Nup. Just merge the existing three separate mods into one mod (but check with Rik first as it's quite possible that this is already done in the "default" Atlantic folder) and enable via JSGME. Then forget about it. You would only add files to the Flotilla folder if each separate mod had files with the same name but with different content. This won't be the case for the EnvColors and SkyColors files as they have unique suffixes. It doesn't appear to be the case with scene.dat or the Misc folder files either, but you'll need to check with Rik to be sure. If they don't differ, then just copy a set into your merged mod (if, as I mentioned before, you even need to do this). If they do differ, then copy the Atlantic set into your merged mod and copy the other sets into the appropriate Flotilla folder (906=Arctic or 907=Med).

Yes, move the mod and skins into your \SH3 Commander\U-boat\VIIC41\ folder.

A few people have scratched a little deeper and have realised that there's a whole new world underneath the surface, but yeah, most people just "click the tick" and think no more about it.
