Mod List and Order Help Please

[Jetguy06]

Hey guys. I'm fairly new to the forums, and have been playing Silent Hunter for a while now.

I was stuck with the infamous stuck tonnage bar bug, and decided to try making sure my mods were activated in the right order.

I stumbled across this post...

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=222425

... and started downloading mods that I didn't have. I de-activated EVERYTHING in JSGME, so I can get a new, fresh start.

The problem now is that I'm not 100% certain which mods should be activated in which order, and there are some from the list in that other post which I couldn't find. I'll post my mods list below with annotations for those mods with problems or comments.

Here is my current mods list, with comments in Green.

Thanks guys!!

I would not recommend now making your own mod list as looking at yours you will spend more time fixing it than playing it.
I used to spend many hours sorting out gamers mod lists not always the problems of what they wanted to use but the mods they had not included to make the game work properly.
There are basically 3 mega mods that are well established,tried and tested and they all go about SH5 in different ways.

Sober Mega Mod Thread (Posts 1-2-3-4-5-6 (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=192374)

Mega Mod with MagUI interface "Wolfes From The Deep" (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=2175369&postcount=1)

The modders tweak the mods if necessary and add patches so they can be compatible with their mega mod.
Two of these mega mods use TDW's New Ui 7-5-0 which is designed to be used with his Generic File Patcher.
The modders supply their own customized snapshot files to use in the Generic File Patcher.

My advice if you still want to do your own thing is to look at the mods used in the mega mod listings as these will at least show you the correct order that they need to be in.
Any mods not showing put last at the back of JSGME as these are the ones most likely you are going to test in your game if you have problems.

I can highly recommend TWOS that has over 100 mods in it.
I have completed 82 manual game saves with it and no problems to date.

Good news!! I uninstalled SH5, reinstalled it, and got the WoS mod successfully installed. I just have a few questions...

WoS obviously comes with a whole host of mods that are compatible, and I have the following activated, in this order:

The Wolves of Steel 1.04
The Wolves of Steel 1.04 - Patch 12
The Wolves of Steel 1.04 - Real Navigation_by TheDarkWraith.

(I didn't activate the 16x9 patch since it seems I don't need it, but I'm not certain).

My first question is that, say, I want to activate Trevally Automated Scripts, IRAI, and Equipment Upgrades, how do I know which order to activate them in, or are they already activated within the WoS modpack?

Second, I used to have Reaper7's stadimeter mod activated, but it's not in the WoS mod list. Is the stadimeter fixed in WoS, or can I activate Reaper7's mod, or what? I'm not really sure what to do :o .

Thanks for all the help. I can't wait to get back in the sub and start hunting again!!

to your first question both of them are in TWoS ....take a look here (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=2165720&postcount=1) what mods are in TWoS
Reaper7 mod for SH5 are outdated and doesn't work with TWoS cos will conflict with tdw's stadimeter.
there is no stadimeter bug with TWoS
