Maps

fred8615 · 02-13-14, 05:22 PM

There shouldn't be any conflict with another mod. I don't think TMO or RFB change the maps for instance. And if they did, they would only do it if you installed them after my mod.

If JSGME is installing other mods properly, then it shouldn't have any problem with this mod. Unless the extraction went wrong.

Understood Fred, working on it. your mod is so good its GO TO go in.

Red Devil · 02-13-14, 06:16 PM

I took everything down to stock

added FJB's maps
added pacific sound mod
added new narwhal K v1.5

nothing, maps still stock

Just curious ... those mods weren't double foldered were they?

If they were it would show as installed without doing a thing to the game.

good point merc but they are held in JSGME 'mods' folder and I activate or deactivate directly from there. Would it be better if I add the folders/files for the maps directing into the software.

I have tried reinstall, stock, rsrdc - the map mod does not work in any, nor does it work on saved boats not brand new boats.

I double checked the JSGME mod folder its 'mod/ and then the mod folder' so thats as it should be

I download FJB maps again and extracted to JSGME. Folderrs showing are colour, brown and two tone, I chose colour and it istalled. I noew have RSRDC, Pacific sound mod and colour map folder loaded , does not change maps.

The mod has inserted because it tells me when I tried to add bornw folder. Could it be because I have an HD 24 inch monitor, using an HD lead??

Your monitor shouldn't have anything to do with it. Frankly, I'm stumped.

Since all else has failed, the only thing I can suggest is taking the two folders inside the "Data" folder of the mod you want to use, and copy or move them to the "Data" folder of your SH4 install. Let it overwrite the existing folders and files when it asks. You will lose the stock versions of the files this way, unless you rename them first.

I'm stumped too, its weird. I also thought it might be win 8.1 but the software all runs fairly smoothly.

I'll do a manual input and rename the stock files. Get back on this, I am on night shifts now.

I do not run my mods from the jsgme mod folder. I keep them in the silent hunter mod folder only. This avoids errors.

JSGME is in my root silent hunter folder with its icon on the deck top. I do not use it for any other game so putting it in the silent hunter folder works more efficiently.

Even if I did have other games I used it for I could simply place a separate copy of JSGME in each game root folder and have a separate icon for each on the desktop. That way each desktop icon points only to that games mod folder and none others and not JSGME.

Check this for proper installation of JSGME:
