First, make sure you have installed Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler (JSGME).

Let's say you have Fubars Das boot VIIC skin.

If you haven't already unzipped it, do so. Inside the folder you should see another folder labeled 'data'. If that's the case, simply take the 'Fubars Das boot VIIC' folder and place it inside your MODS folder for SH3. Usually this is located at:

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\MODS

The 'MODS' folder is automatically created when you install JSGME.

Next, open up JSGME and look in the left-hand list for Fubars Das boot VIIC. Click on it so that it is highlighted and then click the right arrow button in the middle to move it to the right hand list of activated mods.

You may get a warning message that the skin is overwriting another texture that already exists. Just ignore that warning if you want to use Fubar's skin instead.

That's all there is to it!

Good sailing, kaelun!

If you have, or are going to get, GWX you should be aware that two of Fubar's VIIC skins don't seem to work well with that supermod. They are the VIIC Med Camo & the VIIC Plain (grey). The telegraph dial on the bridge looks "off center" on both of these skins when used in GWX. His other VIIC skins don't seem to have this problem.

Can't honestly say that I've noticed :hmm:

It's a graphic anomaly that has appeared with these two skins when I've used them in GWX. None of his other VIIB/VIIC skins seem to be affected. I wish that I could post an attachment because the picture would explain it much better than I can in words. It's a small but very irritating bug. There was a thread posted here months ago about it & I remember reading it before I joined. I can't find the thread now but I know that it had something to do with hex editing.
