Not a rookie so much now

I re'd Harbinger's nice gift today and am thrilled. I sent him a private thank you.

I have a couple of questions before I delve into the hardcore modding. First, I have Winzip for unzipping and I have had trouble downloading/unzipping some mods; like Sober's colors mod. I never could get a data file to get all the colors files to load at once; only got data files in the 7 individual files, so if you tried to load more than one of them, they cancelled each proceeding one(same problem for DarkWraith big mod). Is RAR better for unzipping.

Now, I stopped watching the videos on UTUBE, because I came to realize, unless I had the same mod and then the same tools, I couln't replicate the play represented on any particular video!!!

So my second question is, what are 2-3 top Mega mods that are most popular now AND would people be so kind to provide a link to one, if it's not on this site. I have tried finding Magnun Opus, but no luck. Any input will much appreciated. I have been using CSP Magui Interface, but I find it cumbersome; like to open tubes is one page to open then close, another to set torps' speed/depth, etc. I have seen videos where the tube opening was just above the firing area.

Now a little update. The correct firing sequence nice people here put me onto, has led me to my 1st medal, 2 new boats, AND almost 400,000 tons of ships sleeping with the fishes!! 62 Merchants, 18 Warships!!! I am starting Happy Times in Aug. 1940, with 2nd Br Coatal Waters all ready in the bag. So, thanks to all again.

Have a Great Day
