smzip isn't a valid .zip archive??

I downloaded a .smzip pack, although when I try to open it with StepMania Tools, I get a message saying, "PACK is not a valid zip archive".
Does anyone know whats wrong?

It must not have been created as an smzip. The filename extension was probably changed.

Well I got that answered, but I need to know how to open it...

Try changing it to a .rar file or some other archive.

If that doesn't work, tell me what you downloaded.

Your file is corrupt. Redownload.

Right click and open with Winrar.

If the file is corrupt, redownloading might not help. I know one of the StepMania resource sites had the FoonMod+ theme on their site as an smzip, but the file itself was corrupt. That was a bit of a pain for me to deal with, until I realized what was going on. I don't remember where that was, though; it was awhile ago.

Stop speaking when everyone in the thread knows youre incorrect. SMZip files are normal zip files with a different extension.

Redownloading may help, as the internet corrupts data.

I'll try that.
