Help with FOTRS ubermod, please...

...as I am either too old to understand "how to" or just plain stupid. But I just don't get it.

Got mint SH4+Uboat missions straight off Steam. Works with no problems.

I have downloaded FOTRS zip and I have hit a wall or a couple of walls, to be honest.

Firstly, I don't understand this http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=226270
"Reinstalling from scratch is the gold standard here. Uninstall and reinstall SH4. As always, documentation is available in the root and Data folders. Use JSGME to install, but first install Large Address Aware.exe. Files and instructions are in the mod. JSGME and MultiSH4 are also included with instructions. Put Large Address Aware, JSGME and MultiSH4 into your Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific directory. Run Large Address Aware, choosing SH4.exe as the file you want to be aware. Run JSGME and quit, then copy 100_FalloftheRisingSun_Ultimate_v0.81_RC1_EN.7z into your MODS directory and decompress it there with 7zip.exe, available online for free. Then run JSGME again and use it to install FOTRSU.

Got this far: reinstall SH4

OK, so I have downloaded the zip and I have unpacked it to desktop. Few folders there. Data, Extras and Support. "Extras" includes JSGME, laa, SH4CMS, multish4, 7z. There's also Readme there that doesn't say what to do step by step...

Can someone guide me through this?

What to do with DATA and SUPPORT folders?

Help, I'm sinking!

First post in 5 years, jeez I'm a lurker, sorry...
