JSGME installation

I run SH4 (1.5) in WINE running on a Linux box - it is working great. Thought it would be a good idea to install JSGME to get some MODs running. I've done everything 'by the book' and can successfully install MODs, but when JSGME closes (exits) it crashes the Windows-window.
This obviously doesn't stop the important part (running the game), but I really hate it when stuff breaks - like my hull when 4 destroyers and a dive bomber do a merry dance on my head, when all I did was send a loving kiss (or 4) to one of their carriers.
Thank you and fair winds to all.

The latest version of JSGME needs administrator approval in Windows. Don't know how that equates to Wine or linux. Obviously JSGME was never intended to be run in Wine/linux and Jscones isn't around any more. So you're 'pretty far in no-man's land'.

To check if the changes it made are valid despite the crash I would find a tool to calculate md5 or sha-1 hashes on the modded files and verify them with the result in the SH4 folder. That doesn't check the order in which they need to be installed though.
