Paranoia XP extension posted to wiki.

Many thanks. I did fix it and also altered it slightly to replace the 'High Alert' skill with 'Scam Radar' to reflect the change in the latest published version by Mongoose.

This will work until an updated version is put up. Change the .ext to .zip and extract the contents somewhere. Go into the folder it extracted and make those files contained into a ZIP (with WinZip, WinRar, 7Zip, etc you can just select them both, right click and choose "Add to Archive" or something similar.)

Then rename the .zip to .ext and place it into your extensions folder.

What I tend to do (if I think I want to hack around with it), is after I unzip to a folder is move that folder to the extensions that way (as long as the folder name is the same as the extension name), the extension still works and it's easier to edit.

I have a minor problem with the zipping and then renaming of the .ext file.

When I zip the file using WinRar it becomes associated with WinRar. So if I change the name by adding the .ext the system still thinks it is a WinRar file.

So I have figured out that I can change the extension in DOS using the Command Prompt. Is that the easiest way to do it ?

If you're running Windows, it might be that you have "Hide extentions of know file types" enabled. In Explorer, go to Tools > Folder Options > View and uncheck "Hide extentions of know file types".

Yes, that is what it was. Thanks.
