Living SH3...I tried my best to use it.

Hi all. I really tried my best to use Living Silent Hunter 3. I worked long into the night trying to get it to work the way I wanted. But I just couldn't do it. Oh, I got the sim working just fine. The graphics are fantastic! The problem (for me) was integrating the mods I liked to use, into the sim. I tried using JSGME....no luck. Tried doing manual incorporation of changes. Still no luck. In the "normal" SH3 installation all these changes worked just fine. The only conclusion I can draw, is that LSH3 is hard-coded to prevent the changes and mods I wanted to use. Perhaps using them would cause instability, or those that made the sim weren't interested in using these mods...I dunno. Specifically, I wanted to use:
"WolfiesTweakPak" and "ASN Torpedoes". Also, I wanted to modify the Basic.cfg to allow increased renown for certain achievements. None of this was permitted. So I am going back to the standard version of SH3. I will most certainly miss the beautiful graphics. But gameplay trumps eye candy for me.
