Got the four replacement parts without errors.
Still, attempts to repair the archive are failing
and verbose mode isn't offering many clues.

Anybody suggest a different par app to try?

This may sound like an overly-obvious solution, but have you renamed the replacements to the same filenames as the originals?  I had to do that when it still would not unpack initially.

Replacements had the correct names; however I did notice the broken four still present in the directory with *.1 suffix.
Unfortunately removing them didn't make a difference: par2cmdline failed again.
phpar2 failed.
MultiPar failed.

Surely I can't ask Shirley or anybody else to repost forty rar parts.
Anybody fancy creating a new par set? 1% redundancy would suffice.
Roughly equivalent to reposting a single rar part.

No hurry. Haven't finished the other ESB sides yet, nor even started grabbing ROTJ.
Thanks in advance to anybody who hasn't yet deleted rar parts after unpacking ESB-Side4

Unfortunately I deleted the rar's and par's because I thought the problem was fixed and I needed to clear the hdd space.  Is it possible for me to make another rar archive with the same size parts and make some new par's?  If so, I can generate some new pars and send them to some transfer site or google drive or something for you to download.

Luke threw twice....maybe.

Very kind of you to offer-- if you're very bored, or very curious.
Since your rar was uncompressed and unencrypted, it should be possible.
I cannot guarantee it would work every time, but I have done it successfully before.
The sfv would verify it
