Re: pictures of horses and background picture? OK, instead of extracting directly into the game, just unzip the files into a temporary folder on your desktop, and then drag them into your C>program files>SO5>gfx>portraits folder once you have located it.

Right, I'm off to bed - if you can't find it now St Nick, then there's no hope for you - good luck mate!!!  _________________ Shergar - unstoppable and always the best. |

Go to where it says "Computer", and double click... inside there, you should have your C drive (on Windows 7, it's called "OS (C:)". |

Re: pictures of horses and background picture? you have to unzip the files out of the zip file with a zip program (winzip or other)
Then place the individual unziped files in the appropriate Starters Orders 5 folders... |
