Hi!
I've got a problem with ProMods v1.98 files.
I downloaded all parts of this mod, but when I want to extract files by using .exe file I see this:
"Can not open the file as [7z] archive. Is not archive."
I have newest version of WinRar. I was downloading 7-zip, but always I see this same error.

Can someone help me?

You need a version of 7-zip that supports LZMA compression. (latest one)

Do I actually need that exe that comes with the 1.98 multi part download, or is that just for people who don't understand how to unpack multi-part archives?

The EXE is not necessary, as you correctly assumed ;)

"Is no archive" looks like one of the files have been corrupted during download. Please try to download the files again - perhaps with a different browser.

@stummer I was downloading by Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome... Still this same problem. :(
Why you can't make 4 .rar files? :P Where's the problem?

We switched to 7zip because of a better compression and quicker downloads.

And if you download the last part (the EXE file), this file will combine and extract the other parts automatically - this also was not able with RAR files.

Ok.
I was using .exe file. But after choose "Extract" option I always see this:

"D:\aNy\ETS 2 - Mapy\promods-v198.exe
Can not open the file as [7z] archive
Is not archive"

And I don't know why.
I was using official ProMod's tutorial, and always this same error.
I very want to play with these maps... :(

Try updating your 7-zip.

Also make sure you have all files in the same folder and try again ;)
