What you do is create a folder in the Date directory with the desired date (if one does not already exist) in format YYYYMMDD. In that folder you place the 'data' folder (and all its contents) from the mod you want enabled at or past that in-game date.

All the stuff in that 'data' folder will be written into the game when you launch it via Commander at the appropriate date in your career.

So for skinpack MFM-v3-US+UK_Skins19401101, I have the folders set up like so:

SH3 Commander\Date\19401101\data

The 'data' folder there is just a copy/paste of the 'data' folder from the skinpack.
Frau Kaleun, please: Can you post your JSGME list for SH3 Commander? Or the mods installed in commander (with their folders)?

I need that reference for avoid problems...

Many thanks and best regards!
