using new version of JSGME, cannot get mods to load

Lt Cmdr. Duke E. Gifford · 08-04-10, 10:37 PM

I just installed SH IV 1.5 again, downloaded TMO, the correct version of RSRD, the 3D TDC and Radar mod, and version 2.5 of JSGME. I installed everything according to the instructions, I think, but SH IV just loads the stock version.
JSGME is pointed to [C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\MODS].

The MODS are in this order:
TMO
RSRD for TMO
3D TDC and Radar

I had SH IV 1.5, TMO, and JSGME loaded before, and it worked fine. I'm doing something wrong I'm sure, but I'm not seeing it.

I just checked the profile, here's a copy of what shows n notepad:

Generic Mod Enabler - v2.5.0.150
[C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\MODS]

TriggerMaru_Overhaul_2
RSRDC_TMO_V502
3D TDC and Radar Range Unit v1.02

Do you actually have a copy of JSGME inside your SH4 folder? It will not work from the desktop.

Yes, I do. There is the icon of the installed JSGME program, the big yellow "G". There is also the text file that has the license agreement, and the config file that has this:
[MODS FOLDER]
Name=MODS
[JSGME DETAILS]
FullPath=C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\JSGME.exe
[FORM SIZE]
Main Height=517
Main Left=178
Main Top=126
Main Width=668
Main WindowState=0

and then in the MODS folder I have a config file with this:
[MODS]
TriggerMaru_Overhaul_2=1
RSRDC_TMO_V502=2
3D TDC and Radar Range Unit v1.02=3

and a text file containing the activated MODS list:

Generic Mod Enabler - v2.5.0.150
[C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\MODS]

TriggerMaru_Overhaul_2
RSRDC_TMO_V502
3D TDC and Radar Range Unit v1.02

All of that is actually inside this file: C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific

Thank you for the reply.

It's just funny that I'm having this trouble. When I had everything installed on a computer with Windows 2K Pro, it worked great. Of course, that was a previous version of JSGME.

Now I have Windows XP Pro on the same computer, with new hard drives, and I cannot get it to work. I've been fooling with it off and on for two months, with no success. I've completely uninstalled SH IV at least twice. I've completely uninstalled JSGME at least a dozen times, and gotten every bit of it out. Last night, I did another complete fresh install of SH IV, then downloaded fresh versions of JSGME, TMO, RSRD, and the 3D TDC and Radar mods. Tonight I installed JSGME, unzipped the mods with 7Zip, then had JSGME import them, then enabled them in what I thought was the proper order. But when I go to "run SH IV", I get the plain stock game, no mods at all.

Perhaps double mod-folders (as covered in the User Guide)?
