ECE bomb [w/latest patch]

[Tom Emerson]

Drat!

I got tired of constantly getting "server refused to send the file ..." [after 
reaching 100% downloaded], so I decided to download the ECE pack to at least 
get some new maps.  I have the latest patch installed [or so the log says] 
and after un(B)zipping the file and copying over my installation, my startup 
log reads as such:

=======================================

I think I've seen a message regarding the "missing class Editor.TransBuffer" 
before (though I don't know if that's a problem if all you want to do is 
play, not edit maps...), but the one that torques me is "Critical: ReadFile 
beyond EOF 0+4/0" -- WHAT damn file did it try to read past the EOF?  Did 
something get corrupted along the way?  Could I try to find/repair the file?  
[like add four spaces to the end, so at the very least it won't crap out on 
EOF?  'course, those missing 4 bytes might hold something important and 
spaces weren't it :) ]

Looks like I'm off the player roster till this gets fixed -- I don't really 
want to go through the hassle of re-install / re-patch / re-patch / 
re-patch / re-patch..... until I'm back to "current" :(
