Default Anyone Have the Definitive Mod Order?

I have been reading the rather large number of posts regarding the order in which mods have to be installed to get the 'proper' effect and experience, however there are many contradictions it seems. Does anybody have a definitive JSGME list of mods in the proper order depending on the users preferred loadout, ie. ROW, TM, RSRD or just ROW with stock, or ROW, RFB, RSRD etc.

Thankyou in advance!!

Note ROW first, RFB and then RSRD. Everything can go after this. My chrono mod can go after also. It just happened to end up first. Never mind some of the other mods....these are tests for RFB coming to a download site soon


Thanks to Reallydedpoet for showing me how to use print screen. Over twenty years of fooling with computers and never knew how to use it. I know, pretty bad.

Here is my Trigger Set-up, in this order from top to bottom.

1_TMaru_Trigger_Maru_1.7.6
2_TMaru_Sound
3_TMaru_GFX-ROW_Version_5
Final Addon for Reflections On The Water
ROW Sound Effects vs_8
ROW NEW SeaFoam from Jaketoox
ROW NEW Clouds from Kriller2
ROW Main Load Screen


Trigger incorporates much of ROW, so I just added five files from it.

The betterscopes 1.5 required manual menu.ini changes. As per provided in the DL.I think I removed two files from Prolonged DC attack that conflicted with another mod. The destroyers are still dangerous so I guess I didnt take out anything critical ^^

One thing Iv'e noticed is iv'e lost some updated interior ship textures... still working on that.

I'll post a screen shot once I get the new NSM and TM mods installed. I'll probably add some of the ROW files, too.

Is anyone using Kriller's ship skins? If so, where are you putting it in relation to the TM, ROW, RSRDC, NSM line-up?

Does the ROW Sound Effects v.8 mod overwrite any changes from TM Sounds mod? Also TRMSteve made a bunch of sound fixes for all of the boat classes. Are these duplicated in the TM and/or ROW sound mods?

This is my theory of how my line-up will look:

1_TMaru_Trigger_Maru_1.7.6
2_TMaru_Sound
3_TMaru_GFX-ROW_Version_5
Final Addon for Reflections On The Water
ROW Sound Effects vs_8
ROW NEW SeaFoam from Jaketoox
ROW NEW Clouds from Kriller2
ROW Main Load Screen
(TRM sound fixes, if needed)
RSRDC_P2_TM_v221
NSM 4.0
Kriller's ship skins mod
uniforms, watches, map tools, and other eye candy mods
music mod(s)

2_TMaru_Sound
3_TMaru_GFX-ROW_Version_5
ROW NEW SeaFoam from Jaketoox
ROW NEW Clouds from Kriller2
ROW Sound Effects vs_8
'Destroyer In Attack Run' Sound Man Voice Fix v1.01a
RSRDC_P2_TM_v221
NSM4 Classic
warships_retextured_v1.3

Hi all.

Got to be honest, I am getting more and more confused with all this.
I just want somebody to tell me the order in which I install TM 1.7, ROW and RSRD??
I also have numerous other sound, voice, special fx etc mods by third parties which I am unsure about installation order also.

I have read around 3 or 4 different threads regarding this and they all say a different order!!

Just wanna play the game with the best possible sounds, effects, realism etc but just dont know which way round to install!!

SOMEBODY HELP!! Wanna get sinkin' ships!!

2_TMaru_Sound
3_TMaru_GFX-ROW_Version_5
ROW NEW SeaFoam from Jaketoox
ROW NEW Clouds from Kriller2
(ROW Sound optional)
(ROW Loading Screen optional)
RSRDC_P2_TM_v221
Other sound files like SteveTRM's interior sound mods

Yeah, thats similar to what I had in the first place, What about Krillers skin pack, warship retexture and the many, many sound, skin and graphical tweaks that I have??
Where do they fit in?? (especially the new NSM 4.0)
I also have Map mods, scope mods etc.
You can see how I could get frustrated!!!

I love the game and just want it to be the best it can be!!! (my missus hates it because she gets neglected)Ha ha!!
