Cant download the Zoneinfo.xml file!!! Stuck at sewers with several ch

[misterfox]

In a previous thread called \"Sector not loaded. 0.3.013. Upadater or not.\" ,Colin Naphtess asked what to do with this \"Sector not loaded\" problem. (when you enter certain zones..like the sewers at Hydlaa).
DaveG gave him a link to download a zoneinfo.xml file.Now that link is my problem: When i click the link it goes to a page and at the top of the page is the text:
        \"This XML file does not appear to have any style information
        associated with it. The document tree is shown below.\"

... Is that normal or is it not? in case it is\'nt,please help me then :-) I really need that file...!!!

grtz

pps: this is the link DaveG gave Colin: http://www.psmirror.org/psupdater/data/data/zoneinfo.xml

You should have a way to download it instead of opening in the browser. I\'m not a Mac user so I have no idea how, but on Linux I can right-click on the link and select \"Save link as...\" from the menu. Otherwise it will try to show it in the browser and that\'s not what you want.

If you are really stuck somewhere, you can type either /unstick and that may get you out of the mess you are in or if that does not work typing /die will get you to
the Death Realms.

Yes  i have tested the sewers twice and crashed out after being told the sector was
not loadable.  

So I did a search and found:

Run the updater, your game needs a new version of the zoneinfo.xml file.

But I am told rather recently the updater is not working for us Mac guys.

Yes, Mac guys have a special status here and can\'t use the updater That\'s why the direct link to the broken file was given. The issue that Misterfox had was that when he clicks on the file, it is loaded into the web browser window without any options to save it.

You as a Mac guy could help him out by telling, how could that file be downloaded and saved instead of showing in the browser window.

That link does work, your just not working it correctly.
Go to the link, ignore the message and ctrl+click.  Save as and then replace the  zoneinfo.xml file in your Planeshift data folder.  The sewers are now open, they have very very little in the way of light but they work so you can get out.
Happy hunting.

1. Please DO NOT use the updater until dfryer or Chaos say you can.

2. As for your problem: ctrl + click on the link and choose the \"Download Linked File\" option from the contextual menu that pops up.
Then replace the zoneinfo.xml file in /Planeshift3d/data with the file you just downloaded.
You are done

thank you Bereror and Aznakh.  I replaced the xml file as you said and now
i can get into the darken sewers.  Boy, are they dark.  I even checked my Mac display settings and they were already set for PS levels.  Now I may have to die to get out, myself.

There is another file that you can download:

http://www.psmirror.org/psupdater/art/art/world/lighting.xml

Download it and then replace the lighting.xml file in /art/world with the downloaded file. It should add some ambient lighting to the sewers map.

The zoneinfo link doesn\'t work for me.  I know how to right-click-save.  It just doesn\'t download for me.

Try this one.

Thanks, all is well.  No sound, but it loads.
