Mod install sequence problem

[warlimont]

A short time ago I had a CDT while running ROW/TM/RSRD with 2 extra mods- greenLamp and the Captain radio mod.

I cant really say what knocked me out, because vista wanted to send an error message to bill gates. hope he gets right on it!
but
i went looking through the mod posts and found the following listed in the install notes for TM for 1.4:
"19.) Can i run ROW with TMaru?

Yes. All row is compatible with TMaru, although i must caution against "ROW_Sub_Reflections_and_Roll_Pitch_vs_5", as the majority of the files in that particular ROW mod overrite many crucial settings in Tmaru. If you feel confident in removing conflicting files from this mod, id recommend in just using the submarine.dat files from that particular mod. The rest of the files have been intergrated into Tmaru."

So, I reset jsgme with TM first. ROW next and RSRD and lastly the addon for reflections.

I have a question and a noobie observation:
Doesn't jsgme load from top to bottom?
isn't TM and RFB primarily for gameplay? Although they do appear to have some graphic modifications.
isn't ROW for graphics?

So, those being true, would'nt it be correct to figure on loading ROW after TM and RFB
so the user would'nt lose ROW's eyecandy by later over-writes?

It does look with the large number of overwrites as each mod is added to the active list that it would'nt be too difficult for conflicts.

After just 2 days staring open-mouthed at this sim. just awesome!
