installing linkpoint module?

[snarkys]

i set up my account with Cardservice International and i downloaded the newer linkpoint module and unzipped it to find about 15 php files. I am using filezilla to FTP my files to the server. I just have no clue where to put these files to properly install the module. any help ?

INSTALLATION:

The files are arranged in the same structure as Zen-Cart v1.2.x/v1.3.x - Upload them as such.

I really don't understand what that means.

please forgive my noobness , i have never installed a module to zen cart before.

OK well i decided to add all the files to the file path that's listed next to the file and that went well untill i got to includes\modules\payments\linkpoint_api.

there is no linkpoint_api folder , should i create one ?


thanks for all your help , this whole thing has been a really neet learning process for me.

well i went ahead and created the folder and put the files in it.

I had one problem though the .htaccess file doesn't want to upload , when i drop it in the folder it has a bunch of ??????? in the file size and in the date. then it disappears when I add any other files.

BTW i have been installing this under the public HTML directory . i hope that is correct.

ok after installing without that odd file listed above i get this error when i go in admin on the cart and look under payment modules
