Default Correct install order?

Hi guys could anyone advise me on the correct order for installing these mods. I will list in the order I believe they should be installed but any help would be ideal.

RFB 2.0
RFB 2.0 patch
RSRDC v575
RSRDC V5** patch
Improved ship physics 2.8
Improved Stock Environment v3 TMO/RFB
ISE #1 colours
ISE #2 waves and clouds
MaxOptics IV for RFB 2.0
MaxOptics Binocular for Rfb
NMMO Map Add-on
NMMO Reverse Oceans Colour Add-on
Websters Upgraded Deck Gun for 1.5

Is this correct or should they be installed in a different order?

Can someone put me on the correct heading please!

It looks good and like it'll work, but when it comes to mods, I'm as qualified as a rat in the bilge.
Anyway, this is the order I would use:
RFB 2.0
RFB 2.0 patch
RSRDC v575
RSRDC V5** patch
Improved Stock Environmentv3 TMO/RFB
Improved ship physics 2.8
MaxOptics IV for RFB 2.0
MaxOptics Binocular for Rfb
Websters Upgraded Deck Gun for 1.5
ISE #1 colours
ISE #2 waves and clouds
NMMO Map Add-on
NMMO Reverse Oceans Colour Add-on

...unless one of the mods specifically states in its information that it should be in a particular order with another.

Thank you I appreciate your opinion. I have done pretty much that. It's just I wasn't totally sure about improved ship physics and improved stock environment. But to be honest I'm thinking of removing ISP. I don't like the way it resets some of the RFB features particularly the map and crew compartment. I'm thinking of trying TMO instead of RFB as well. Just to get a feel. Any opinions?

I use RSRDC on top of TMO. I never really gave RFB a try. Try all sorts of mod set-ups. You'll find something unique that you like.
The mods are the best part of the game. They take already good game and make it incredibly great.

What's your opinion of TMO, I have been considering giving it a go. Was there a reason you chose it over RFB? Also there seem to be more mods compatible with TMO rather than RFB which is one reason I'm thinking about the switch.

I just simply preferred TMO over RFB, no big praise in favor of TMO, nor any criticisms of RFB. I may try it again just for the heck of it.
TMO by itself is more a difficulty mod than a realism mod. It will really test your ability in the simulation to set up an attack and evade.

Default TMO/RFB

Hi Lato79

I'm not usually on SH4 Subsim site but I'm preparing to start a new career in SH4 and so browsed the forum this morning (5th March).

I'm using TMO and RSRD but thought you might find this link helpful; I did when I was two-ing and fro-ing between TMO and RFB:
