I have a question of the GFO TT guys. I was trying to download some of the excellent German stadiums from the sight the other night. They downloaded...but showed up as .rar files (?), not as regular zips. Can I convert them to regular zips? or will they only work with FIFAFX...which I can't install, because my computer won't import the .big files (I get a "cannot find gils.exe" message) from the FIFA2002 disk?

Anyways, I love your work, wish I could do more with it. Hopefully with a little help from you, I can. Graymanna has been trying to help me out on the grafix problem (thanks a bunch)...don't know if I quite understand what he's telling me yet...but I continue to noodle around.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

hi, just download winrar from any site(download.com) and for the problem you have, are you sure you fully installed fifa2002? you should reinstall it and try again. have luck!!! :)

as hakem already mentioned WinRar is a compression tool similar to WinZip, as it reaches higher compression the Files will be smaller to Download, thats why we use it more often than WinZip !

You can DL it from www.rarsoft.com.

I guess I dont really understand your second problem.
The FifaFX installation is just an executable Winrar file. it needs no *.big -files and nothing from CD.

Of course you need to have a FULL Fifa2002 installation on your Harddisk !!!
Just check if there is a speech.str file in your Fifa2002\data\audio\spc -folder.

If not install Fifa2002 again and choose USERDEFINED installation where you check ALL boxes ;)

I knew I could count on you Bolzer! You too, Hakeem! Now that's customer service! I'll get to your suggestions right away. I'm a little dense with this stuff, so I want to reserve the right to ask more stupid questions.
Thanks again!

its no problem, I too have a lot of stupid questions, nut we have to make them if we want to become great editors that bolzer (he's the best):D
