Flags & Antenna mods

[Bakkels]

Thanks, but that was the one I already use Whenever I have my flags and antenna up, and I dive and go to the surface again, the antenna and flag are both still up but not moving. They're frozen.
Are you guys using GWX Integrated orders too?
Because IIRC that's the only mod that Jsgme warns me about that could conflict with this one...

Nope...

The only conflict I get is with FM Interiors, but it's fairly easy to iron out by editing the 'Commands_en.cfg' file.

I wouldn't recommend letting any mod overwrite another mod's version of the Commands cfg files, unless you know for certain that the new version is compatible with both mods. If not, you're going to lose entries in those files that are required for the proper working of one mod or the other.

Many mods that use those files include instructions for manually editing your existing ones to include what they need without overwriting what you already have.


Once you get the hang of it, it's not that difficult to compare different versions of those files, and do the manual editing that will include everything each mod needs. (Unless they use commands that conflict with each other, which is something I haven't encountered so far *knock wood*).

Yeah well, that's the thing; I used Winmerge to compare both the command_en from the DfaFlag_Pennant mod, and the command_en as it is before installing that mod. Because JSGME pointed out command_en as a possible mod conflict with GWX Integrated Orders.

So I took the additions that Dfa_Flag_Pennant makes (it only adds lines, it doesn't really conflict with anything) and copied them over with WinMerge. But still, my flag and antenna don't automatically lower..

Ah, I'm in the process of doing the same thing with several versions of those files... including some of Anvart's flags and whatnot.

I haven't played with any of the mods yet, but if you've successfully merged the files there should be no issues stemming from missing or overwritten commands.

I was told spefically not to merge gwx intergrated orders and df flags and antenna mod. Causes the exact problems you listed

If you have correctly installed mod and (if necessary) if you have correctly adapted mod, problems are absent...
It can be done by anyone, who understands the role of the mod files...
