Question Regarding H.sie Patcher

Delta Wolf · 01-10-14, 03:29 PM

Hey Guys,

Just installed Hsie's patcher and all is working ok, however i am slightly confused with regard to this part of the read me and would just like a little clarification if possible please?

On the read me it says....

3.1) Adding the new messages
The new messages, which are required for some of the fixes, can be found in two files named
_Append_to_en_menu.txt (english language) and _Append_to_de_menu.txt (german). As
the filename suggests, the messages contained in these files must be appended to your
individual en_menu.txt and de_menu.txt file of your sh3-installation. Instead of directly
editing the files of your sh3-installation, I recommend the following procedure:
a. Activate ALL your desired JSGME-Mods in the correct order.
b. Copy both en_menu.txt and de_menu.txt of your sh3-installation into the (empty)
\Data\Menu - folder of the Supplement-Mod.
c. Append the new messages to the en_menu.txt / de_menu.txt files of your Supplement
Mod.

It's part C that im confused about.

So do i just copy the lines to the end of my en_menu.txt? or do i have to add them to certain parts of that file?

I know this might seem like a silly question to some and i apologize if it is but the reason i ask is because i have noticed that the text lines have numbers at the start and i was unsure if i have to add the lines in the right numerical order?

Thanks guys

I would put the text lines in the en_menu.txt file in numerical order. You will see that everything is numerical. Be sure its in order.

Well it did not work, still getting empty messages in the message console

I get this waning when i go to install the supplement mod in JSGME

"de_menu.txt" has already been altered by the "OLC 'Gold' MkII ~ Option 3 ~ Environment with EDE and GUI" mod.
"de_menu.txt" has already been altered by the "ACM Reloaded for OLC 'Gold' MkII" mod.
"en_menu.txt" has already been altered by the "Thomsen's Sound Pack V3.2cg" mod.
"en_menu.txt" has already been altered by the "OLC 'Gold' MkII ~ Option 3 ~ Environment with EDE and GUI" mod.
"en_menu.txt" has already been altered by the "ACM Reloaded for OLC 'Gold' MkII" mod.

I wonder if i should take a copy of the the last file (ACM Reloaded) en_menu.txt's file and put it in the into the empty
\Data\Menu - folder of the Supplement-Mod. seen as that is the last file to be overwritten?

At the moment i am taking a copy from :silenthunter3/data/menu and putting it in the empty into the empty
\Data\Menu - folder of the Supplement-Mod.

Then adding the extra lines to that

any help or advice would be great... thanks all

Yes, normally that's exactly what you should do. Your silenthunter3/data/menu/*.txt files are the ones from the last mod that modifies them. So you should take that and add h.sie's additional strings to it.

But... Think of it like that: every mod you install replaces the files it warns you about. So whatever ends up in your data folders is the most "current" state. Granted, it can be sometimes incorrect i.e. if one mod replaces a file that another one depends on, but in this case it shouldn't really matter. I mean, as long as h.sie's additional strings are there, you should see them. If you don't, then you've either not installed something or the patcher didn't work.

Ok..

Seems to work if i dont load the game via SH3 Commander??
Maybe i need to remove all mods roll back and install mods again.

I'll report back...

@radcapricorn Thanks for your help on the ACM Reloaded scope filters....
Worked a treat
