Hi Flob
Went to drive your activity tonight and when I unpacked the file I got the following error message Expected more files Package damaged Can you have a look at this and post an answer up in the forum.

I got this when packaging my activity (not quite finished). It's all to do with the NEWENG/FUDE folder names and it was mentioned in another thread.
Incidently Alan, the problems I was having with Weedkiller and Fast Passenger is related to this, although I'm still trying to rectify the problem.

I have sent an e-mail to Flob. I think he needs to change the name of his FUDE folder to Neweng and then re-pack and re-upload the activity.

Hi guys -
I'm upset at all the bother this has caused - and being honest , its all above my head :oops:
The activity was created on a default install of fude 1.1 . The readme on the patch for version 1.2 would indicate to rename the route folder to FUDE1_2 . As this activity was created on version 1.1 I'm guessing its going to want to unpack into the fude1_1 directory.
I would be really keen to hear from anyone who has got this to work !
In the meantime , I'm a little foxed as all I have used is default installs etc. :cry:
37413 - what is the folder name of your fude route out of interest?

Hi Flob.
The answer is NEWENG that is the proper route ID for F.U.D.E. If you rename your route folder to that and upgrade to V1.2 that should do the trick. Will keep my fingers crossed you get it sorted out.
Regards.
Alan.

Hello Flob

I'm sorry about the problem that occurred with your activity - it wasn't anything you did. The error occurs when the Route ID doesn't match the name of the route folder, something which I changed when I was building the route without realising the implications.

This is a problem that only affects Activity Creators when using the packaging function - it doesn't affect downloaders and route users.

Sorry once again

Best wishes

Right. I've patched to 1.2 , and then renamed the folder to neweng , remade the activity (fingers crossed) and repackaged.
That sounding good?
A beta is now with Bob Latimer , and hopefully , we've got it cracked !
If you can see anything wrong with that process , do shout at me !
Many thanks to you all :fadein:

Good news. The modified version works and can be uploaded.

Pete, don't feel too bad - you're in good company - several authors had the same problem when the folder name didn't match the Routeid, including some of the best (who shall remain nameless)!

Good news
