Hello there , thank you JScones for this Excellent tool ,I use this JSGME with SH3 and SH4 , I try to update the JSGME for SH4 and followed the steps clicking always next , at the final I got a new yellow JSGME icon but clicking this new icon appear a warning from my antivirus , the previous icon version of JSGME for SH4 is still there ,therefore now I have three JSGME icons , I have done a screenshot , can you tell me please how can I sort out this mess ? , thank you

[JScones]

That's not an Antivirus warning, it's a Security warning. Just select Run; I assure you that JSGME contains no malicious code.

Regarding your icons, do the two that point to SH4 point to the same installation folder (you can see it in the grey panel up the top of the JSGME screen)?

If so, then simply choose one icon and delete it.

JSGME is the best thing since sliced bread.

Don't accept any cheap imitations or substitutes.

I wonder if JSGME will work with SH5.

Or whether SH5 will have some other proprietary-like way to apply mods.

Hello there , thank you very much for the help , the two JSGME icons point to different address , when I click on the new JSGME icon always ask me with a warning if I want to run the new updated JSGME program , it looks like the new update of JSGME was installed in a wrong place , can you tell me please how can I can make the new icon to point toward the SH4 game ? , thank you again for your help

[JScones]

Looks like you installed the updated version into the default path, which is the path that the installer was ran from.

Assuming that the path shown on the older version of JSGME is correct, you need to run the latest installer again and select the same path into which to install JSGME. It should then happily replace the older version.

Once installed, you can delete the icon to the incorrectly installed copy (the one on the right in your image). As you've installed it into your temp folder, next time you delete all your temporary files it will be removed.

Hi! I don't get generic mod enabler to work with SH5.

1. I have win7.
2. I've installed GME in root of silent hunter 5.
3. I ran it and it generated a MODS-folder.
4. I copied "No Damn Bubbles, No Damn Halo Mod" there.
5. I ran GMD and selected the mod and activated it.
6. It didn't affect the game.
7. I see that when I activated the mod, it generate a folder in Silent Hunter 5 root that is called "No Damn Bubbles, No Damn Halo Mod", and it gets deleted when I de-activate the mod.

EDIT: it was a "double-folder" problem, so it works now

It may not be compatable with SHV until Jaesen gets to look at the Game (that is presuming he intends to).

Edit: See #50

The above was a double folder issue - the poster found it himself.

Re SH5, JSGME seems to be working normally - and it should, it's only a file copier. The issue is whether SH5 is auto-patched. If so, that'll blow JSGME out of the water and I don't want to inherit all the mod-conflict problems that would result merely because the original mod was applied via JSGME.

Fortunately, however, it seems that patching is still within the control of the user (confirm d/l, confirm install). In that case, it's no different than now...as long as the user remembers to disable all mods before applying the patch, all will be fine.

Hi,

I decided to install GWX3. It works fine in my ubuntu 9.10 64 Bit. But the I have trouble with the MOD-Enabler, I cant select the Mods to install into the game.



The screenshot describes my trouble, any ideas? The given path is ok, i see 19 Mods in status, but noone in the list.
Thanks,
Paco.

Can anyone inform me, is it possible to ruin you SHIII installation by installing mods via JSGME, if say you try enabling mods in an improper sequence?

I was under the impression that if you tried a certain sequence of mods & they didn't work, then you simply undo it, & try to get it right, no harm done to your stock SHIII installation.

The reason I ask is that I have been swapping in & out diffrent GUI's in order to find one that best suits my personal taste. Some have a compatibility issue w/ my favorite mods. And I'm scared to try mixing if it will ruin my stock SHIII install.

for instance ACM OLC Gui reloaded does not have a fix for DD OH v3.09.( I dont use FM new interior, cause my puter won't run it). If I try using FM fix for ACM reloded as a fill in, might I risk corrupting my game if it doesn't work?
There's also the cloth map, the anvart mods etc.... should I try , or hold off if there is a compatibility warning?
