I assumed that the most recent files (in both cases) would be safer to use, so I switched back from the Mediafire installer to the SubSim package. Is this a mistake? Is the Mediafire version the correct one to use? The two versions of the ship_names.cfg are quite different. There are lots of ships in the older version which aren't present in the more recent file and the organization is changed. I can imagine that using the wrong version could cause problems. (Maybe even CTDs.) What do you recommend?

And, hey, thanks for all the help with this. I'm gonna get this thing working someday!

If it makes no difference, then you are going to have to go through your mods one by one to find the problem or problems.

As stated above...install withot using CMDR or the cfg file....ensure everything is working fine.

Should that be the case, install the newest version of CMDR plus the original cfg file....any problems try the newer file.
