....and leads you to a 404-error. Now I know you probably try your best, but personally, I think that if even a simple readme can't be without errors, I'm very reluctant to let any install script have its way on my precious forum ;)

First of all, that readme doesn't even counts.......Since it is not called via Installing TP, so forget about that Readme, I don't even know how it got there.

Well sorry, but if I am about to install something that will have great impact on my forum, I look into the ZIP for install instructions. If anyone would just upload the thing and run the install php file, I'd say that's quite stupid. So if there's a README in the ZIP, I read it. If it's obsolete information, it shouldn't be in there.

But then again: I would be very suprised if the ZIP would not contain any install info at all.

This is as simple as installing any other SMF Mod.
You upload it via Package Manager and install it.

Yes, thanks, I found the instructions, I just wanted to point out that the README in the zipfile is outdated... Just as the topic says ;)
