Ok, sorry for the delay but it's finally here: a major update.
 
So what's new? Almost the entirety of I Shall Never Forget mod has been rewritten! I wasn't happy with the previous state of the mod, so...this is the final fruit of my work. The mod is bigger, and the story is more complex and interesting. Here is the list of all changes:
 
-the mod has been almost entirely rewritten and includes many new features
-3 new areas, one of them accessible from the very beginning of the game- the Temple of Sune
-2 existent mod areas has been fixed/improved
-1 new store with some new items in Chapter 6; the number of new items: 12
-a very small quest/feature that provides the new temple with items later in game, in Chapter 6
-1 new song (Temple of Sune) also by Lunatic Soul
-expanded dialogues, new replies, new talks
-Ganimedes' betrayal has been cut; he can answer some of player's questions instead
-new creatures, mostly on the new areas
-few new bams, mostly from IWD and PST (item icons) + one brand new: the Sune's flag
-3 new spells (innate abillities); player may aquire just 2 (two of the three exclude eachother)
-slightly more balanced fights
-2 new cutscenes
-the passage to the Incomplete's chamber is not locked (until you get the task to find him)
-added ambient sounds to The Incomplete's area and the passage in the sewers
-changed the animations of: The Incomplete, Selene.
-updated portraits
-mod was traified
 
Check the gallery, as it has been upated, too.
 
Also, thanks to Silent, Aldark, Andreas, Austin, bro, both The White Queen and Innershade are available in Russian!
All three mods have been uploaded to SHS so...have fun!
 
Cheers!
Lava

The only one of the CoI mods l could get to work is Yvette, is there a problem with the rest?

[Lava Del'Vortel]

What do you mean that Yvette is the only one you could get to work? Got some errors? Couldn't download?

[Alboy]

Take for instance The White Queen the download is titled The White Queen v3%2e1 when l try to open it it says unexpected end of archive and alot of folders and files are missing, this happens to all Colours of Infinity apart from Yvette. Any help you could give would be appreciated.

[Lava Del'Vortel]

And what web browser do you use? After you sent the post I ask my friends to check if the mod can be downloaded and yeah -- none of them had a single problem. It is possible that you're using outdated web browser or something. If it's not that, I suppose we would need to ask the admin.

Is anyone else having the same problem?

I downloaded The White Queen, Innershade and ISNF and have no problem to unzip the files.

I use Firefox with XP, and 7zip to unzip.

l use Internet Explorer 8 as l have Windows XP SP3, l also use Winrar 4.20 for downloading.

[Lava Del'Vortel]

Have you possibly tried any other web browser?

[Gwendolyne]

IE 8 works fine for downloading SHS files with my netbook. So I don't think IE 8 is the problem.

 

But I am running Windows 7...

[Lava Del'Vortel]

Ok, thanks So it seems we may still need one of the admins to answer the question

[Alboy]

What l cannot understand is why Yvette worked fine with Internet Exporer 8 but none of the other mods.

Edited by Alboy, 09 May 2013 - 04:00 AM.

[Lava Del'Vortel]

Neither do I But seriously, there are just some stuff normal people can't understand As you can see, there's nothing wrong with the links/files as other users can download them without a single problem. As I said already, I'm not an admin and I just don't have a single clue what would help. I myself would use a different browser (which you can delete later)...

I'd just check that you got the correct file by doing file-size and checksum testing.

21.440.568 - e6e07778b65c41dbe8e1b874fe9dffc8 -The White Queen v3.1.zip
17.137.013 - 26c3de3116f42fc19c573446d252437e - I Shall Never Forget v3.0.zip
32.836.601 - 8d7780a74a38562349c74edea352da89 - Innershade v6.0.zip

[Kaeloree]

Can you please try another, more recent browser? I can download it fine using IE 8, but give a recent version of Chrome, Safari or Firefox a shot.

[Alboy]

l can download them ok but they will not open correctly. l use Winrar 4.20.

[dabus]

Can you verify the files checksum?

You can download a checksum-tool from [here.
Drop it into the same folder as the files, open the command and let the tool calculate the checksum of the files, e.g. md5sum.exe "The White Queen v3.1.zip". If the checksum is the same as above, the problem is not the download but the tools that open it (or the system doing something funny). I'd also test if 7zip can extract those files.
