How to fix corrupted files:

Corrupt TAR Files:
If you receive a corrupt file when decompressing a .TAR file, try getting the file from the same bot to ensure the file was completely sent.
If you still receive a corrupt file when decompressing a .TAR file, try to get the file from another bot.

Corrupt .001, .RAR, or .ZIP files:
1) Open the archive in 7zip or Winrar.
2) Click the test button to test the archive for errors.

3) If there are more than 5 files that are corrupt, try to get the pack from a different bot or the same bot if the pack you received is not on another bot.
4) If there are 5 files or less, you can get the files from #incomplete. See below on how to do that.

Missing Files:

If you have 5 missing or corrupt files, you can request the individual files from #incomplete.

1) Join #incomplete on irc.criten.net.
2) Read the rules on their website before making any file requests.
3) The syntax command to request files is: !request filename.rar / Description of release.
