Hi,

My first post here. Firstly, thanx for porting this game to the iPhone. I'm sure it's an awesome game. However, I've been having this problem in downloading the music to play with the game. I keep getting "Downloaded file does not appear to be a zip file..." I'm half-sure that I am the one doing something wrong, however I really have no idea on what to do from here.

Thanx for your help

It may be an obvious question, but have you tried many different beatmaps (not just one)? Also, what connection are you using on your iDevice to download? Might be good to try wifi if you aren't already, just because the files are relatively large.

thx for the fast reply, I have downloaded more than 5 different song files, even the one shown as an example which was EVO but all of them gave me the same error of it not being a zip file. I've tried both 3G and wifi to download them to no avail. Mine is Iphone 3G with 2.2 Firmware.

This map has been deleted on the request of its creator. It is no longer available.

May I ask when is the last time you updated the program?

I just downloaded and installed the game a few minutes ago. I'm guessing there is something wrong with the new version. Or I am indeed not installing a zip application that I need to play the program with.

Thanx a lot for your confirmation though.

Looks like a bug... I'll need to figure out how to reproduce it... The text looks different too, maybe there's an encoding issue (for instance if your iDevice uses unicode 2-byte characters instead of 1-byte characters or something)... In the meantime, you can work around the issue by downloading the file on your computer and extracting it, then copy that folder into the /var/mobile/Documents/osu/beatmaps folder.

Note: The unzipping library is built into the program so there are no external requirements for the feature.

On mine the text looks the same as any other dialog boxes that appear on the iPhone [not like the one in the screenshot]. Also, it seems as though the workaround isn't working. I copied the folders to var\mobile\Documents\osu\beatmaps as instructed, but the program doesn't seem to load them.


Mint137, are you *nix-literate? Could you do me a favor and SSH into the device? Let me know what these commands output:

Code:
cd /var/mobile
ls -l
cd Documents
ls -l
cd osu
ls -l
cd beatmaps
ls -l


I've got a theory and I want to see if it's true... Thanks!

As I suspected it's a permissions thing.

Try this. This should also help with downloading beatmaps:

Code:
chown mobile /var/mobile/Documents
chown -R mobile /var/mobile/Documents/osu
