Hi. I am a newly joined member of the site, so sorry if this is in the wrong place. I am very interested in LunaLUA and very much want to mess with it. However, whenever I try to download the file, it consistently gets to like 30-something MBs and suddenly finishes with a corrupted zip file. What am I doing wrong?!

Did you open it with 7zip?

I have Win Zip...it works for everything I have needed it for before this. Is the download supposed to suddenly finish around 30 of 85 MBs?

Sounds like your file is damaged. 2.0 is bundled with this though, so try that.
Or you can try downloading again. I cannot help any further though.

So i just tried to download this file on the site, and I got the same problem its gets to about 35 mb and then download crashes... does anyone have a new download on this file or have a fileshare with the files I could download. Or if there is an admin could you update this link and input a new download file?

This thread does NOT have a download link to 2.0. It has a link to the repository for the LunaLua extension, but you will be missing out features and have a harder time installing it if you get it from here.

Try this website: http://horikawaotane.com/smbx

If you already have 2.0, you don't need to download LunaLua. It comes packaged with it.

I don't have room for the 500 MBs right now, lol. I just want to know why there is a post that says "look no further than here!" When the files are corrupt/invalid

If you already have 2.0, you don't need to download LunaLua. It comes packaged with it.
Also I meant "wasn't" not "want". Sorry for the confusion

First off, the files aren't invalid. If you don't have space on your computer for 2.0, you're probably going to have issues elsewhere too. Your computer needs storage space to function, and it's possible it's just not getting enough to perform the download. Either that or your connection is shoddy.

Secondly, this thread predates 2.0, back when LunaLua was a separate thing. It's still being offered as a separate download to solve some specific issues some people are having, and so people can try out experimental features, but fundamentally, 2.0 is where you should be getting this from. If you don't want to keep all of 2.0 on your disc, you can just delete a few of the included episodes when you've finished the download.

There is an ongoing debate about whether or not there should be a lightweight 2.0 version posted up that does not contain the included episodes, but so far I don't believe anything has been decided.

So you downloaded them within the last 24 hours without a single problem?! That is what I am asking, my friend.

Every time I download it from wohlsoft.ru/LunaLua/ like it says to at the beginning of this thread, the download suddenly finishes(something I have never seen happen before) and if you double-click it an error box saying "The compressed (zipped) folder is invalid or corrupted(another thing that I don't see very often." AND if I right-click and select extract with 7zip, 7zip opens and begins extracting the compressed files only to say "ERROR Unexpected end of file." I have like 5 freaking copies of LunaLUA_0.7.3.1-beta_smbxluna_sfx_mus_full in my recycle bin from trying over and over!

And I downloaded 2.0 in one shot and extracted the files just fine, so the fact that wohlsoft.ru/LunaLua/ repetivively does this when 2.0 was 2x the size, AT LEAST!, doesn't seem like trouble on my end.

The "corrupted" thing clearly comes from the download stopping early, meaning you only have half the file (hence the "unexpected end of file" error). Why it's doing that I'm not sure, but since you are the only person to have this issue, I'm pretty sure it's not the file that is the problem.
