Title: Hair files from Peggy that end in .exe
Post by: Damsel13 on May 06, 2008, 04:24:00 pm
Well after I downloaded about 40 meshes and colors something in the back of my head said -.exe - files don't work on the mac. They did not show up in the game. Is there anything I can do to make them compatible?

Thanks in advance,
Debbie

I only have PC myself, but the downloaded files should have the ending .package.
.exe is something else, if I'm not mistaken.

.exe and .package files both work for me, just put them into your downloads folder and it will appear in-game. (the .exe files are little gray boxes, right?)

.exe files are executible files, meaning when you click on them it starts a program or opens something.

I just renamed the files to .zip and unzippped them in the usual way. Worked fine for me.

same for me. I wish all exe files were so easy to convert as a lot of good stuff is packaged that way for pc.

The .exe thing that happens with peggy files is an error, for PC-users they come up as normal .zip files. No-one knows by, but it's just to rename them and then you can unzip them normally.
