Downloaded file consistently empty

Hi y'all. First post.

I've never had issue downloading files from simviation, though while trying to download one particular file, it consistently comes out empty. Initially, on the downloads directory, it'll say it has a non-zero size, though when trying to extract, it says the file is invalid, and sometime after, the file does report being zero.

I attempted to download a different file instead and had no issue with it. Here's the file in question, a project airbus a319 texture:

I cleared my cache on my browser (firefox) and restarted. No good. The command prompt does indicate a few *s initially (which indicates where the problem is according to the FAQ), though the same *s appear for a different file and I am able to download it just fine.

Could the file just have become broken given it's 14 years old? Thanks!

I just tried to download the file using Chrome & IE, the file didn't download so has probably been corrupted or link broken.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm checking it out now and will fix -

As always this kind of feedback is appreciated as bad files are not what we are about.

Thank you. Will reply here when fixed.

EDIT: Fixed

Thanks y'all!

And so actually I'm a bit disappointed.... I download the file and all I see is everything except the textures. Not sure if there was some sort of other error involved, but otherwise, this file is pretty misleading and has everything except what I need. Oddly, it says "textures only" too.

Tragic, really I was only looking for those green IAE nacelles as I wanted to switch the color from a Vivaaerobus a321 from red to green.

Can you mention the particular file? (If you are real? )
