What am I doing wrong?

I created a page, followed the instructions, tried to upload the file and nothing. The page refuses to allow me to add the zip file, telling me that only zip files can be uploaded.

It would be great if I could have all my games here, but I am cursed. First I upload them and they get lost, and now this.

:o :@_@ :sigh :cry

I'm sorry this is happening to you, but thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Can you attach the files in a post here so I can try to upload it myself? It's supposed to detect the filetype before allowing an upload to save you from uploading a huge file and then it not being allowed.

I need to see what's going on with it.

Well, okay, I made a test page for "Final Evil Warrior 2013". I wasn't going to make another one until I was sure everything was hunky-dory.

Here's the files. Let me know when things are working and I'll upload more.

What browser are you using? I'm guessing you're using Chrome?

I have made a change to the codebase and you shouldn't have any problems uploading now.

In any case, I have taken those files and uploaded them using IE, FF and Chrome and it should be good now. Please let me know if it's still an issue.

Using FF. And, same issue. Although, now it waits for me to press "Save". Not sure it was doing that before.

You are sure I'm not cursed, right? :evil

Nah, yet another bug was found in the code. Hopefully it should be good now. I additionally took the step of personally uploading the files you posted to your Game Page.

Thanks for being a good sport about these problems.

Still no change on my end. I created a page for "Swords & Sorcerers" and as soon as I try to save, it says that only zip files can be uploaded. It is a zip file, and I am confused.

Oh, FEW is a Full game.

I've made the change for your game in the Vault.

This problem has me seriously perplexed. Can you give me the following information:

Operating System
Browser and Version
Program you used to zip the file

Windows XP (Pro) SP3
FireFox 25.0.1
The one where you right-click and are given the option to zip. In other words, I have no idea. How do I figure this one out?

Ah, you're using the Windows XP default zip function? The system may not be able to detect that.

Okay, please do this for me:

Go to this site: http://mime.ritey.com/
Browse for your file.
Submit the query.

Copy and paste what comes up. It should look like:

Quote:
File results
The MIME type for your file is: application/x-rar-compressed

Hope this helps.

If this doesn't work for some reason, could I just create pages for my games and upload them to a post? That worked fine before.

Thanks.

That mimetype is already in the system for this, so I have no clue what the issue is currently.

But yeah, you can go ahead and just create the pages for the game for now. I'll throw them up when I see 'em.

I'm going to keep looking into the issue. What I'm probably going to do is just take out the check and allow the uploads.

P.S. I've added those files.

I put your games up on the DOL page. Thanks for helping me find those errors.

For being such a good sport, I'll put two of your games on the RMVault Featured Feed. Choose which two you want and provide a screenshot for each and I'll handle the rest.

By the way, you need to publish Swords and Sorcerers and DOL's game pages.

Both are published now, thanks!

As for which games, I'll pick two once I have some screenshots first.

They'll probably be: Defenders Of Light - Complete (10th Anniversary Edition), and Mini-Game RPG 2014 (which isn't uploaded yet).

--> EDIT <--

The above games are my choice. This weekend I'll work on some screenshots to upload.

Thank again!

Screenshots for DoL - Complete are now up.

Thank you for the help, and feel free to add the DoL page to the Featured Feed.

Awesome! :D
