is 'extract all' but when i try this it says acess to compressed (zipped) folders is denied and that i need to change permissions. I've had this problem with some other map downloads. I'm using vista and have 7-zip if this is needed.
Any help would be appreciated.
I play less now but I'll always be around, lets keep this site and battlefront going. :)

i had this problem. instead of using 7zip for zip files (7zip is mainy meant for 7z archives) and instead of extracting them with windows explorer's extraction wizard thing, i just dragged them out of the folder and i could use them.
Current Projects:
Battlefront One and a Half Era Mod, v2.0. Making great progress (SWBF)

Thanks but I can't click on them at all. I only get options by right clicking near them.

maybe the location you are trying to extract them to is protected some how.  Try extracting them to your desktop, then move them to addon.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet

Thanks to both of you but i just tried downloading it again the normal way and it all worked fine. :slap:
