Dec 23rd fix problems...

[High Voltage]

ok here goes:

copy my saved games files to another location.
uninstall everything.
reinstall SH3 and patch 1.4
download and install GWX
download and install dec 23rd corrections
download and install SH3 Commander
download and install GWX cfg files for SH3 Commander
download and install JSGME
download and install different mods

does this seem right?

which are the absolute must-have mods that are guaranteed not to cause problems or conflict with any of the above?
I know about the 16km visibility mod but there are so many others out there. I was using Captain America officer Icons, Moosemeasure, Propaganda Posters and gramaphone mods...

I appreciate you guys taking the time to re-explain this all for the thousanth time and i promise you that when I'm back up and running i'll leave you a few sloops and lighboats to sink...

just joking mate...good luck

Not exactly:
copy my saved games files to another location.
uninstall everything.
remove SH3 and SH3 Commander folders from "My Documents"
reinstall SH3 and patch 1.4
download and install GWX
download and install dec 23rd corrections
download and install JSGME (in fact it's allready there as a part of GWX install, you don't have to do it again)
download and install different mods
download and install SH3 Commander
download and install GWX cfg files for SH3 Commander
start a new career probably, as your previous one possibly won't start with that new installation and if not in port.


I hope I didn't forget anything

If you have SH3Commander now you must rollback before uninstalling it

:hmm: I installed the Dec 23rd patch without uninstalling any mods and it worked just fine. I even installed the "test" being run right now and all is fine, as luck would have it. I've only had one mssg that files were overwriting others but can't remember which one it was, tho it probably was likely the Dec update.

I do agree tho that mods or updates should be installed while "In Base". If not you can corrupt your career. I know this for a fact as I've "screwed the pooch" quite a few times. But know this too, there are some mods that can be installed while on a patrol that will be just fine, as others have done it safely. Tho which mods they are I don't know. Just be safe and install any of them between patrols. Control that itchy finger that can't wait for a mod install. You'll be glad you did in the long run.

Here's my JSGME. You can see the Dec23rd update was the 8th mod installed. I might get in trouble for showing it but the last installed caused no problems either. Everything is running AOk.
