Yep. We were using it for SH3 five years before SH5 was released. The 'G' stands for 'Generic'. It wasn't made for Silent Hunter at all.

Changes:
- Added: drag & drop from other processes (ie Windows Explorer, Desktop) now enabled under Microsoft Vista/Windows 7
- Added: now detects changes to MODS folder contents and refreshes screen automatically
- Changed: display font now defaults to user's desktop (icon) font
- Changed: improved handling of -remove directive
- Changed: improved handling of mod-added folders
- Changed: numerous (minor) interface modifications
- Changed: further optimised for use with Microsoft Vista/Windows 7


A minor update, but one that includes a number of improvements and enhancements.

The changes are fairly self explanatory.

I RECOMMEND THAT ALL JSGME USERS UPDATE TO THIS LATEST VERSION! There are no benefits running an earlier version of JSGME.

INSTALLATION
JSGME can be installed one of two ways:

==1. CENTRAL INSTALLATION==

You can install the JoneSoft Generic Mod Enabler (JSGME) to a central location and point it to each of your games through creating shortcuts. To do this:
  1. install JSGME to a central location (for example, ***8220;C:\Games\Generic Mod Enabler***8221. Keep the ***8220;Create a desktop icon***8221; option selected in the installer
  2. once installed, DO NOT RUN! Copy and paste the newly created JSGME desktop shortcut as many times as you have games and change the ***8220;Start in***8221; folder of each shortcut to point to each game***8217;s base folder. To change the ***8220;Start in***8221; folder, right-click the shortcut, select ***8220;Properties***8221; and then the ***8220;Shortcut***8221; tab.
  3. rename each shortcut to something meaningful, such as ***8220;JSGME - GameName1***8221;, ***8220;JSGME - GameName2***8221;, ***8220;JSGME - GameName3***8221; and so on. To rename a shortcut, simply right-click the shortcut and select ***8220;Rename***8221;
Using JSGME with subsequently installed games is simply a matter of copying, pasting and editing an existing shortcut (steps 2 and 3 above). And whenever JSGME is updated, you only need to install it once.

==2. SEPARATE INSTALLATION==
If you prefer, you can install separate copies of JSGME into each of your games. To do this, simply install JSGME to the base folder of the game that you would like to mod. The base folder usually contains the game***8217;s main executable file and usually has a name unique to the game. If in doubt, consult the game***8217;s online community. If you keep the ***8220;Create a desktop icon***8221; option selected, the installer will add a uniquely named shortcut to your desktop.

Language Packs
If you use a language pack, please download the updated version from http://jonesoft.jaennahre.com. Note that some packs have not yet been updated with new translations - new versions will be uploaded as soon as possible.

As always, please feel free to announce in other game forums...

AND REMEMBER - THE ONLINE USER GUIDE IS YOUR FRIEND!

NB: This will be the last update for a few months. The next update will hopefully include:

- ability to build a new mod from different files (identified through compare)
- ability to remove folders
- ability to auto-disable subsequent mods when trying to disable a "greyed out" mod
- improved snapshot and compare features
- notification when files can't be copied because they are open/locked (which beckons a reminder in the meantime - when enabling/disabling mods, please make sure that all affected files are closed before doing so, just like you would with any other copy or move operation)
Sorry, I don't understand anything.... what does ***8220 means? or ***8217? Is any way to explain for beginners how to do? Grrrmmmmm!!

***8220 means that the quote in the post got corrupted. It happens when certain things are copied that don't translate into the code the forum uses. Whenever I quote something I go back and fix those. Obviously not everyone bothers to do that.

It has nothing to do with games or mods at all.

Hey guys, thanks for the hard work in making this game playable.

I would like to report that the link to JSGME 2.5 provided in the 1st page of this topic is a dead link.

Can we use the v2.6 instead?
cheers

Not trying to offend anyone but should this topic not be unsticky'd?

It's a 2 year old topic with dead links, and its the old version of JSGME, lots of people are misguided by the title, i was gone for a while and fell for it like a fly falls for sh.., well you know what a fly likes.

Maybe just a topic with the link to 2.6? Or just post 67 and close it?

What ever happened to this mod and it's creator?

Default JSGME update

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...p?do=cat&id=74

Now the JSGME pdf file is added to a downloads utility section has a separate download. The other JSGME download package has the pdf file with it now. Thanks Sailor Steve and Neal Stevens for the help.

Default JSGME Installation for Dummy's! (Help:( )

Forgive me, but I am not a PC guru. I don't understand the lingo to install this mods program and let alone run it. The instructions are beyond my level of PC expertise.
*********************************

==1. CENTRAL INSTALLATION==
You can install the JoneSoft Generic Mod Enabler (JSGME) to a central location and point it to each of your games through creating shortcuts. To do this:
  1. install JSGME to a central location (for example, “C:\Games\Generic Mod Enabler”). Keep the “Create a desktop icon” option selected in the installer
  2. once installed, DO NOT RUN! Copy and paste the newly created JSGME desktop shortcut as many times as you have games and change the “Start in” folder of each shortcut to point to each game’s base folder. To change the “Start in” folder, right-click the shortcut, select “Properties” and then the “Shortcut” tab.
  3. rename each shortcut to something meaningful, such as “JSGME - GameName1”, “JSGME - GameName2”, “JSGME - GameName3” and so on. To rename a shortcut, simply right-click the shortcut and select “Rename”
Using JSGME with subsequently installed games is simply a matter of copying, pasting and editing an existing shortcut (steps 2 and 3 above). And whenever JSGME is updated, you only need to install it once.

************* NONE OF THIS MAKES SENSE TO ME!!!!
I intend to utilize this for my SH5, and I have the current version!

Dankeschon alle!
