Hello,

I'm new to adding submarines to my game, and i would like to know how can I use a submarine iv added in my game? Iv downloaded the program JSGME, and iv installed it to my computer as instructed. In addition, iv also downloaded the Los Angeles class mod, and the skipjack ssn mod, and iv added both subs to the JSGME program. iv activated the Los angeles class mod, now how do i or wear can i find it in the game???. would it be in career, or quick mission, or war patrol, etc. any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated . thank you.

enable one sub at the time, if you activate more different ships can cause conflicts
where you'll find theme depends more af the man who make that ship, some are career playable, some not
i think both L.A. and Skipjack are career playable from 1941, in american carrer, but i don't know what flotilla, try them
you'll find them also in single/quick missions
good luck

the game is installed on my laptop computer, and im using windows 7 for my laptop. I installed the JSGME to the game folder, and for some reason i cant import the mods to the program, every time i try to extract the downloaded mod, to the program, I get an error message.

Okay, just to make sure, when you installed JSGME,

Did you install the contents of the folder to SH4, or the folder itself?

If so, uninstall the folder from SH4, and what I do, as it is just easier, open the JSGME folder, and copy the contents, and then paste it into the SH4 folder.

Then just create a folder in SH4 called MODS. Put your downloads in that folder, and then give it a try. If you have the room, on your desktop, before you install any mods, make a folder for your SH4 contents, and copy the Data folder from SH4 over to it, in case something doesn't work out, or you have to take a mod out, or for any other reason to save you from having to take everything out, and starting from scratch. Trust me, it makes things a lot easier in the long run!

The first time I used JSGME, I was impatient, and biffed the install. Went back and did it according to the instructions here at Subsim, and it worked out fine.
