I download the Masterblazer .LHA file from the UnExoticA. But it's like the "Dynamite Dux" one.

What should I do? All my options are O.K.

Neither this nor other archives on Exotica are corrupted (I hope...). Use an unpacker with better LhA support. WinRAR 3.20 (and later) works if you use Windows. Just tested this archive with it.

This is a recurring question and apparently a problem for many. Hey Buzz, maybe it's time to abandon LhA and step into the 21st centu... right. Filenotes. Sorry.

I don't have words to describe....

Unpack it before playing it. Otherwise it's impossible to know if you have a problem with the archive, or with your TFMX player, or both.

...and please make sure you are using the latest players from Don Adan / Wanted Team as the TFMX format has a new replayer than that bundled with DeliPlayer. That will be the reason why it recognised the format but thinks that it is corrupt...

Bad players aren't a good enough reason to stop using the LhA format.

DeliPlayer and XMPlay seem to handle LhA archives well enough - but it's up to the person using the software to make sure they have the latest replayers installed - and I believe with the replayers archive I put together, I've made it very easy for someone to do this...

Or maybe I haven't?
