Having a problem loading an OAR

Post by Drew Hunter-K »

As you may remember from the last two days, Jewel Hunter has been trying to upload an OAR file to the new 4x4 region she bought, with no luck. Balpean from Discovery grid made her OAR of her store Smithville she is trying to move over here. As a test Balpean reloaded the OAR on a text 6x6 region and it all loaded and came back with no problem. The problem exactly: we go to manage my words and go to the files tab and properly point to the oar on her local computer, the window show that it found the file, we named test.oar then when you press "Replace World" an error window pops up asking to load an OAR first (i cant recall the exact message) but in essence it does not see the test.oar that was just picked in the button above. The OAR is around 7 gigs . Is that file too big for the utility to handle?????? Can we have you manually try and upload the OAR by Hand for her new region???? Maybe you will see an error message that will help up see why we can load it on Discovery but Not here????? Please contact me if you can. I am an old computer and network tech from wayback. Her not so much.
I also copied her OAR to my local computer and tried to load it on my 4x4 and got the same error message she got.
The OAR came from a 6x6 but from what I can tell it should lay down on a 4x4 and just chop off all object that lay outside the 4x4 boundery. That would be fine, The build would only miss a little on one edge. We can rebuild that.

Thank You.
Jewel and Drew Hunter.

Please PM me a dropbox or google drive share from which we can download the file.

What web browser (not viewer) are you using and have you tried this with other browsers as well?
