Does anyone remember how to unzip the SOO Line Asset files. I'm doing something wrong??? Cannot do it. I get a "The same volume can't be used in the source and destination" Error??? Please Help. I'm trying to gather all the Assets required to Run the Roaring Camp Scenario. I've actually been on the Roaring Camp Big Trees Scenic Railroad many years ago. Thanks.

I'm not failure with the package you are trying to unzip but did you try unzipping it to your desktop?

1- Extract the files from the zip archive to your desktop.
2- Run the "Utilities" program in your Railworks program folder (Steam\SteamApps\Common\Railworks) (you should make a shortcut for this)
3- In the Package Manager, browse to each rwp package on your desktop and install it.

I cannot Install using the packager until I "UnZip" the archive. Unzip will not work. I also tried using 7z and I get an error "cannot open file 'C:\SOO LINE ASSETS.zip' as archive. EyeIn12 said I must have all 3 files in the same directory and he gave me a password (which I used) but I cannot UnZip this file. I've downloaded it 3 times incase I have a bad file with no joy. Please Help.

Obviously there's something wrong with the zip file itself.
Does the error message provide more details?

Are you trying to unzip a set of zip files like this: freeware assets1.(zip; z01 & z02)?

Problem Solved
You have to use the old WinZip. Nothing else will work. Thanks for everybody's help.

OK I am having the same issues with the z01 and z02 asset files. I cannot upzip them with Winzip,Winrar or 7zip. They all say corrupted files and I have re-downloaded them a few times. Help!

For some reason I have gotten used to unpackaging the rwp. file with WinRAR and manually placing the assets where they go. I had the same issue with the (zip; z01 & z02), I had to talk to eyein12 for awhile for him to explain
