your not blind - i was just not clear...

Sorry, Bâshrat the Sneaky said that I alone will have access to that... for now...

CDN doesn't have/support multiple logins per account...
just one login per account - so i have Bâshrat the Sneaky's personal login (muhaa haaa)
the old method was, we staged them on dreamhost,
and CDN automaticaly mirrored the dreamhost folder.

now i place them directly to CDN... manually
I assume this will change back to an automirror at some point.
for now we are just eliminateing dreamhost as fast a possable...

Just indicate to me there is a final ready and i will take care of it!

OK, I must be blind. Where can I find the FTP upload info for the new server? Email me?

Yeah i see you put it on dreamhost... we're not useing dreamhost anymore ...

going forward i will move them from the nightlies directly to the secure site at CDN.
(For now the only login account that's available is Bâshrat the Sneaky's personal one, so only i have it [and him of course ])

I will copy it off the DreamHost server -
but we won't even bother putting packs there in the future since DH is nothing but headaches...
every time we have an issue it is related to them - this is our last step in totaly eliminateing them

Done!

OK, the new file is on the final server, same file name. I renamed the flawed 8102 file to DP_Graphics_A_wnt5_x86-32_8102old.7z
If you want to rename the new file to 8103 that's cool too.

You will have to let me do the update...
I am the only one with access to the new CDN location
And i think we should be moving to that (and eliminateing DreamHost)

That's what's funny, that line is already there! I'll fix it and update the site. There's an .ini bug left in there too. Enough to warrant an increment update.

Thanks for that.

I'd figured out it was uncompressed despite the name. So that left the options whether it was intentional or unintentional. I was getting problems since the .INF referenced .cap and not .ca_, so needed to ask. Thanks for helping!

Galapo.

Actually, that's my fault. The file IS uncompressed already, I just forgot to rename the file. The .ca_ files need to be .cap (check the [sourcedisksfiles] section of the .inf and you'll see.)
This is fixed in the nightly, but I should re-release DriverPack Graphics A 8102 to fix that file, just in case.

But 7-Zip compression probably gains from working with uncompressed files rather than those that would get "double-compressed".

You can easily extract such files all by yourself using the

expand

command in the command prompt.
Likewise,

makecab

lets you CAB files, should you want that.

Under D\G\A1\B_68405 we find the file: ativvaxx.ca_. I'm curious as to why this file has this extension rather than ativvaxx.cap as referenced in CX_68569.inf.

Please forgive this question if it is straight-forward: I'm usually only dealing with the mass storage pack.

Thanks,
Galapo.
