Not understanding how to install NG-Hud mod
« on: December 09, 2024, 11:19:30 AM »

So I DL'd the NG-HUD v3.6.1 mod and extracted it to a separate folder and get this;
VP-Modpack(jsgme)
    jsgmemods
      !#NG-HUD_v3.6.1
          #SAS
             ! ! ! NG-HUD_v3.6.1
                 font
                 gui
                 i18n
           Documentation
So I put !#NG-HUD_v3.6.1 in the jsgmedods folder of #SAS in the game folder .
Then what?  Do I go to game folder and execute JSGME.exe?  Does the SASModact execute the JSGME? Or what?
I'm a bit new to modding IL2 but familiar with using JSGME in other games.

run JSGME.exe and add !#NG-HUD_v3.6.1 to the empty area in the right frame, close JSGME.exe and run the game.
e.g :

Thanks that worked with my VPMod game but not with HSFX 7.3 modded IL2!  How does it install with HSFX 7.3 modded version?

in HSFX 7.03 you need to create Mods folder first then you do exactly the same as with VPM having just the precaution to rename the #SAS folder to Mods
 jsgmemods
      !#NG-HUD_v3.6.1
          Mods
             ! ! ! NG-HUD_v3.6.1
                 font
                 gui
                 i18n
           Documentation

Me thinks I’m using a “messed” up version of the game, all my doing, since I didn’t understand what VpMod and HSFX are!  I have VPMod and HSFX7 together.  HSFX7 in jsgmemod folder, activated by executing Jsgme.exe and run using Selector 5. No MODs folder!  So I added a MOD folder and put !#NG-HUD_v3.6.1 version for MOD in it, ran Jsgme.exe, then started game, but have no hud change!
So, I don’t understand (yet), but, if you agree that game is messed up, I’ll quit and make an HSFX version from scratch and ditch this one.
And, thanks for your patience answering my questions as I try to learn this game structure!

Of course it didn't work as you need to drop it in the jsgmemods folder and then activate Ng-hud using jsgme
