I see this SH Commander recommended by various people. I do not know the advantages of using it instead of the stock game. Perhaps you could tell me.

I have just made a CLEAN install after having problems with the installation of some mods.

There should really be a list of which mod should be extracted by JSGME and in what order they should be installed into the game. That would really make things easy for those of us who are not capable of logical thinking sometimes.

There are SO MANY mods out there and I have no idea which should be installed prior to installing an additional. I had also heard mentioned that some mods are outdated in relation to installing RUb1.45. I just finish a CLEAN install for a third time because of complications due to mod installation. Yes, I used to be a professor by profession, but that was quite sometime ago and now, because of my complicated incurable diseases, I do not think that well anymore. PLUS, a lot of mods come with no instruction sheet on how to install and do not provide the appropriate folder to put into the MOD folder and use JSGME to install them. SO, you see my problem. I love the game.

I have played every submarine game that came out - I think they are great (except for 688(i) because it was too complicated for me). I just finished reading the information that came with RUb1.45 - are there really mines in the ports? I have not installed anything after that yet. But, I live to have as much in additional mods in the game as possible that do not conflict with each other. I WILL take the precaution of testing each mod I install before using it in my career. I am tired of reinstalling the game.

This is now the 4th fresh start. SO, where do I go from here? Please tell me why I should install SH3 Commander and how it affects the game. I would be pleased to do so if it does not wreck my career (which I had backed up). Thanks for responding. NOW, if I can only get someone who would keep me informed of which mod to install next, and if I come across one that does not have install instructions, or the instructions are in a foreign language, it would be great if someone would tell me what to do with it. Also, when these mods do not come with a folder to put into the MOD folder and has to be installed manually, that could be my problem. I DO backup originals before installing. By doing some checking in relations to sounds in the game and speeches, why are their mods that make the originals worse instead of better??? If SH3 Commander would enhance the game for me, then I will install it. My next planned install is Augie RecManual, then JCW_Intros and then the Sound Trainer and finally the Bow Fix VIIB as I hate that mast in the front of the sub. One thing I do find is that I cannot read those small dials at the bottom. Three more things: I want to remove the words "GAME PAUSED" because I take a lot of snaps when playing; 2) I AM going to change the fatigue factor and lastly, I AM going to change the length of time that a person gets promoted from a simple Lieutenant Jr. I was an Oberlieutnant z. Sr. but I forget what file I had to change for those and I lost the piece of paper I had in the order of the promotions in rank after Oberlieutnant z. Sr. I know that the game pause is #90 and the other ranks are around #170, but I forget which file. I DO NOT want to play any more game where the fatigue factor starts to interfere and I have to quit an enemy attack because everyone in the sub is fatigued!!! I hate getting sunk, doesn't everyone??? hehe. Thanks for listening to my whinning. Robert. If there are any spelling mistakes, it's because my fingers do not always do what they are supposed to
