Did you use the free/advertised download? Then you need to download all 3 RAR files into the same directory.

Did you use the payed single file download or the free multi-zip download?

In latter case, you need to download all 3 parts into the same directory, and then just open/extract part 1. This will combine all 3 parts automatically.

I've got the same problem. I use the payed version and have the newest version of winRAR.
It keeps saying that the file unexpectedly ended. Any help would be appreciated

Please upgrade you WinRAR or try to use 7zip.

Can I just add here that, yes, you do have to download all 4 parts of the multipart archive. We get people asking for help who "can hear the thunderstorm in Cologne" as we say over here, i.e. they had no clue they had to download all parts of a multipart archive in order to make it work. Don't be one of those people, please.

Yes, you do not need to extract part 4 or 3 or 2. Just put all the parts in the same folder, and extract part 1. 7zip will combine the 4 parts into one, and give you all the files you need. (Except the DEF-file, but you need to download that file in step one of the setup ;) )

We do have a tutorial which is quite clear on how to install ProMods. http://www.promods.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3852

Multi-part .zip and .rar files have been around for close to twenty years now, one would think folks would be used to them now... ;)
