Do I have this installed right?

[FFIF]

Hey folks...longtime subsim driver here...after playing loads of SHIII with all the mods my heart desired, i decided to jump to SHV. Wrong move in my book. I just didnt like it at ALL. FPS was a slide show compared to the smooth as silk experience i had in SHIII, so even "walking around" in that sim was an exercise in frustration. So i stuck with SHIII, and bought SHIV on steam along with the U boat missions addon.

I fired up SHIV just to check what my version number was, 1.5, which i know from reading other posts was the "latest" version. So I was good there. I wanted the most realistic experience possible so i downloaded the following files:

RFB_2.0 Real Fleet Boat 2.0
RFB_2.0_Patch_23April2010 Real Fleet Boat 2.0Patch
RSRDC_RFB_V575 Run Silent Run Deep Campaign Mod
RSRDC_V5xx_Patch1 Run Silent Run Deep Campaign Mod Patch

I used JSGME to install these files in the order listed above. My question is this...When i was enabling the mods JSGME popped up with a warning that i was about to overwrite files. IS this supposed to happen in the installation of these mods? Everything seems to be ok once i start the sim, but i was wondering if i was going to run into issues later on, and want to make sure im good to go before i get too deep into a career.

Also i would love for some informed readers of these forums to provide some links pertaining to the Fleet boat submarines and of technical details of the submarines in the pacific war in particular. I could spend a week trying to find things on google, but i figured this question has probably already been asked, so someone could provide a link to a list.

Also, besides RFB and RSRDC what mods should be recommended to furthur enhance the sim?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Yes, it's supposed to happen. What you need to do is look at each warning and see exactly which files it wants to overwrite. Often it will be the 'Readme' or some other piece of documentation, which is unimportant.

From what you have installed I would guess that it's not only not bad, it's actually good. If an RFB patch wants to overwrite something in RFB, by all means let it - they were made by the same team. Likewise RSRDC. You should be fine. :sunny:

Actually when you use JSGME to install one mod over another if you do not get asked the overwrite question this would be a sign that something is wrong in most cases a double file folder is the cause.Another sign that mods are installing correctly is as you add mods the lower mods in the list should be grayed out.

Just make sure your have the mods you want to add in the correct order(which yours are) and you will be good to go.

As to your last question that depends on player tastes and sometimes what mods you are running.I would go to the SH4 mod downloads page and look through them see what interests you
in most cases there is a link to a forum page discussing the mod as well.
