Hi PGH60, you don't need to unzip the bin files, the installer will do that for you, read the following file instructions and if you do exactly what it tells you to do, it will install the Route in your MSTS Route Folder.

Are you sure - the Readme says:PGH60 wrote:I have downloaded all the files and done everything the readme tells me but when i click on this file to intstall it i get a message saying.

Download to a temporary folder:
UKTS_16458_Looe_rsetup.zip
UKTS_16459_Looe_rsetup-1.zip
UKTS_16460_Looe_rsetup-2.zip
UKTS_16461_Looe_rsetup-3.zip
UKTS_16462_Looe_rsetup-4.zip
Unzip these 5 files to produce
Looe_rsetup.exe
Looe_rsetup-1.bin
Looe_rsetup-2.bin
Looe_rsetup-3.bin
Looe_rsetup-4.bin
Did you rename the five files before running the .exe?

You don't need to rename them as Bin files - in fact I shouldn't have mentioned renaming.
As the readme says, you need to extract the contents of all the zip files to a folder, which should give you these five files:
Looe_rsetup.exe
Looe_rsetup-1.bin
Looe_rsetup-2.bin
Looe_rsetup-3.bin
Looe_rsetup-4.bin
Then you double-click the .exe to run it - if your operating system is Vista you will probably have to run the .exe as an Adminstrator.
You do the same with the stock install files.

Re: LOOE BRANCH
When you first unzip the downloaded files, you have to make sure that all the following unzipped files are in the same folder.
Looe_rsetup.exe
Looe_rsetup-1.bin
Looe_rsetup-2.bin
Looe_rsetup-3.bin
Looe_rsetup-4.bin
Then double click the exe. this will install the Looe Route to your Routes Folder of MSTS. Note: You must have all the above files in the same folder, as the exe file takes all the bin files with it, when it installs the Route.
Bin files can be a bit misleading to the beginner, but as long as all the unzipped bin files for the route are unzipped to the same folder, together with the exe, you will be able to install the route.

Re: LOOE BRANCH
After you have unzipped all the 5 downloads to My Doccuments. Open a new Folder inside your, My Documents Folder. Then cut & paste the opened files into this new folder. You should have 4 bin files and the exe, which looks like a zip file. Click on this zip(exe) and it will automatically bring the 4 bin files over with it and put the Looe route folder into your MSTS Routes Folder.
