Thank you for those kind words about NYGM, all those contributors above.

So far as switching from one super-mod to another is concerned:
I would always advise renaming your existing SH3 folder folder found in 'My Documents'. For example, if you were playing GWX, rename the folder My Documents\SH3 to My Documents\SH3_GWX. Then you can return to it at a later date, if required.

This has the result that the NYGM installation (or any other new super-mod) will create a new folder My Documents\SH3, so there is no danger of contamination of files causing problems with the new super-mod. If you wish to return to GWX (in this example), just delete My Documents\SH3 and rename My Documents\SH3_GWX to My Documents\SH3.

It will be necessary to have two different installations of SH3, of course. That means a second installation of your SH3 DVD-ROM into a folder different from the original. Do NOT install the game into C:\program files! Always causes more trouble than it is worth.
