Long title, long message. But, probably a short answer and maybe not the best thread to use to get some help...anyway...

The apparent incompatibility between WB's "Xtras for the Wilhelmshaven campaign v2.4c" and bbw's "Wilhelmshafen, St. Nazaire...v7" still perplexes me.

If I want the corrected Kiel harbor and KW Kanal features (very good for the first year of the war) I have to use "Wilhelmshafen...v7". But, if I want the "Xtras...v2.4c" ships and the corrected St. Nazaire map (very good for the next four years of the war...if you live that long!), I have to use "Wilhelmshafen...v6."

Don't get me wrong, it isn't that difficult to change the MOD load-out in mid-career with JSGME. But, it's a pain in the butt to also have to set-up and use two different versions of h.sie's V16B1 Patch kit, because of the differences in the en_menu.txt and SCR.mis files between v6+v2.4c and v7. Plus, even with JSGME, changing things back-and-forth increases the odds of corrupting files at some point (crashed/lost my last two careers due to that...bugger!).

So, does anyone have any good ideas or a method for using WB's "Xtras...v2.4c" with Wilhelmshafen...v7? I've spent many hours over the last year or so, trying to sort out the conflicts, but have had no luck other than bad luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
