CCIP, I respectfully disagree. Based on my experience with the software asd a careful reading of the documentation, I would suggest the following:
1) It doesn't matter when you install SH3 Commander. It's a stand-alone program. Just put it in its own folder on the root directory. Don't try to use JSGME!
2) The 4GB patch and H.sie's 4GB fix do exactly the same thing. There is no need to use both. You won't get 8GB.
And you may get problems.
3) First, install the mega-mod and its updates. Follow the instructions and install NYGM, NYGM3 New, and NYGM3.6D. Don't add any of the additional mods that come packaged with NYGM unless and until you know what they do and are ready to use them. (For instance don't install the Mediterranean Campaign until you are going to start a career there.)
4) Now add whatever other mods you want.
5) After all the mods you are going to use are installed, now set up the h.sie and Steibler supplements. (Not before this point!) Once the supplemental folders are set up properly, install them. Carefully follow the excellent instructions provided by h.sie and Stiebler. These are not "drop-in" mods, and they require a bit of care.
So: NYGM and updates. Any NYGM add-ons. Any and all other mods. Set up H.sie and Stiebler. Activate h.sie, then Stiebler. Install Commander whenever.
From my experience, that's the best way to do it.
hocking, if you want to try a high-rez widescreen mod, you might look at
Van1920x1080. It uses NYGM and Hitman's GUI, a great combination IMO. You can find it here.
