Okay, so I was wondering how to get FMSel working for System Shock 2....
When I manually install the latest NewDark update for System Shock 2, the game works but I can't access FMSel. When I use ShockTool or whatever its name is, from the system shock forums to patch System Shock 2, I can access FMSel, but the game crashes as soon as I try to start it....
Is there some manual way to install FMSel in my System Shock 2 directory? I tried moving the files in the "doc" folder in the that appeared related to FMSel, but no luck.
Im sorry if Im dense, but I can't seem to find anything about this. I looked at the readmes for FMSel, but its one of those readmes that doesnt really tell you anything. Just sorta assumes you already know what you're doing.

open cam_mod.ini and read the description.
btw, what version of SS2 are you using? any mods, like for example translations? that crash might be worth investigating/solving.

Yes, Im saying I did that and it didn't work. And there are no mods installed.
And what about FMSel.dll?
I assume thats useful. But it doesn't exist in any of the manual patches. Only when I use the game breaking ShockTool does it show up.
Okay, checking again, I have a cam.cfg, a cam_ext.cfg, but no cam_mod.ini.
And Im using the latest NewDark version.

In the interest of sanity, Im making another post instead of editing the last one for a 5th time.
After 4 tries, I tried an offline install, and it worked perfectly.

You probably didn't allow SS2Tool to download the necessary resources during installation.

Oh, I allowed it to download everything. When it asked to download, I said okay. Every time. It just f*cked up, apparently.
