Mods not showing up in-game?

gijas04 · 04-19-10, 03:05 AM

Hello there. Im new to this forum but not the SH series nor mods that have been released for previous versions however, in SH 5 I have dl numerous mods and installed them using the JSGME utility when appropriate. Anyway, I've only seen a few of those mods in realtime meaning in my current saved camapign game work such as the unlimited zoom mods but other than that the other mods don't show up? Now maybe Im not reading into this correctly but do u need to start a new game from scratch in the games campaign to see them in the game or did I do something wrong with installing them?

You don't need to start a new campaign (though you will when the patch comes out)

You just need to make sure that you are in port when you activate the mods. If not then it can make them unstable.

So I must be docked at a port or in the sub pen? and then Alt-Tab out of SH5 to activate them via JSGME then they will show up in-game after I start a new patrol or current mission? Just getting this strait...

Almost - you need to be out of game completely.

So go to the port , shut the game down completely and install mods.

Make sure your mod doesnt have a double folder name .
Example Sobers better crew SH5/Sobers better crew SH5/Data/etc etc

OK, I will try this. Thanks. Also, about the double folders comment in the below post I found this issue while installing the mods but thanks for pointing it out.
