JScones, I found a bug.

JSGME doesn't like it when you put a = character in a mod name. Perhaps you could add a check for that character and prevent the user from enabling the mod if an = character is found? Otherwise they end up where I am now (manually disbabling the mod and restoring the JSGME backup files one at a time).

hello JScones,

just create a mod and name it as you like but put the = in mod's name .for example '' periscope with zoom=12 ''
when you try to disable it ...you will see the 'problem'

bye

Hi makman94,

the backup files are in ...\SilentHunterIII\MODS\!BACKUP\...
!BACKUP is a hidden folder.

Cheers,

Maybe that's the rason: JSGME appends the mod's name to every backup file, e.g. menu_1024_768.ini.Integrated Orders in which Integrated Orders is the mod's name and menu_1024_768.ini is the backed up file's name. If you remove .Integrated Orders you'll get your genuine file.
Now your PC should be able to 'read' it, in this case by any text editor like 'notepad'. Otherwise the file is corrupted...
