What type of account are you logging into Windows with? a "normal" aka: "Local User", or an "Admin" account, with full rights and privileges in the Games folder? If you get things squared away, you would activate

1 TMOwTw
2. Bigger Better Protractors
3. Submarine School Missions

But is the Stock game running OK after you remove the mods, and clear the Save folder? Also, JSGME uses an ini file for its configuration, so be certain you are in the correct game folder and MODS folder...
Thank You Propbeanie for all your time spending to my problems....

I nearly get sick....

I never see the splashscreen for TMOwtw.
My c:\Game folder has all the rights as Administrator
I removed the save folder
The JSGME-cfg reads after enabling: TMOwTw 2.50=1
But no TMOwtw splashscreen...
Th plain game SH4 with U-boat missions runs perfect.

I'm afraid I have to play SH4 with with U-boat missions only.

Well, look in your TMOwTw folder then... going from the top, you should be

C:\Game \Gamename \MODS \TMOwTw 2.5

and below that should be a "Data" and a "Documentation" folders, as well as a "wTw readme.txt" file. When you select that in the JSGME window in the left-hand pane, and click the right-arrow button in the middle border of JSGME, does it take several minutes to come up with a pop-up from JSGME, warning you of file overwrites (which is fine to OK), or does it just do its business, and then the mod name is in the right-hand window? If you then look in the Game folder, do you now see a "TMOwTw 2.5" folder?

Hi Propbeany,

Thanks, thanks, thanks!

I reinstalled everything and everything works perfectly!
I don't know what the difference is, but everything works now!
I see a really nice splash screen with wheels etc.

Lots of thanks for your much help!
