I downloaded MS to my computer. Then went back to download the patch (MSUpgrade.exe) and the MS level editor (MSLevSet.exe). When I try to unzip these 2 files I get the message; "Can't create output file: C:\Program Files\Core Concepts\Mad Scientist\Mad Scientist.exe
Are you just overjoyed that I am back on the RD/MS boards?:D

You actually do not need the MSUpgrade. That program was only needed by people who had the original Mad Scientist. When we came out with the upgrade, we also fixed the Mad Scientist download, so if you have downloaded the MS anytime in the last couple of years, you don't need the upgrade.
I just tried the MSLevSet program and it seemed to work fine (after answering Vista's questions about permissions). Please note that the Level Set installers only work after the game itself is installed. Try the Level Set installer again and let me know what happens. Thanks!

OK...However the Editor is not accepting my list of Authorization Codes. I get the message:
Invalid Authorization Code
The authorization code you entered was not the correct code for this machine. Please recheck your typing and try again.

Run the Level Set installer again. On the page where it is asking for your Authorization Code, it will list the Version Key for your computer. Make sure this is the same Version Key you sent us to get your code. BTW, don't post your codes here on the message board, as this is a public forum. Send your Version Key to bob and he will send the Authorization Code.
One thing to check: you were using the MSLevSet, not the RDLevSet, right?

I know my Version Key is correct and I printed out my list of authorization codes on October 11 of this year. And yes...I am using the MSLevSet. I'll send Bob my Version Key tomorrow. Thanks, as usual, for your help.
