JGSME compatability

andym · 04-13-09, 12:18 PM

Just how exactly does one make a set of files(ie Skins etc) ready to be installed via JGSME?I do hope its an easy process.

It is. Normally if you want to install a gramophone song you would put it in a folder marked 'Gramophone', and that would be inside one marked 'Sound', and that one would be inside one labelled 'Data'. The user would then either take the file out and put it in the 'Gramophone' folder himself or just install the 'Data' folder inside SH3.

To make that folder series JSGME-compatible you would just put the 'Data' folder inside a folder labelled 'Andym's Cool New Gramophone Songs', or whatever else you wanted to call it. JSGME just needs that one extra folder to guide it on its way.

Sorry I can't help Andym.

But you can count on someone who will.

Looking forward to mod.

Cheers SS,so presumably a ship with texture files and so on will need a seperate file for each type then all of them go into a "data" folder then into one named by me as required?Basically i am trying to add some extra ships via JGSME.

Do you want extra ships to appear by date or is it addittional skins by date you are after?

You can also use SH3 CMDR for this.

I am after replacing some of the stock ships with ones available in the downloads section to appear either randomly or by timeline.I just find it easy to use JGSME rather than the manual way as im a bit of a Puter Biff!
