Sorry I thought you were joking... then I saw you post the same question in another thread!

The 21b "update" is not an update, it's the whole mod.

You should have got readme files and two archives called "JSGME mods" and "SH3 Commander Files". To find out what to do with those archives, read the READ-ME.

So just a dumb note, once again:

It means I can uninstall the compleate OLCE2 (jgsme) and activate your latest "environment" from 21mb download ?

So that's 2.4.3 mode ?

Yes that's right. Just read the readme.

Copied from post 1136:

Many harbour reflections are still broken/missing but fixing those would be a huge task so I won't bother doing that, but if I noice more broken ship reflections I will fix them and add the fixes to this mod. I imagine it's worth mentioning that a nice side-effect of this change is a massively reduced download size (OLC Ubermod v2.4.3 is only 21Mb).
  • The 'Adjusted Crew Skins' mod now removes medals and ranks from the crew skins (partly cos it looks better that way IMO, but mostly because the medals and ranks suffer the "glow in the dark" problem).
  • Fixed some "glow in the dark" particles.
  • Fixed a typo on the compass in OLC GUI Special (bearing '205' now reads '205' not '025').
  • Updated the documentation - PLEASE READ THE NEW README FOR UPDATED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
I would like to thank:
privateer for his invaluable help with reflections.
Philip_Thomsen for throwing wrenches at me.

Chapeau (hat in French) is a term that is used as reconnaissance, as a token of admiration for something that has been done. This is the same as our Spanish phrase "take off the hat" in reference to an ancient custom of respect and idolatry by someone who is at the top.

If you thought this was what I said ... You have right!.

Where did you get that mod from? The Lifeboats&Debris thread?

IIRC it was the same as the L&D mod (or whatever version of it was released back then) except that reflections were removed. So I reckon you should use the normal/current version of the L&D mod with 2.4.3 instead of my old "without reflections" version - that way you'll see reflections on your lifeboats.

Well, Maestro, it finally looks again like my beloved Alpha release...

It seems far away from stock GWX reflections structure ?



Back to reality...

Thanks, mate.
