Merchant fleet mod question

bstanko6 · 04-25-15, 12:16 AM

i am not at "my" computer right now, I am at work. But I can tell you I downloaded the files from the first page of the merchant mod page on the sh3 mod workshop. It had IABL explaining everything and the links were in green. That's all the info I can give right now until 730 am.

One needs to change the skins manually with JSGME in-between patrols, IIRC.

Sublynx,

Thank you. From the forums it seemed that way. And that is fine with me. I love these ships. They look great.

The reason I asked is because the folders are supposed to go into Commander, not SH3. they will indeed change by themselves. To do this they need to have the proper labels.

I'm up way past my bedtime too.

You can install SkinPack copyng the file in sh3commander "Date" folder

Look here:

Great! I want to thank hauangua for that link too. I had forgotten that post, and was about to go through another full explanation, which probably wouldn't have been as good.

The reason I asked about your labels is because I have several downloads of earlier versions of the MFM, and some of the skin packs have the proper date labels on the folders but at least one other has them with labels like "MFM-v3-US+UK_Skins19390901", which won't work unless everything is removed but the date. I just wanted to make sure that I knew which labels yours had so I could describe what to do next.
