Gents:

I've been away from the game for a while and was hoping someone could point me to the latest mod updates and popular add ons. I have SH 1.5 and use to play with RFB and I think RSRD and some of the evironmental add ons. I just can't recall what mods are compatible anymore :(:88)

Thanks

Get the latest RFB and RSRDC and you'll be ready to roll. Their readmes talk about which goes with which.

Besides what Tater suggested, might I also suggest installing OM (Operation Monsoon) found in the ATO Mods "stickie". This mod, also created by the maker of RSRD adds an Atlantic campaign fot the U Boats:yep:

I'm new to this as well and I'm a bit confused. I want to install RFB and RSRDC. The install instructions for each say to the effect "install the main file first, and then the patches" but I'm thinking I don't need to install patches? This is what I think I need to do:

1. Install SH4 Gold
2. Using JSGME install RFB_v1.52_102408
3. Using JSGME install RSRDC_RFBv15_V396

Sound right or am I missing something?

Thanks for all your help.

From the RSRD "stickie" section: Install with JSGME in the following order

RFB_v152
RFB_patches (if required)
RSRDC_RFBv15_v396

There is a patch for RFB, so don't forget that.

Which RFB patch do I need to install? When looking at the RFB download options I see:

RFB 1.52 File
RFB 1.52 Patch
RFB 1.52 ManualNow my assumption was RFB 1.52 File was the full installation package for RFB 1.52 and RFB 1.52 Patch was an incremental upgrade if you already had a previous version (say 1.4).

But what you are saying is I need to download and install both 'RFB 1.52 File' and 'RFB 1.52 Patch'?

Thanks in advance for your help.

You need both the main 1.52 install and the patch.
