now that looks like a fun and challenging (aka hard) game setup you have there

[SteelViking]

Not bad at all, here is my advice for how to clean it up a bit:

- I just uploaded a combined version of Env 3.1, the way you have it installed now is just fine but if you use the combined version it will thin out your mod soup that little bit more.

- Since you are using IRAI I am pretty sure that you don't need Feared Hunters, I am pretty sure that IRAI edits all the same files.

- I believe that Env3.1 already has a realistic size moon, so I don't think you need RealSizeMoon, but I am not 100% sure on that one.

- Some of those add-ons of TDWs are not necessary, as I think that one of them does what several of the others do put together. But, you should talk to him for confirmation on that one(I am no expert on TDW's UI, as I use Reaper7's HiDef Realistic Interface).

And my last piece of advice is for myself, I have been meaning to just release Capthelm's audio mod with my touch ups built right in so that people won't have to mess with both.

Excellent! Just what I was looking for.

Correct, a sticky thread and the experience of different mods (to combine or not) from everyone here at subsim.

Make this a sticky thread.

Here is my impressive list:

IRAI
UHS
ERM

Thanks Steel. I'll do a little researching and see if I can remove the mods you listed. I put this list up right before downloading your combine Env3.1 mod so I'm using the Env3.1 combined one now.

And actually, I think I'm missing one of the addon's for TDW's UI because I noticed that my "ghost" contacts still have tails. There's a sentence I never thought I'd use.

DarkWraith, can you comment on the couple things that Steel mentioned?

On a side note, the game is stable and looks absolutely stunning.

NewUIs_TDC_3_9_3_No_Contact_Colors - needed to remove colors from contacts on the maps
NewUIs_TDC_3_9_3_No_Contact_Tails - remove the 'tails' from those contacts on the maps so you can't tell direction they are heading/moving
NewUIs_TDC_3_9_3_Sub_Warship_Merchant_Same_Shape - makes those contacts all use the same shape
NewUIs_TDC_3_9_3_No_Color_Dashed_Contact_Line - hydrophone contact lines have no color and are dashed
NewUIs_TDC_3_9_3_Waypoint_Contacts_Same_Shape_No_C olor - the 'ghost' contacts all use the same shape and have no color
NewUIs_TDC_3_9_3_Waypoint_Contacts_No_Tails - the tails are removed from the 'ghost' contacts so you can't tell heading/direction
NewUIs_TDC_3_9_3_No_Hydrophone_On_Surface - hydrophone operator won't report hydrophone contacts and you won't get hydrophone contact lines until ~9m depth

swap the two items in yellow above in your loadout so it look like the above.

[SteelViking]

Ah, so they are all needed. Sorry for misleading you. Well, at least now you know a better order to install them in.

Thanks TDW. Done! I'll give it a try. By the way, does your IRAI mod do the same as Feared Hunters? If so, I'd like to clean that out of my soup.

-I am not sure, but I think that TDW's UI already takes care of the free cam, so you might not need Free Cam Tweak 1.1 - Narrow

This is incorrect, because when I use MRP over NewUIs with the 8x5 patch (is this correct.. my moniter is 1680x1050?) it changes the cam files back so I can't zoom correctly. So my Free Cam has to go OVER MRP 8x5 patch

I would think you need the 16x9 patch. Not for absolute sure but I think 1680X1050 is 16x9 ratio resolution. I run at 1920X1080 and use the 16x9 patch on my 47" Westinghouse monitor. Someone will pipe in and let you know if I'm mistaken.

I believe you can get rid of the "new_KM_binos" as I think they are included in SteelVikings new 1.1 Interior Mod.

Steel?
