View Full Version : Bone question of the Day.
Ok Stupid question of the day here.I have GWX 2.1 and the generic mod enabler.So i copy the files into the "Mods" folder in SH3 folder on my pc,Yes.It then appears on the generic enabler menu to activate,yes.i activate said mod,but it wont show any difference.However i did activate the mod during a campaign.So my Question is,if you activate a mod/effecy via the enabler must it be done right at the beginning of the career?
You can enable the mods before starting the patrol. Maybe something got messed up during download or extraction. What mod did you install?
The lifeboat and debris mod and the enhanced torp damage mod.
Make sure file structure ok
example
MODS\Torpedo damage Final\Torpedo damage Final\data is no good
MODS\Torpedo damage Final\data is ok

I've got:
MODS\Torpedo damage Final\data\Misc
and
MODS\LifeBoats&Debris_v3B\Data
If you want rowers be sure to activate the above file first.
Ok seems i have now sorted the torpedo damae mod out but struggling with the lifeboat and debris one.Thanks for the help so far.:up:
I think that I know what your problem is & I'll try to explain the solution as best that I can. Here's an example using the Torpedo damage Final mod. Open your SH III mods folder & cut and paste this mod to the desktop. Open it & you'll see a second folder also labelled Torpedo damage Final. Copy & paste this 2nd folder back to your SH III Mods folder. It should now appear on the list of available mods and you should see it in your game when it's activated. I had the same problem when I first started using JSGME: I couldn't figure why mods weren't working until I did this. Follow the same steps to get the Lifeboats mod working.
Hope this solves your problem...:)
Ok,i have unzipped the lifeboat and debris mod to my desktop as you can see.

No thw dilemma is the following,do i just send the whole of that file(copy) to the mods folder?I only ask as there is another file called "optional" with a read me that tells you to rename some files.does this optional bit need to be seperate or not?

Copy the entire LifeBoats&Debris_v3B folder (not just its contents) to your mods folder. You can leave the Optional folder, no harm done if you do - it will just create another folder called "optional" in your game folder.
Of course, if you wish to install the optional features, consult the LifeBoats&Debris readme.
Cheers Shippers,all done,just have to see if its sorted later.:up:

You should be fine now....BTW, don't forget to activate the mod from the MODS folder http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/thumbsup.gif

What I mean is....when it is unpacked into your mods folder, you still need to enable it via JSGME

One tihng i have noticed is that there are now wee boxes and crates popping up as the target sinks and also the gruesome sight of crewmen being blown overboard as the target explodes.Still no liferafts though,nor lovely big holes in the side,just a dirty smudge.

It sounds like you've not installed correctly....either that or you've still to install the rowers mod.
BTW what is your graphics card :hmm:
512MB NVIDIA GeForce 8700M GT GDDR3 NVIDIA nForce 100 with NVIDIAŽ SLI™ technology .Whats the thing sbout the rowers?I did get the torp damage mod to work but not via the JSGME,but via direct install to the correct folders.

Why aren't you using JSGME (comes with GWX) to install your mods?
That way, you can uninstall them at any point in the future without running the risk of corrupting your installation :hmm:
I am,i just thought the eye candy damage mod was to be permenant.All the ithers i use the enabler,to a greater or lesser level of success PMSL!
