The toast image for Panzer General is missing the resource fork. Does anyone know what the creator and type codes are for a hybrid toast image?
Thanks,
Doug

Hybrid Toast Image

When using Toast 10, this is:
Type: GImg
Creator: CDr3
I hope this is valid for other versions of Toast, too.

Thanks, I was using CDr3 with HImg and got the same result. That is, the image can be mounted in Toast but only the "PC" part. The Mac part is missing. As I didn't see any comments about this in the Panzer General page I figured I was mounting it wrong, but now I suspect maybe the file is corrupt on the server (I've downloaded it several times on several machines and OSes).

@Doug M: Don't knock yourself out re-downloading this file. It appears to be damaged. The .sit on the megaupload site seems to be OK, but the damage is to the Mac part of the hybrid ".toast" file itself, which fails to get re-created. Stuffit gets to the damaged area and gives up with some "possibly corrupt" error message and fails to extract the Mac part of the hybrid.
This game needs to be re-created from scratch by someone with a good copy and re-uploaded. And preferably tested as extracting correctly before uploading.

Could be something in your findings, for apps / games I used to test Stuffit on the Toast image I created. For some of the images Stuffit would appear to compress OK, but choke on the uncompress. So in those cases - and where the compression saved little space - I'd upload the uncompressed Toast image. I never realised that there may be some corellation between hosed Stuffit'd images and hybrid discs.
