Default Merchant Fleet Mod 3.2

Good afternoon, with a little help from jimbuna I found the Merchant Fleet mod I was looking for.

I read the "read me" but am having trouble installing it via JSGME.

I am using GWX 3.0 Gold, and MaGuiF interface among other mods.

Is there anyone out there who is using this mod willing to help a struggling "shipmate" get this working?

Thank you.

Scott

You could have continued this in the same thread rather than start a new one.

I can't use the mod myself because of my computer specs, but it should be fairly straightforward. It might be better if you describe what you've done so far. That way we could have a better idea of what you might be doing wrong.

Sorry for taking up space, Steve. I guess I thought if there was a new thread I might get answers because my question about installing it doesn't appear on page 2 of the thread and get lost in the shuffle.

I tried to install the Mod last night and ended up completely corrupting a file "somewhere" in SH III, so I had to do a complete uninstall of the game, and start over again.

So, now that I have a fresh "new" install of SH III, I have upgraded to GWX Gold (3.0), with JSGME as my mod installer, and SH 3 Commander set to run as well.

My "plan" calls for installing these Mod's, but there might end up being conflicts that will alter.

MaGuiF Interface Mod Final
GWX 3 Willhemshave, St Naz, Schluse, X-tra ships
Merchant Fleet 3.2
Thompsen Sound Pack v 3.2
TMT v2
Captain's Log V0.3
16k Green Atlantic
Ship Names May 2012
Torpedo Damage Final v 2
Waterstream + Exhaust v2.3
Lifeboat Debris V4
SH 3 Officer faces

and last but not least
(when I am ready) - not yet!
ACM GUI reloaded h.sies Edition v1.15

Not a problem. It was just a suggestion, not a threat or a warning, or even a complaint.

Hmm. I'm hoping someone has an answer for that, because I sure don't.

Always a good start.

The best thing is to load them with JSGME. That way you will be warned of potential conflicts and can remove mods that cause problems. Load them one at a time and then test each one before loading the next.

I had it happen a couple of different times, got about 50% loaded and then CTD, then got almost all the way loaded and CTD again.

Having to do a complete re-install was a pain, but its water under the bridge at this point.

I'm looking forward to starting my career over again, and utalizing all these wonderful mods to make my experience just "THAT" much better.

I wish I had a dollar for every time I've reinstalled SH3 over the last seven years. As for restarting campaigns? Every time a cool new mod comes out I want to see how it looks in 1939, so I start over. I've never played past mid-1940, and I've only died a couple of times. I'm kind of on hold right now, not playing seriously until I can get a computer that will run the MFM and New Interiors before starting over once again.
