File now extracted to MODS and supposedly activated with JSGME. Now for the test.......

Pray for me

With color contacts on? You know which ships are the enemy as soon as they're rendered! Okay, maybe you get half a prayer.

J/K, I loved that mod (still do), especially nice when you first start with GWX and have so many other things to get used to... it takes a little of the edge off. TBH I don't think I've played a full patrol yet without it, and I know I'm gonna miss it when things get dicey out there.

Glad you got the file extraction thing sorted out, anyway. Welcome to a wild wonderful world of modding your game.

Hi :-)

The .7z extension belongs to an opensource Zip programme called 7-Zip you can find more info on it here http://www.7-zip.org/. Its really very good, will open just about any zip file.

Pleased to learn you are sorted but fyi 7-zip is honestly not 'odd - ball' but arguably the most popular free file compression programme available today almost purely on the grounds it can compress files to a greater extent than all its competitors.

Don't forget, some of the newer ship additions still show grey because their alpha channels still require work on them but the colour will/should return to the ship icon when it comes into visual range.
