Load it into your jsgme mods folder then enable from jsgme.

Did that, tried two different ones, no dice.

Did you have anything in your roaming cache files or user data files regarding silent hunter 4 and if so did you delete them before your new install?

Read this about new installations and see if there was something you missed:

yes, deleted all including saves and then did a deep scan which removed remaining data for SH4, did install and then added patch, then went to enabler and added rsrdc (latest) and pacific sound mod, and then tried two versions of map mods of which both uploaded, then addeed narwhal mod, that works, and then created narwhal career, but when i left port maps are bog standaed

Map in right now are FJB Navigation maps

do I need to add TMO 2.5 to the uploaded mods too?

Check the folder structure of the mod in your MODS folder. For instance, if you try the color map, you should have this:

..\MODS\FJB Color Navigation Map\Data

With two more folders inside Data, and folders inside those. An incorrect folder is the only reason I can think of why JSGME wouldn't work, other than a corrupted extraction.

You do not have to use TMO unless the map mod is specifically made for it. Are you using the RSRD patch?? I would not think not using the patch would affect the map mods but it certainly will helping with RSRD.

Are you sure both of those map mods are necessary? Does one over write anything in the other and are they compatible with each other?

not using both, but trying different ones, and none work. I do not have TMO loaded that was just a passing thought.

contents of FJB:

3 folders - brown, colour, two tone and nav pdf; in each of these folders there is a data folder containing - shaders, terrain and textures in these each have low and hi and tex folders
