Support Which Beginner's Mod Options Should i Use?

Hi,

I have installed a clean vanilla SH4 + UBM.

I am trying to install THEBERBSTER's Beginner's Mega Mod via JSGME.

I have activated the "1 Game Fixes Only v1.1."
I have tried activating "2 MaxOptics IV for SH4 1.5" and was presented with a warning box with an avalanche of this-has-already-been-altered warnings asking me if I am sure I want to activate the mod. I am not sure which is why I am posting.

First, I am making the assumption I am supposed to activate each mod, one at a time by following the prefix number of each mod, but it is not working as related above.

Q1: Are the mods supposed to be activated following the numbers?

Q2: If the above is correct, am I supposed to activate each chronological mod with impunity and just ignore the warnings?

Your help is appreciated. I am an old man who gets easily confused. Please be patient.

Ahoy, Capt Codetrucker

As it goes, get everything set up, to the point of having the mods, dropped into the 'MODS' folder... once done, ensure that there is no zipped files inside of them. After that, reread post 1, on the special notes before it gets to the pic's... taking note of those mods mentioned that are not needed.

Delete those from out of 'MODS' folder... once that is done, then renumber accordingly.

Once that is done, then begin the activate process, by the numbers. As for the override notification... those in that list, will be swapped accordingly. Unless there is some major error in their being put together (which is a small chance, but a chance nonetheless... ) you 'should' be alright in allowing the override to go forth.

Am pretty confident that the work THEBERBSTER put into that compilation, has been tested by them & is about as error free as is humanly possible.

Hope this helps.

M. M.

Thank you, M. M. It helps a lot.

Accorfing to your guidance and the mods, I only had to delete/renumber one file.

I suspected the Q.C. had been handled. The deficit was not with the product, but with my lack of understanding and an unsympathetic gimpy noodle. LOL.
Thanks again.

First post in years. I have forgotten about owning this game & a couple of weeks ago Steam sent me a Wish List price drop and I got the U-Boat Missions add on. So, here I am again looking at mods for SH4 & I have a question about these mods in the Mega Mod Pack.

I know, by reading the ReadMe of the mods that any of them that are for GFO will not work with FotrS, but for the mod Stop the Shouting it says it's been tested with TMO and RFB.

Can anyone point out the mods that will work with FotrS, please?

Hmm.... With the latest version of FotRS-U, would say is advisable... to just go with the add in mods that the team includes with the work.

That & follow the ones mentioned of that were looked at to be useable such as vickers officers quarters interior mod, I think EAX sounds mod... also by vickers... & his battle flags mod. Last that I know of, at any rate.

Can check out the mod set, info on the 1st post for FotRS-U, found here:

Hope this helps...
