Newbie: Help with JSGME

RobT1 · 12-30-13, 11:33 AM

I recently got Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific Gold Edition. I got JSGME and understand activating mods and such. But what do you do when you activate a mod and it interferes with another mod(s)?

in the sh4 mods workshop section there is a stickied "jsgme" thread that answers all of your questions

JSGME

ok, I didnt realize that.

well I just moved it over there because it belongs in the modding section, that's a better place for it and now it is stickied

I'd just like to point out that this means the exact same thread is now stickied in both SH4 and SH5 forums. It's also floating loose in SH3. Should we sticky it there as well?

I would, for those new players who dont cross over to other forums its something they need but would ordinarily never see.

it quickly becomes no longer needed once a player gets used to using mods but there are always noobies looking for these instructions

but then it all depends on how many stickies you have there now, IMHO at some point around 8-10 it gets to be way too many stickies

Found me on this topic again!!

I was going to comment to Webster when you replied to Jimbuna about SH3 JSGME, then changed my mind.

Welcome to the briny deep RobT1.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean that one mod interferes with another.
There are two common scenarios.
One, when you start installing multiple mods, one will often overwrite parts of another. For instance, you install TMO, then install RSRDC. Some of the files of RSRDC will overwrite some of the files of TMO. That is intended and the game should run fine. It is important to make sure you are adding the correct version of the second mod, otherwise you will have issues. It is also important to make sure you have the mods installed in the correct order. TMO and RFB need to be installed first, then the associated update or patch mods. Then add RSRDC, then anything else.
The other one is if you install two uncompatable mods. For instance TMO and RFB can't be installed together. The second one will overwrite some files of the first and the game files won't work together properly. When this happens you normally get a game freeze of crash to desktop. The only way to fix this is to remove the offending mod.
If you have any more questions, don't be afraid to ask. We were all there once ourselves and are happy to help.

Now start chipping, scraping, and painting. The boat's looking kind of rough. I think pink would make a good color for the primer.
