Hi, download them all ,the v720 patch 5 & jgsme you'll need that too. Check out the OM thread, it explains what you need & there's plenty of advice on how to get it running & all the links to the various parts of the mod
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...13&postcount=1 I had a bit of a struggle getting it running because I wasn't unzipping it right, but now that I've got it going I'm loving it, good luck |

One problem I've had is that since convoys tend to be huge, it's not a good idea to save a game too near to one. I tend to not overwrite savegames on any given patrol, so that if my current position turns out not to load, I can go back to the one previous - it's annoying, but to be honest, well worth it - OM is my absolute favourite version of SH4

To play Operation Monsun your mod order should be as follows ... or read the documentation first. Everything is explained in the documentation which no one reads first.
OMsMonsun_V705 OMv705_to_V720 OMv720_Patch5 If you add OMEGU mods after it they should be as follows ... OMEGU_v300 OMEGU_v300_Patch7

Everything is in the documentation. If you can not activate it then your doing the double folder routine so commonly made by skippers trying to install it.
Read the JSGME installation, read the mod installation and if you can not read the documentation in PDF open your PDF, click HELP and choose UPDATE and it will automatically update it for you. There should be no issues reading it after that. Then again after what Lurker said I think it is pretty explanatory. VVVVVVVVVVVVVV READ THIS THREAD VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...eration+monsun

when I activate OM the only changes there are is that I can play in the Atlantic. I thought it was suppose to change the main menu background and aren't the men suppose to speak German?

You'll need to install a couple more mods to get the different loading screens and the german voices - I think there's a german language pack with OMEGU - or there's the Das Boot sound mod, commonly abbreviated to DBSM - if you install that one bear in mind it's pretty big- it installs fine with JSGME, but it will take about 15-20 mins. Your machine hasn't crashed.

By the way ... it is best practice to do a clean install of the game, a clean install of JSGME and a clean install of the mods afterwards.
There is no guarantee that simply removing mods a b and c and replacing them with d f and g will replace and rewrite the correct files without corruption. Guaranteed fixes require guaranteed methods. If your still not opening the documentation then stop trying too. Open a document you can read then update your adobe. You should have at least Adobe X Reader.
