Default Confused about Mod Order Install

I'm sorry to post this but I have just returned to playing. I have gone through the huge number of posts nd seem to get some conflicting info on installation order of MODs. I would appreciate if someone could just clarify:

I want to use RFB, TMO and RSRDC.

I installed according to the RSRDC sticky as follows:

RSRDC_SH15_v400
RSRDC_v400_Patch 2A
TMO1.7
RSRDC_TMOv163_v410
RSRBC_v410_Patch2B
RFB 1.5
Hotfix to RFB 1.5
RSRDC_RFBv15_v420
RSRDC_v420_Patch 2A

Started campaign just fine. Things run well but I notice that the RFB keyboard commands are NOT in effect.

So questions is: If I want to run these MODs, have I installed them in the correct order? If not, what is the correct order? Have I missed something, some MOD or fix? Can I not run all 3 together?

While I'm at it, can I assign current orders that must be given by clicking on the UI to the keyboard (ones that are not currently assigned eg. "go to Battlestations) and how do I do this?

Sorry to bother you but I do appreciate any assistance that someone can offer.

Umm....TMO and RFB do not work together. Pick one! Then load the hot fixes for the mod package you selected. Load then RSRD. Use the version that is created for either TMO or RFB. Also, just to let you know TMO has had work done on the traffic...not historical like RSRD but it is pretty good just stand alone. You could load just TMO 1.7 with the fixes and enjoy. Up to you.

Thanks AVG. Can I assume from your answer that you choose TMO over RFB? if so, I'm curious why. Thanks again.

I have run RFB for a while and tested for them. Since the last major work I have tried TMO out of curiosity and the fact that a lot love TMO. It is a very good mod. I will go back to RFB after I play TMO for a while. Both are great. TMO offers reworked traffic that is more active than what RSRD has but RSRD is working toward being historically accurate and is a different bowl of soup.

Ok, Thanks AVG. Going to go with TMO and RSRDC so the order I plan on (sorry for my anal side here);

TMO 1.7
The 2 Hotfixes for it
Then RSRDC_SH15_v400
RSRDC_v410_patch2A
then RSRDC_TMOv163_v410
RSRDC_v410_Patch2B

Am I good to go?

TMO 1.7
The 2 Hotfixes for it
RSRDC_TMOv163_v410
RSRDC_v410_Patch2B

BAM!

Just to clear up any confusion there are three variants of RSRD for 1.5 (I think).
RSRD for Stock 1.5
RSRD for RFB
RSRD for TMO

Since you are using TMO you don't need to install the stock version of RSRD. You just need to install the TMO version.

One is correct! There is one difference with running TMO without RSRD(at least I noticed) every other patrol you get a special mission to do like photo recon or drop off a commando team. Kind of a neat break in just patroling.

I installed and notice that the TMO keyboard changes did NOT take effect. Is this because I'm screwing around with adding RSRDC? I want to use SH4speak and it's messing that up dang it!
