I stand corrected, just moved a readme for my only mod to correct location. Also checked other mods I use if they have readmes properly - most do not. :yep:

i found something

you make a TXT file and go to save as
then select save as all type of files

then type like: Test_Mod.JSGME

and press save

and then JSGME will read it and it pops up when you go over the mod with your cursor in JSGME

greets

ARE DOCUMENTS IMPORTANT?
 

Hi Guys
I was interested in your comments.
In JSGME I go to explore and delete the documents as I found that the readme.txt files were all clashing as the different mods think it is the same readme file in all. Am I creating a problem by doing it my way?
Best wishes Peter

yeah，you are right. They‘d better add a name to the file.

What happens if there is something important in the readme.txt file after you delete all the readme.txt.

Disable all your mods. Take any open up the folder structure of a mod. check for any documentation or documents folder. If applicable, rename the readme.txt file to <modname>.readme.txt.

Problem with using a *.jsgme and hitting enter executes the jsgme program.

In this example,
Your drive letter:\Silent Hunter 5\Test_Mod\MODS\
Your drive letter:\Silent Hunter 5\Test_Mod\MODS\!BACKUP folder
Your drive letter:\Silent Hunter 5\Test_Mod\MODS\!INSTLOGS" folder

is created.

Rename the readme.txt file to <modname>.readme.txt is better.

I print all my 'Readme' documents and keep them in a big file.

I'm old school and I like to look at a hard copy rather than have to go to a screen.

Comfy chair and a cup of coffee. :)

Yep
 

As suggested above, I also rename all readme's, but to format: readme_modname, rather than modname_readme, so they'll all bunch up in the SH4 folder & be easy to find / identify problems.

I do wish all modders would do the same, or at least not just use "read me".

I also very much wish that more modders would include info on what specific changes they made to the files, at least for small mods, so that some users could incorporate the changes manually, to use them with other conflicting mods etc.
