Hi Coral
The terminology you are using is making it a little confusing, the applications sound very similar this should help

1. JSGME JonesSoft Generic Mod Enabler is an application that allows you to manage addons more easily

Guide : http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...62&postcount=4


2. TDW Generic File Patcher This patches the games Main exe and allows a degree of editable settings. It can done directly with the Patcher or in some cases editing the .py files . The initial settings are determined by the the WOS Mod . This is done by restoring a Snapshot .gps file . You can save your settings as a Snapshot .GPS file and name it whatever you want



3. TDW options file editor/viewer This allows you to see the changes and edit certain settings parameters etc . The default setting are applied with the TheDarkWraithUserOptions.py

Guide 2 : Making changes in the options file Viewer http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...66&postcount=6


I think you are referring to what look like No Entry Sign icons [ The Red Dots ]
In the TDW Generic File Patcher . If its set up correctly [ Automatically ] it should be mostly a Blue circle with a Tick in the middle. Changes need to be made with a degree of caution but things like changing the Map Tool Colours are fairly simple to apply .

This is a Guide on "how to"

I think the changes you can make with the Options FileViewer/Editor will be of main interest for you certainly for a Graphical changes like the GUI Dials and also its good scope for customisation . Its also very easy to impliment and use

It well worth taking a little time out to check out the Guides by TheBerbster [ Link below ] and keeping to the Instructions with the WOLVES OF STEEL mod without deviating

In the long run it will save time and stress getting fully set up

Happy Hunting
