Transgender Shape Download broken

When I try to move my Transgender Shapes into my Library I get this broken files report from 7zip.

(same result if I just try to extract the folder into the current folder)

Anyone can confirm this too?

Belongs to this product:

    I used dim and the product downloaded and extracted correctly.

    I see this, but it doesn't affect the use of the product as it is just a set of placeholder files for some tips tellling you to select the geometry shell before applying certain presets for the scars. I will report the issue.

    I never use DIM. if it is not needed, like Mesh grabbers rotation addon was ONLY via DIM aviable -_-

     

    Where do i get an update IF the user fix the download/zip?

    Hmmm okay, thanks, maybe I get an update so I can overwrite it then in the future.

    I also made an ticket.

    Dim tends to be the most reliable sources of updates. But I assume you can get the manual installer in your library if they ever make an update.

    I am somewhat jaded about the store updating products- still have many tickets in for products that have never been corrected.

    I got already some answers via ticket, that they will informate me on the ticket IF they correct this :<

    7zip doesn't like 0byte files, but the "real files" within the zip-file can be extracted with Windows Explorer, just use it to navigate inside the zip-file and copy the content to a "real" folder.

    I also used WIndows explorer (never knowed it can open zips!) and had there also an "unknown error" bug.

    That did happen when I used windows explorer to move all out of the zip.

    It says "unknown error".

    Yes, Windows Explorer gives a warning about them too, but you can skip it (Überspringen?) and it will stilll copy the rest of the files (the important ones), as 7zip stops the process completely and doesn't extract anything.

    7zip does continue if you extract it to a folder "extract to IM_001xxxx..." whatever the name is. if you just drag&drop it out of the zip, 7zip will stop.

    So you have to extract it to a folder.
