That's the only one listed in JSGME when I activate both mods.
Yes, as I mentioned, I really don't have the capability at this time to mess with this type file. I'm also afraid that if I load them in the opposite order I'll have the same results, just reversed (no flags).
What does the Sh.sdl file do?
The Sh.sdl file is the game's master sound mixer/sound registry.

You can easily merge different Sh.sdl files using my SDL editor app found in \data\Applications of my UIs mod

I've never done it, but if the instructions are there (or somewhere) I'll fix it.

Hi TDW!
I have isolated (copied each .sdl file from both mods) to a desktop folder just to see if I can use the sdl editor and I opened one of them.
Is there a thread or tutorial on using the sdl editor.
I can only open one file at a time, so I have no idea how to "merge" the two.
Thanks for your help.

PS: If you like, I can open a new thread so as not to get too far off the track for this topic.

File-->Comparing-->Compare (select both SDL files)

then Tools-->Merge--> select merge option

Cool! I'll give it a go right now. When I get this "merged file", do I place a copy of each in both mods?
EDIT; I'm getting an "ERROR; Duplicate record found at 0x11E4D..." which I am pressing OK on all these.
Is this normal?
EDIT2; At the end of clicking OK on all these error popup's I got a message saying, the 2 files are not identical, then I saved as> a new file.

Yes the error messages are normal. It's doing a compare and telling you the differences it found. Did you merge the files before saving Merge 1->2 or 2->1?

Yes, When I hit merge>2-1, that's when all the pop-ups start. Once I finished hitting all the "OK's", I saved the file.
So the saved file is the one I'm going to replace in both mods, correct?
