Forgive my inexperience.  I've gotten other patches to work, but not this one.  I'm sure the answer is something painfully obvious for someone not a newbie.

I found an unheaderesd rom and have the patch file, and I'm trying to patch it with lunarips.  The patch file is 7z and lunar won't recognize it as ips.  

Should I be using a different utility?

The 7z archive is not the actual patch, you'll have to open/unpack that 7z file with a utility like WinZip in order to get to/extract the contents inside, where you'll find the .ips patch for the mod that lunarips can recognize.

I was just coming back to comment that I found it.  Of course it was something like that.  It hit me all at once that my girlfriend's laptop didn't have WinZip.

 

Like I said, something easy.  Looking forward to it!
