PE4 and E5?
 
Can I combine those mods togheter? I have not played SH4 from some time and I just formatted my Pc. Now I have everything on clean install.
Thanks

I don't believe combining them would be such a good idea. SInce they both work on many of the same files and both are designed to accomplish an "environment" improvement, they really should be thought of as mutually exclusive. Just try each one and see which you like better and stick with that one would be my advice.

Ditto on what Digital Trucker said. I wish those two (wclear and kriller) would work together and combine their talents. There are things I really like about both mods and bringing them together would be nirvana!

both mods have "glitches" so find out what those are and that may help you decide.

both mods try to give you the "real" look and feel but they use different settings and sometimes use different tricks to get the look they want.

its like dating twin sisters, they might look the same on the outside but inside they are different so your just going to have to try them both out untill you find a reason to like one over the other.

Yes its possible to some extent. For example, I'm using EE5 as a base, but I like the explosions, fires, caustic effects, and surface draft of PE4. Replacing the files with the respective names "explosion, fire and the sub.dat/sim files" allows me to get the best of both worlds! Cheers!

If you use any other mods like RFB and TMO replacing those .dat and sim files may cause significant side-effects.

Dating twin sister can be a dilema....sometimes:hmm:
I guess I'll wait for the upcoming release of RFB because I played TM an now I want to try someting new.
Thanks for advice

That may be possible now, but the new version of RFB (hopefully released this weekend) will ship with the new PE as part of the package:yep:

Very Possible. I'm not sure what files E5 changes. Do you enable RFB before E5 as that would insure no problems from RFB?

As Fish stated RFB 1.52 has PE4 fully integrated as to avoid conflicts.

If Kriller2 and W_Clear could join forces we would have a Super Super Mod??:oops:

Kruger 10-22-08 06:17 AM

Yeah, but retain the camera movement of PE. The one in EE is a killer :)

Sledgehammer427 10-22-08 07:01 AM

i just pull the cameras.dat file out and replace it with the PE one:sunny:

Kruger 10-22-08 07:39 AM

Great thing to know. Since I am no techie, I didn't know this. Thanks.
