Splitting downloads and working with multi-part zip volumes

Prev Next

This article covers creating split downloads in Logikcull and extracting multi-part archives using 7-Zip

Logikcull allows you to split large downloads into chunks for easier transfer of large productions. Multi-part (or split) zip volumes are easily identified by their ".zip.001" or ".z01" extensions.

💡 Before starting, make sure you have access to a robust zipping tool (such as 7zip or Winzip for Windows, or Keka for Mac).

Splitting Logikcull Downloads into multi-part zips

When a Logikcull Download exceeds 4GB in size, you have the option to split it into a multi-part archive. This is done to make downloading from Logikcull to your computer more manageable. Each part of the archive can be split up into 4GB, 10GB, or 20GB chunks.

Step 1: Select a Partition Download Size

Step 2: Download all parts of your split zip archive

All files in the archive sequence (zip, z01, z02, etc.) must be downloaded and stored in the same folder to extract the contents of the Download.

Step 3: Deliver all parts of your split zip together

All parts of the split zip files must be stored in the same folder to be extracted successfully. If sending this Download to outside parties, ensure all parts of the archive are included in the transfer.
