Sometimes if you cant open the file, just choose between one file or another, depending on what you want. Certain mods dont work well if you remove certain files, other work just fine, so you must keep a sharp eye for that... Lets supose one mod modified the files A, B, C, D and E, and another mod modifies the files B and D. You choose which ones you think is better for the gameplay you want, and add one mod into another and just put it all together into JSGME and there you go...
Its complicated? VERY!
To enable all those mods to work properly I've spent about 15 hours editing files...
Any question PM me!

Thanks , AGAIN. You see I am NOT a modder (DUH)

I am a user. NO offence intended, I have only the upmost respect for ALL the doers in the community. But to explain.. what got me into this prediciment was that I had been playing with shii v1.04 + gwx 1.03 + commander 1.03 (? damn i.m gettin tired), anyway I decided to update everything all at once instead of 1 @ a time and see what was working & see what didnt , but it seems I cant even do that much right. If I can open a file & change values .. ok but to do it so it works.. well. Frankly I dont even get the whole "drag & drop" thing. Cut & paste .. forget it. Give me a machine in parts in a box, tell me what it is supposed to do and I will put it back together for you. I built my own computer, but that is just putting stuff together. I had to pay somebody to fire it up & make it run. Thats how much of this modding thing I am able to do, so I am sorry if I seem like such a dunce at this . Its because I am.
