did you read how JSGME works and folder structures are done, I guess. Check here JSGME (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=204593)

Since OHII is a mod, I would suggest to post any future questions about OH II in the open horizons thread under SH5 Mods Workshop forums. Welcome to subsim since it is telling me this is your first post.

No, you do not have to use it . It is a GREAT utility tool. Makes installation of mods, deinstall mods simple and sweet.

JSGME will overwrite file and folders under data. Such as data\cfg or data\menu or data\submarine. All depends on what is in the mod you want to install. So much faster than manual entry. Less human error involved if you make a mistake manually.

No, no need to in my case. Even with my 90 mods + installed, I would have analyzed the problem down to Open Horizons (if the case) and fixed the problem. I did once with OH II v2.1. OH works fine for everyone else.

Do you need still help now? Did you see the JSGME links I provided? did you open links and try the suggestions? If so, where are you stuck? I need pictures or details to help.

No, I do not have a download link. v2.1 had a major problem that caused a CTD. I would not use it.

Read the update log for v 2.2 for Open Horizons in the SH5 mods thread forum. Nothing wrong with v2.2. Perhaps you need to redownload it. Using 7zip to unpack archives? What problem are you having with OH II v2.2?

Ok i think that the real problem is that i'm blocked in lorient, because if i start a New campaign i'm ever there Also with normal game withouth mods... How i can solve?
