Mod Installation Order

Hi
I know this has probably been asked many times before, but I have some questions of my own to ask.

I've decided to try out TM & RSRDC.

For TM, I know the latest version is 1.7.2. There is also a beta patch that updates TM to 1.7.4. I have no problems with this.

However for RSRDC, there are a number of files I'm confused about.

The basic RSRDC file for TM is RSRDC_P2_TM_v220.7z. Is there also a patch for this file (RSRDC_P2_Patch3_for_V220.rar)?

Then this file (RSRDC_P2_TM174_Patch2_for0.rar) updates the above files to be compatible with TM 1.7.4?

Also in what order do I install these mods, using JSGME?

Thanks.

Install Trigger ( 1.7.2 ), then its patch (1.7.4), then RSRDC TM v220 ( TM174 only ), then the patch RSRDC_P2_TM174_Patch1_for_v220 in this order and you should be good to go.

Thanks. It appears I have the incorrect RSRDC files?

Just a heads-up: lurker has released a second patch for RSRDC, which contains all the changes in p1. You can find the version you need (and detailed instructions on how to install with TMaru) at the very first post of the RSRDC thread.

Default Problem - CTD

Using JSGME I enabled the mods in the following order:

TM 1.7.2
TM 1.7.4 Beta patch
RSRDC for TM v220
RSRDC for TM 174 patch.

Result - CTD
I rolled back the RSRDC mods and the sim works fine.

After some fiddling around I've determined that installing any RSRDC for TM file causes the CTD. It happens at the first loading screen after the intro movie - screen goes black and I get the standard Windows error message with an option to send an error report to Microsoft.

I just want to be sure of the RSRDC files I need -
Main file is RSRDC_P2_TM_v220.7z, about 36143 KB in size
Patch file is RSRDC_P2_TM174_Patch2_for0.rar, about 94 KB in size, needed to update the main RSRDC file to run with TM 1.7.4

These files were taken from links posted in the RSRDC post. Have I got this right? If these are the wrong files, would appreciate links to the correct ones, thanks.

Just realised I made a basic error in unpacking the TM files into the SH$ Mod directory. Things are ok now.
