Default Greywolves install question

Ok, I see where to download the six parts for the Greywolves mod, plus the update making seven parts total. I have JSGME properly installed on a vanilla SH3 with the 1.4B update.

Let's say I download the first part of Greywolves, is there any special downloading program I need like winrar? Just messing around I downloaded one part and it said it was a type 7Z, but the files was only one part. Wasn't there supposed to be a data file somewhere? Where do I download the first and subsequent other parts to? Make a greywolves folder on my desktop? Finally, when I make a greywolves folder in my mods folder do I have any subfolders in the greywolve one.

Thanks for your patience.

Download the "ReadMe First" file, it will explain everything.

You have to download ALL six parts from the original mod
then extract each one of the parts (you can find 7zip here, it's freeware http://www.7-zip.org/ or use winrar if you have it).
Once you hve extracted all the parts make a GW folder, and then copy all the data diretories contained in each part to the GW directory you just created, when it asks you to overwrite existing data say yes, the only thing overwriten is the directory structure.
Obnce you made this copy the GW folder to the mods folder in your sh3 directory , also there's a folder with docs and aditional mods, copy the subdirectories in it to the mods folder in sh3. If you downloaded the 1.1 update extract files and copy them to the mods folder.
Once you made this all you need to do is enable the modes via JSGME, GW first, then GW update and then any adicional mods you want.

The 32-bit or x64 7-zip file manager?
