if you're talking about the dragonballs that Sage made: I haven't downloaded them yet, because I'm at work now
but that download is NOT a level, just a wad with 7 objects in it
so I think you got things mixed up here

if you want LIVE help with downloading/installing then login to our chatbox, I'm there now and I can help you out if you want

I'll take a shot at it.

If the level comes as a TR4 file,
1) You move the TR4 to trle\data
2) If there is script.dat and english.dat you move them to trle\
3) If there is script.txt and english.txt
a) Move them to trle\script
b) Run easylife.bat (much easier)
4) If there are wav files, you move them to trle\audio
5) If you have a load.bmp, you can put it in \trle if you want to.

If the level comes as a TOM file
1) Move the TOM file to trle\graphics\wads
2) If it comes with custom wad files, also move them to \trle\graphics\wads
3) Run tom2pc to convert the TOM file to a TR4 file

Then run tomb4 and play the level.

Is that detailed enough?
