You know, you can measure the maturity of people on this forum by the way they adulty & sensibly construct responses & discussions.:rotfl:

As far as I can see Kpt.Lehmann was just reafirming the stance of the Devs as far as 3rd party mod compatibilty goes. It's never guaranteed that it will work in conjuction with your files.

Now, in an attempt to end this. Reverie, I assume this MOD that you got on CD from a member here at SS has a README. Does it tell you who built it? If it does, contact them via PM or a thread that is actually titled so that they will instantly know it's directed at them. Secondly, what does this mod do?:hmm: While I appreciate that many people like to 'try out'/'test' many different mods because the name looks cool, how do you know that it's even labelled correctly. Just because I create a mod called 'Nude Mermaids for GWX' does not mean that I haven't actully bundled up all the best Hairy Gay Porn stars that are available on the net. See my Point?

End of the day, if it don't work, ditch it.

Not ignoring you, danlisa.It's Dove Season; there must be priorities.The Mod was removed days ago. If you know off the top of your head what file to look in for shades / tones / weather effect, and if the parameter is a hex value / binary / key word that can be changed simply enough, then I may dabble with it. Otherwise it's with the shipwrecks.Reverie

Not very helpful Brag....sadly, not totally unexpected either

@Reverie

The people over at GWX give a level of user support to those on this fine forum that is second to none. Of that I am sure you would agree. And as such, when a problem or a request for help and advice is posted with a clear indication that GWX is involved, it is only to be expected that someone from GWX will respond.
In my book that is nothing more than demonstrating how consistent and equitable every GWX user is treated here on SS.
Over the past few years I have dabbled with external addittions to 'test the water' (no pun intended) you might say.
Some have worked and some have not, meaning the eventual consequence, would on occasion necessitate the need to do a total re-install.
You made the initial reference to using GWX and whilst I admire your choice of mod I am confident you will most likely have read and digested the GWX manual.
Any mod used in addittion too said GWX is obviously at the risk to the installer.

I also recognise and appreciate you have thrown the mod overboard in recent days.

Those of us at GWX understand the frustrations experienced in times like this by all of us gamers.

However, I don't think this exchange of posts is conducive within the parameters of what most members of this forum are accustomed to reading as a means of a constructive exchange of positive and helpful advice/guidance.
Surely by your very use of the noun (son), you must have realised how the intended recipient would have perceived such a word.

We all have a choice in our game setups, namely, ditch either or both of the offending mods.

You have exercised your choice.........let sleeping dogs lie.

The GWX gang, not only have created a fabulous mod, FREE OF CHARGE, but continue to support it a lot better than any game publisher I know. If one has problems, all one needs is to post it on this forum and , TARAAAA, usually within minutes someone is there to assist you. What more can anyone ask for?

Thank you GWXers. I salute you.

[Jimbuna]

Now that is immensely more helpful

Ah, jimbuna. Sometimes it seems as though the Battle of the Atlantic is still raging.
Certainly the cure will be total video communication, and get rid of we antiquated dial-ups. Words can definitely be the source of any and many fall outs. So I have let loose of the leash, but not without setting the record straight.

While your loyalty to your young friend is commendable and enviable, it is misguided in this instance. It sounds like the old schoolyard He pushed me first routine, but truth be told, any objective reader can read that he jumped down my throat, not the other way around.

And while the adult response would have been to ignore it, I've reached that age where I feel that others need to carry the responsibility of what they do and say. I'm too old to turn the other cheek, but not too old to show it.

The trouble is, I can admit when I'm wrong, but your young friend can't. Prior to making my initial response, I contacted the Moderator as a matter of procedure to see if I was out of line. I wasn't called on infraction, but your friend was notified and took it personal. So many of these kids feel they can type derisive commentary with immunity. This is a forum, not a serfdom. I don't owe him any fealty or homage. And I wasn't addressing him in the first place.

jimbuna, you can testify on my behalf that I've had nothing but positive wishes and good will for all I come across here. You can also testify that I can get confused as to who I'm talking to at times, but all you Modders look alike to me.
The mistake I did make, and what your friend pointed out to me is / was my conception of our audience. It should be obvious to you by now that I post entries to entertain more than anything. However, and call me senile if you wish, I erred in not realising I wasn't in the company of a motley bunch of old sailors. It never occured to me that kits would be part of this forum. My adult humor in this instance was a bit salty (pardon my pun), and more suited to the guys at the shop. Even though I wasn't called on it by the Moderator, I should write him / them confessing that I feel it was a mistake. I'm not with the guys anymore.

I appreciate your oil on the water, and wish you and yours the best of everything. I am currently working on an extended piece, not to irritate those who despise them, but rather to clear my own contention.
I guess I still have feelings, after all.
