Need Help with Parallel Universe Install

I have tried to install parallel universe and every time that I un-rar the 11 files into the privateer directory and each time either 3 or 4 files show up as errors and I can never find the setup batch file...

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong; rar software that I use is win-rar for U3(portable thumbdrive version: same as the main version)

It says the they are not rar files that's why it cannot extract them...

I can see that other people are playing this mod so I'm sure that I'm doing something wrong...

Can anyone help me with this issue???

If so thanks a ton...

Hi, I use 7zip...
http://www.7-zip.org/

You have to
  • download the file into your main (usually /privateer) folder,
  • Right click on the file and say Extract Here, and overwrite all
  • Then run setup.bat
HTH

If you just Extract, instead of Extract Here, it will create a folder and throw the files in that folder, which is not good.

Thanks
