I am not having any luck with this update file. It's just vexing me.

This is the error I keep getting.

XML parsers do not like non-white space. What I mean by this is that tabs or strange ASCII characters are a no go. :(

In this case the text editor you used inserted "TAB" characters into this XML. First step is delete all those by deleting the spacing you have in front of each element. Then make sure to only use the space bar to add in any future spaces. :)

I fixed it up quick using TextPad as I have it set to auto remove tabs and replace with spaces. I have it attached to this post. Its all I am currently seeing as wrong. Give it a try and see...

Note change the extension back to .xml as .txt was the only way it would let me attach it.

I tried with that modified xml and it still gives me errors. I made sure to change the Dropbox url to the new file in case that was the problem and still error. I think I am just not meant to have an update xml. I can not find any odd ASCII symbols or random blank spaces. So I must just have a faulty setup. Do I need anything special for the link themselves?

Crazy question, but which editor are you using for XML?

Notepad++ and some other editors support XML files natively, rather than basic Windows Notepad which sometimes doesn't do things properly.
 
I found it and I tested with my dropbox this time to make 100% sure.

The top of your XML must look "exactly" like this:
Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<document signature="Lone Wolf Updates" version="1">
Some how you removed the signature which is VERY important as that tells HL which type of file it is reading.

Change the top of your document to match the above. Once I did that your file started to work and I could download your .hl files.

OMG, I looked at that like 3 times and it did not click in... I feel dense.

Seems to be working for me now though. Thanks for the assistance.
