Not at this point. vickers hasn't made that particular interior compatible with RFB yet. His latest work for the Gato interior will, though.

I do not use JGSME. I simply unpack the archive to data directory. Question - should I also reinstall RSRDC after installing this patch?

OK, I just loaded the patch and started a new patrol from Pearl. It's March/42 and I'm in a Tambor class. I had a couple of questions. First, according to the readme, the Fleetboat speeds were adjusted. My standard speed is now 15kt., where it used to be 10. Standard speed used to be the most economical for Fleetboats. Is it still the most economical at 15, or should I set it for 10?

Also, from the readme, 6 empty slots were added to the CR for planesmen. I don't see it. The only empty spaces I have are the usual Hogan's Alley, Damage Control, and Gun crews. The CR has the usual 3 watches, and that's it. The readme said for all American boats, so I'm assumeing that includes the Tambor. Did I miss something?

I see empty spaces for planesmen (Balao sub, 1944), however on a regular, NOT wide screen monitor, resolution 1280 x 1024, crew icons are now a mess. Two placeholders for planesmen are overlapping with the adjacent compartment, same with engine compartment etc.

Perhaps it looks fine on a widescreen but on a regular screen it'a a mess.

Right on, guys!

DL'ing and manually installing the patch now as I type. Just started a new career so it's no problem to restart from Dec 8th again.

Do we have to restart the career after applying the RFB patch?

The patch should be applied while 'in port.' If this is done, a career restart is not necessary.

If patch is applied while 'on patrol', your career may be hosed.

OK, just tested the single mission to sink German U boat. I believe the boat is Besugeo. Balao class, 1945. Can confirm the empty spaces for planesmen. No probs. in widescreen. Can anyone see if I'm the only one who dose not have the spaces in a Tambor in 42'. Thanks.

Just took a quick look...I have the spaces showing on the Tambor in 42.

Perhaps do a reinstall of SH4. There may be some corrupted files somewhere from mod installation/uninstallation.

Serious repeatable bug.

Recognition book, Japanese warships, I usually browse the book from the end, when you get to the Momi patrol boat and click left arrow game always crashes. It didn't happen before the patch.

Any ideas on this issue? Or at least, any ideas how to intercept convoys now? On the german side, at least you have scout planes. But on the US side, its seems its left to dumb luck to find our targets now.
