Truck Dismount Portable (it works)

Truck Dismount is a game made by Rekkaturvat and is available in non-portable version at www.jet.ro/dismount/ . It is liscenced under Creative Commons, and complies with the portable apps launch menu.

Download is 2.6 MB
Program is 3.7 MB
http://portable.cubegames.net/truckdismount
*Thanks to Ryan McCue for hosting*

Go to the menu of Portable Apps, and select Options
Select "Install Portable App," and point it to the .paf.exe file.
To run, go to the Portable Apps folder where all the Apps' data is held, and click "truckdismountPotable" then run that portable.exe or to work from the menu, read below.

The following is to get it to work from the menu.
------------------
After it finished extracting, you will need to go to the Portable Apps folder where all the files are kept. Open "truckdismountPortable."
After that, to make Truck Dismount Portable work from the menu, you will need to copy the "truckdismount.dat" file to where the "StartPortableApps.exe" is. (what you click to start the menu)
Finally, you can now run it from the menu seamlessly.
ALSO: Scores.dat will be held here once run.

Program made by Rekkaturvat
Portable Program ported by Dormedas with aid from rmccue and thibeaz .

Yep

PHP is choking on a missing file.

No such file or directory in /home/cubesnet/public_html/portable/truckdismount.php on line 27

Same problem here

I'm having the same problem. In my case (bet yours is the same) the downloaded file is "somewhat" corrupted. It has a wrong md5 sum value, and if you look at the exe you'll realize it's not a valid one. The file beginning is a piece of html code, so I tried to remove it, from byte 0 to the typical exe magical word: MZ. The resulting file can be executed and shows the usual 7zip decompression window, but when trying to extract I get a "not supported archive" message.

I had the same problem with other apps downloaded from Cube Games.

Edit: WTF? I'll fix that ASAP.

No, I'm using XP Prof.
I'm gonna send you "RDtools.zip" (just downloaded) cause it has the same problem and it's smaller size.

It isn't just those two

It isn't just those two apps, all the portable apps on the site are giving me the same issue.

Strange

You said it works but I can't play with this because when I click on it, it's like a dos program. Sorry but I tested it on windows 98, windows Xp and on Linux.

Just to clarify

It's a problem with my site and a download counter.
I believe my version of PHP is incompatible with this script.
Fear not, for I shall fix it soon!
Edit: Fixed:

  • Good news:
    • I found a solution!
    • I have fixed the TruckDismount page!
  • Bad news:
    • All my portable pages have to be updated manually Sad Or not.

Cannot open data

Cannot open data storage!
Missing file: truckdismount.dat
You may need to reinstall the application.

After it finished extracting, you will need to go to the Portable Apps folder where all the files are kept. Open "truckdismountPortable."
After that, to make Truck Dismount Portable work from the menu, you will need to copy the "truckdismount.dat" file to where the "StartPortableApps.exe" is. (what you click to start the menu)
Finally, you can now run it from the menu seamlessly.
ALSO: Scores.dat will be held here once run.

Did you maybe move instead of copy?
