unzipping player made levels?
thank's to all the helpful info on here iv'e just managed to complete order of the flame [:D] so thought i'd try some of the player made level's , i have created new folder's within the drakan file with the level name i.e snowy in the mountain world so the file has somewhere to go but when i try to unzip it there i get an access is denied message. not sure what i'm doing wrong ? so any advice would be appreciated .
Is the level you are unzipping a self extracting .zip (.exe) or just a normal .zip file? If you are using a self extracting one that error will appear if the directory already exists. Self extractors should unzip in the correct place without having to create a folder first. Most levels come with installation readme files - if you are on Vista / 7 open the .zip file in windows first to see the readme. If on XP unzip to a temp folder and copy to correct place.
Also if you are using Vista / Windows 7 try running it as an administrator. What are your system specs?

i'm on windows 7 64bit with intel(r) prentium(r) cpu . i'm not very technically minded so not sure if that helps [:I] but have tried extracting from my downloads rather than winrar and i seem to have gained 10 new levels when i start up so must've done something right [:)] but wouldn't have had a clue without you pointing me in the right direction [;)]. there is still some levels that haven't appeared but i'l have another try tomorrow ( up for work at 5 [:0] ) thanks for your help A.T [:D]
