The .zip is missing MQ2FPS and MQ2HUD. Anyone else notice this?

I have the same problem. It says it can't find MQ2FPS.dsp, and MQ2HUD.dsp. I look in the directory structure and the directories are missing has well.

I delete the entire directory structure of previous versions prior to unzipping the new zip file. I also overwrite the old zip with the new zip.
I mean, if the previous version is going to be rendered inop whenever a patch goes live, why keep it. Additionally, when new people discover Macroquest and download it and try to compile and get those errors, there going to come here and complain about it. It's best just to fix the zip file instead of telling me how to get around it....no flame intended here.

I have done the same thing as well. I deleted the old directory then downloaded the newest .zip, overwriting the old one. Only to find is was a 1K text file telling me there was no new version yet.

I'm using the Windows extractor... turns out it has turned into a PoS. Using WinZip and my problem is fixed, Hehe.
