This is the ultimate collection of all the popular mods reunited in one package!
VERY IMPORTANT!
Uninstall every mods before installing IuB 1.03,
or the results can be desastrous and your safety will be not garantied!
Just kidding, but to insure stability of IuB 1.03, it is recommended to:
1. uninstall every mods you have installed first,
2. Rollback to SH3 your SH3 Commander if you use it,
3. Install IuB 1.03, and run SH3 Commander/SH3,
4. Enjoy!
Be advised that failing to do these steps, using this mod on patrol or
in a middle of career might result a Crash to Desktop (CTD) when starting a mission .
ALSO VERY IMPORTANT!
If you use other mods with IuB 1.03, make sure it is compatible first.
Especially if the mod modify the menu_1024_768.ini file (ie Sale's SimFree mod)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Three major mods are implemented in this mod:
- Real u-Boat version 1.45 (by Beery)
- Harbour Traffic 1.47 (by Rubini, FLB Sale's and Scirè)
- Advanced Hollywood Damage model SFX (by GouldJG)
That means that if you want to add another mod, you have to make sure that it is compatible with these three mods.
Modders of subsims comunity are usually kind enough to include two versions of their mods for compatibility.
I hope they will do the same for IuB.
New features from RuB 1.44 to 1.45 upgrades are:
-It now possible to sail on the surface with decks awash (mod by Beery)
-Updated U-boat individual number info for Type VIIC (Mod by Beery).
-Reduced renown requirement for Type XXI to 15000 for people who play with RuB Default mod. (Adjustment by Beery)
-Adjusted realism settings to allow for bug in realistic sinking times. -You can now Play 100% realism with NavMap Contacts unchecked (Adjustement by Beery)
-Removed 'give away' "We've been detected" and "Torpedo Missed" messages (Mod by Beery)
New features from HT 1.46 to HT 1.47 upgrades (by Rubini):
1. New Italian/RSI MAS motorboat exclusive unit.(mod by NoLine and also thanks to Marhkimov)
2. Tirpitz and Type36A are now scripted as an individual units.(mod by Cdr Gibs)
3. Few adjusts on traffic and ships nationalities on ports.
4. Six new german airbases and one new Italian airbase. One new USA airbase on north of Brasil (all with historical approach)
5. Some new Naval bases that are missing in RUB like Merthyr, Firth of Clyde, Firth of Forth and others few corrections on LND.
6. New B24 level bomber for late war air attacks on ports.
7. You have two SCRs: the main is a complete one with late war air attacks, minefields&subnets and friendly airpatrols.
The optional don't have minefields&subnets and don't have airpatrols, this way you can leave/enter friendly ports more quickly.
Note for Advanced Hollywood Damage:
For the fatigue model, go to the SH3Cmdr folder, copy the cfg folder, and paste it into the SH3 Commander folder, press yes when prompted.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note from Berry about the 259 days spend in port:
This is an early change that was made in RUb to adjust the sometimes ridiculously small training periods in the standard game. Players who want the standard SH3 settings can either insert the values they want in this file, or, if they want their Basic.cfg file to be unchanged, just remove the keys in the U-boat availability.cfg so that the standard Basic.cfg file takes precedence.
But the problem is even if I start a campaign in late 1944, I will get the War is Ended message, but will still be able to play the campaign and nullify the incremented date back to when I originally order the "purchase".
I don't know what is your opinion about that, but my feelings is at least lower a bit more of the days spend on base. Were talking about almost a whole year here.

The package is absurdly big. Almost a gig!.
A gig??? :huh: Have you used the 7zip´s and WinRar´s "Solid archive" function? It makes archives much smaller.

It already supported :) it was an addition from the Harbour Traffic Mod 1.47.
Plus, you will have a draggable Friend or Foe recognition flags on periscopes screens.
What I mean by Beta, is mostly for performances issues, to see if things were overlooked and needs to be addressed before the official release. I reviewed the game enough times, but I can't do it alone. With oRGy retired from the project by now, I am the one who continuing his works.
I'm expecting alot of people downloading the mod and pointing out features I mention that don't work correctly.
A thought,have you tried Terrapin's http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/ for hosting.That is where I got IUB.v1.02 tell Terrapin,I will personaly donate $50.00 USD.for the community, to his service.ie.site. I wish to support your effort, any way I can. :up: Done Sir's.

I can't run the 16 Km atmospheric mod on my computer because the frame rate drops to 1. Can you make an option to use the 8 Km atmospheric mod for those with slow computers?
Or, alternately, can one install the 8 Km atmospheric mod over this? Or, just copy the scene_dat file and the evn folder to replace the ones in IUB 1.03?
The thermal layer mod is an interesting one. It uses the AI_sensors file. Stiebler's radar fix uses the sensors_dat file.
Is this the same file? if so, can one use both?
irish1958
]] Moved bug fixes on first post [[
Hey - good documentation!
Bear in mind that the 8km range will have to affect more than scene.cfg; the AI and crew sensors are changed to reflect the better visibility as well...
Also, what are rubini's new officer icons like? I quite liked CA's for some reason - they seemed cool.
Another thing - that new interface mod, changes a lot of it? Dunno if you want to integrate the whole thing but I quite liked how they changed the ingame font (for NA: We've been blah'd type messages) to Courier, as used in the front end / main menu.
(Sorry.. babbling. Would like to test but no time and SH3 not on my machine at the moment.)
Cool it's not that big compressed 340 MB, and downloading.... :up:
But will give it a try after finishing NYGM campaigne first....sorry bro... got to play one at the time , to fully enjoy and give the proper atention to the Mods detailles and diferences....
Must be cool and brilliant Mod as every work you do bro... :rock: :up:
Thanks for sharing it man... :up:

Hello oRGy!
I hope you'll find times to try the continuation of your work soon ;)
For the 8Km, yeah, I am aware of the cfgs. In fact, that raised already another question in mind to know if the cfgs files in the 16km version have been tweaked properly. I have to check back my historic revision to see if I didn't overwrite something.
Rubini's Officer's icon mod was released yesterday, and I tried it and liked it. It a mix of the old CA OIM with the portrait of the officers on it. Pretty neat. Check out my thread on page one about favorite Icon Mod to get it.
For the interface changes, the majors changes is implementing BordeInstrumente 1.0. An upgrade from 0.9 previously in IuB 1.02 :)
Also I have implemented Navimap mod and Draggable Chronometer in the game interface. Pretty usefull tools to navigate with precision. Also I have compressed the characters in the Radiomessage screen to allow extra-large messages from the Irishred's mod.
There's also many screens/areas that have meen finetuned.
Here's some screenshots about the changes:
New periscope, using BordeInstrumente 1.0

New styles of icons and instruments:

Improved smoke:

I didn't have time to try the NYGM Tons mod. After IuB I will surely have a look of it. If I had to take a look before finishing up IuB1.03, I would surely have lost interest of finishing IuB :rotfl: .
JonZ,
Great work. I just want to correct some wrong infos on your "readme".
1. With all respect for Teddy Bär I can say that he isn't on HT mod. FLB Sale and Scirè are the guys who made some parts of HT 1.47 with me.
2. I don't release any "new officer icons" mod. Please find and credit the correct guy. ;)
And again many thanks to carry IUB ahead. I'm sure that ORGy is very proud and thankfully too. :up:
Cheers,
Rubini.

Hi Rubini,
My biggest appologies to my mistake, and my appologies to Redwine because he is the author of the Officer's icon :rotfl:
I probably mixed up names because of the same avatar you two have and name is about the same lenght and begin with R :rotfl:
I also made the corrections above about the credits.
Thanks for heads up :up:

JonZ, thanks for all the work and keeping IuB up to date! :rock:
Thanks Von, you have greatly contributed for the upgrade too ;)
Besides, if you are downloading it, I suggest to take a look in the parts where you are concerned to check if everythings from your mods are in orders :) I checked everythings but due from several mixes involved I can't assure a 100% accuracy. Some of the files involved required me to make some adjustments and make a compromised values.
But again, thank you for your valuable contribution :rock:

JonZ,
Thank you for all that you do for the community.
Thank you also for all the creators of the marvellous Mods without which all this would not be possible!
I use IUB since the first day and I am very happy.
Excuse me for the quality of my English.
Thank you very much :up:
:D l
Hi, I'm new to this forum and SH3 world as well
I've done some searching and found tons of useful things, tips and tactics so I'd like to say BIG THANKS to all the people for their effort to make SH even better :up:
Currently I'm using IUB 1.02 and some minor tweaks
my questions:
1] if it is possible to get only upgrade form 1.02 to 1.03 or do I have to download the whole package?
2] problem with filefront using public access... can't use FF :o only with IE the download starts (ok i can stand this) BUT the transfer rate drops very quickly to 1-3kB/s :roll: ...so what about to share the file through bittorrent?
Herr Karl
03-12-06, 06:28 AM
hmmm...File Front servers seem pretty slow for some reason. I have a high speed connection, yet I can not achieve D/L speeds greater than a slow dial-up connection for some reason. By the time I'm 2% into the D/L it has slowed to 25 kps....Ugh.
I guess I'll try another server...third one...btw.
Thought it might just be me. Starts off well then over a couple of minutes drops to nothing. :(
copy that, I've tried all the public servers but no way :-?
hosting the file at u-boot.realsimulation.com (alreday hosting IUB1.02) isn't possible?

Same problem here. Does someone have a reliable server that is willing to host it? What about http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/ website? They have IUB 1.2!
I understand your frustration guys, I'm sorry to hear all the problems you have with FileFront as it the only host I could find at this time for at least be able to download it while I am finding another way.
I've just written to u-Boot.realsimulations and waiting for an answer, which I hope will be a positive answer!
I will also ask help to Rage3D.com which I'm well known there too. Perhaps someone will be kind to help me to put the file to a public FTP or something.
Sorry for the inconveniences :-?

I tried to download this again Sunday. After ten hours I had 40%, and then they cut me off.
I would like to test this mod as I use !UB 1.02, but I really will have to wait for a mirror.
irish1958
I just have an answer from uboat.realsimulation
It just a matter of time now. A mirror site is mostly on the way :sunny:
If everythings goes well, the new link will be up in 10 hours or tommorow.
Patience is all we have to do for the moment, sorry for the inconveniences.
--------------------------------------
I would like to take this moment to ask for the fortunates who got IuB 1.03, how's the mod going?
I have fixed a bunch of issues since the first release and I wrote a report of my fixes on Page one (4th post). All the issues to fix and fixed are listed there, but these issues are mostly reported by me :88) .
if you were a user of IuB 1.02, report suspicious behaviors from IuB 103 if any.
Thanks :cool:
JonZ
Jonz, this guys on file front are getting Nuts bro....
I've been trying to download your mod since you've released it and it's impossible cause they only give me 2 mirrors for the download and they're allways ocupied... :rock: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
I'll whayt for the u-boat real s. s. link man!!!! :up: :up:
JonZ in the mods file you have "NavMap Contact-no tails" & "NavMap Contact-no tails-NoDash" but how do you keep the tails?
I need them! lol
Is it possible that I forgot the Tail Only modifier? I can't remember :nope:

I love this MOD. I've tried the others, but keep coming back to IUB. I managed to download this yesterday, and played last night over a new install. I have a couple of observations/questions/comments:
1) There is an interesting graphics "glitch" whenever you go to the UZO, or either periscope screens. After doing so, pull down the flag ID sheet...
2) The enhanced plotting tool's compass is off 180 degrees.
3) The Engineer's report and slide-out have different graphics for electric, air, fuel.
4) How do I get the original officer icons back? (lower left corner report icons)
5) I really like the NYGM crew fatigue MOD. Is there any way for me to integrate this without screwing something up?
I'm in the process of downloading the latest version from u-boot.realsimulation.com now - I'll load it up tonight.
Keep up the awesome work!

Jonz, have a question man!
Just finished the download of IUB, and the patch, now, do i add the patch at JSGME Mods folder and install it over your main modIUB, or just drag and drop the files into the IUB Mod before enable it? :up:

It is suggested to uninstall every mods before installing IuB. This may results CTD or features that doesn't work properlly.
If you have downloaded the u-boot.realsimulation version, you don't need the patch.

I tried to implement it, but at some point, I hardly know what the mod was doing. The fog fix thread was too confusing and many people seemed to not agreeing on the effects of the fix. I also tested it in Bismark Singlemission and I did not notice differences. So I removed the values to the original 16kmDark values to wait for things to clears up.
Hope it help.

Hello Montbrun,
1) It is a old bug from the Navimap mod. I know how to fix it but it a long process which consist to modify the entire Periscopes/UZO screen by bringing the map on the top of the stack. As it is, it located at the bottom of the stack and I will have to renumber all the sequential numbers for the 3 screens to correct the bug.
2) It was prefered that the compass was reverted because when you draw lines it often reflects the opposite angle you want to point.
3) Mod by Oakgroove and TimeTraveller. Changes have been made in revision 1 currently available on u-boot.
4) I will probably revert the Officers Icons back to the original IuB 1.02 on the next revision. I think the Redwine's Officer Icon was great because it combined the officer and his station unlike having just a picture of the station. Stay tuned for updates or comments.
5) Currently no. Because it involves .sims file and you have to replace essential files to make the mod working. So I put the Hollywood fatigue model as an alternative because it role is almost the same of the NYGM fatigue model. Needs SH3 Cmdr, read documentations.
Hope it help.

Yes and no. Fubar's skins have been downscaled to 1024 pixels instead of 2056, for perfomance insurance. I checked lately the compilation pack released by *can't remember who*, and few things were changed, like Deck textures.
I also replaced the VII skin by Konrad Krumm's VIIc u201 skin, to make a change of the old fubar's only grey skins. I don't know how's the public opinion about Krumm's skin, I put it in the mod because I felt that it was a very nicely done mod.
JonZ,
Thank you! Again, good work.

Hi JonZ! My name is Roger from Sweden.
Great work, but i have one question: Does this mod include the historical operations, bypassing the stock SH3 bug with dates and grids in the career mode from HT 47? I know you have included HT 47, but I must ask you. it´s very importent for me.
Thanks for this great mod! :up:

This is more a question for Rubini, he's the man behind the Campaign scenarios file. He largely contribute for merging the IuB/RuB campaign files with his HT1.47 campaign files. He also added little bonuses.
He may hold the answer of your question.
JonZ,
Thank you! Again, good work.
Hitch
No problem Hitch,
About the fog fix problem, after reading your post, I have decided to re-investigate the matter again by going back to the last thread discussing about it.
I have now edited and applied over the Marhv's 16Km Visual Range V2.0 scene.dat file with the values of fog fix (except for camera.dat), with LOD 1.
However, the Vampire Night Vision issue might be still present.
You can try it, just replace the scene.dat file
(Rollback SH3 from SH3Commander, then backup the scene.dat)

Well, I'm presently in my first patrol with the new IUB. I was not able to install with the JSGME. I did a fresh install of SHII; 1.4b patch; SH3 Commander rollback and I just couldn't get it to work. So, I opened up the unzipped IUB folder and drop the data and cfg files into /shIII root folder. Then I dropped the mods into the JSGME. And thank God it worked! :D
The new intro screen came up and I said, "YES!!". Awesome! Then I started my patrol and went to the Nav Map and noticed all the accesories...Awesome!...
Looking really great guys and this is greatly appreciated.
BTW...I dropped the SH3 commander add-on into the SH3 Commander root folder...I hope I did that part right?
Anyway, everything seems to be in working order and I'm heading back to my patrol with my new game. Will report any issues that come up.
Thanks again! Two Big Thumbs Up! :up: :up:

The JSGME problem, it like the third time I hear of this :nope:
As for the SH3 Commander file, you have to drop Cfg folder over the Cfg folder of SH3 Commander. If you did right, you will have Hollywood Advanced fatigue model available in the Fatigues model option.

ok, thanks for your answer.
Rubini: Is your historical operations from HT 47 included in IUB 103, like the Norway campaign in april 1940?
oh ****, I´m stupid:
Features at a Glance:
Upgrades most ingame graphics – from fire and smoke to terrain, ships and the interior of your U-boat.
Enhances usability and aesthetics of the interface.
New ships, planes, ports, historically correct convoys, and historical operations like the invasion of Norway and the sinking of the Bismarck.Visibility now extends out to the horizon – this means you can see 3 times further away than in the original version of the game.
No more empty harbours – many ports are now bustling with historically accurate traffic! Radio traffic is also expanded and historically correct.
Milk-cows (resupply boats) are now present.
Many other tweaks and enhancements – the uncompressed size of IUB is over 600mb
Sorry :oops:
I love this mod!!! maybe it´s the best one ever, but which uniform mod is the best one...Pascals or Totenkopfs? :-?

I had to hyper space back to port because my crew would not recover from their fatigue. Could be because I didn't put the SH3 Commander fix in the right place. I'll fix that and let you know.
This game has never ran this smooth before for me. The graphix glitches I have expeienced in the past are practically non-existent.
Getting late here, so I'll let you know about that fatigue fix then.
:D
Hi
It seems this has happened to a few guys but after I downloaded IUB and installed it on JSGME it would not load only it seeemed the original SH3 loaded I didn't see any IUB screen like in the previous version. though maybe I have had too many mods running so I did a clean install and tried again but to no avail I did notice though that when downloading to the mods folder in SH3 IUB also goes into its own folder in the SH3 root directory.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Hi
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
I had a CTD with version 1.02 and an 'old' version of JSGME. Installed the newest version and no problems any more. Now with 1.03 i've updated JSGME again and no problems.
Thanks Floyd
I'll give it a try

JonZ,
AAHH!! My emblems have disapeared :o!! Seriously, I'm starting a new career and the mod that let you have an emblem right from the start without a certain amount of reknown seems to be missing.
Also, the crew efficiency per compartment seems a lot lower than I remember. Is that part of the "Hollywood" mod (I'm using 'No fatigue Holl' through JSGME)?
Thanks!
Hitch

Sounds like a RuB Fatigue system. Have you installed RuB Full or selected RuB Fatigue in SH3 Commander?
JonZ
I love this mod!!! maybe it´s the best one ever, but which uniform mod is the best one...Pascals or Totenkopfs? :-?
I love the Totenkopf versions because textures looked less cartoonish than the Pascal. I am however not sure about the colors. I could easily fix the color with Photoshop.
I think I will use the RuB Color shemes in the next release.

Was that part of IuB 1.02? I seriously never paid attention to the emblems, but I know where to fix that. All I know is I lowered the number of days spent on base for selecting an emblem (1day instead of 14).
JonZ
JonZ,
I assumed the emblem mod was part of IUB :hmm:
As far as the crew compartment effectiveness, it seems to only occur with the the Type IIA/D's Torpedo Room...I can never get it to full strength no matter how experienced the crew members are. This MIGHT be related to SH3 Cmdr...does that program alter this?

Rollback and run the game without Cmdr, post the results. if the problem still there I will have to check this evening when I'll come back home.

OK,
The compartment issue seems to be related to SH3 Cmdr somehow, as it doesn't happen when I load SH3 direct. It doesn't seem to matter which crew profile I choose. This didn't happen w/ 1.02 :hmm: :hmm:
Unless you can think of a reason why IuB might effect this, I'll bump it.

Hey Doc Jonz...I dropped that config file provided for Commander in the right place like you suggested, and it cured the fatigue problem.
Thanks!
I just did a second patrol and there were two Liberty Cargo's just sitting in the ocean at 1 knots on my way to my patrol zone in the north Antlantic. My convoy contact and engagement was all normal. This was in April '42 with a VIIC.
If I have issues with my next patrol, I'll do another clean install etc. just in case I corrupted my manual installation. Which is highly possible.
If I feel the need to do the clean install again, I'll skip the Mod Enabler and follow your manual instructions this time...we'll see.
Just trying to give you some feedback as you are the doctor. :lol:
I'll let you know this evening...

03-15-06, 04:35 PM
At the end of my (rather successful - 30k tons including an Auxillary Cruiser, using the Hollywood Living Crew Fatigue Option) first patrol, I was thinking that I hadn't seen any neutrals. This was a major factor early-war in 1.02. On my return to Wlihelmshaven, in very rough seas, I had a contact - Small Cargo vessel, long range - headed WNW, outbound from Norway. In the past (1.02), this vessel usually would have been Norwegian, and therefore untouchable. I plotted an intercept course, and, when I got within 2k m, I submerged, not wanting to be spotted, for a clean shot, if this vessel was fair game. I needed to make it count, because I only had 1 stern torpedo left. The seas were playing havoc on my crew, trying to maintain periscope depth. I had a very hard time making out the nationality, but finally, at about 700m, and during a lull in the waves, I could make out the flag. It was Polish! This ship was trying to make it to Britain, after the downfall of Poland. The Polish vessel was having a hard time in the rough weather, and I maneuvered for my shot, goinng for a shallow, impact pistol run. Needless to say, there is one less Polish cargo ship going to make it to Britain.
Great MOD!

I've found the emblem problem. I can fix it, but I liked the fact that you have to earn it on first completed patrol :shifty:
Besides, an option to allow that should be available on the next SH3 Cmdr release.
Should I fix it?

How about this:
I tweak the Flotilla Emblem for the first patrol, then unlock the other emblems with default :hmm:
By the way I also found out that there is a problem with the cfg file of the Sh3Commander.
There was a fix for the TypII boat, but the link is not working anymore :nope:
I am trying to get in contact with GouldJG to fix this issue.
EDIT: I have maybe a temporary fix.
I've downloaded the 8hours shift version, copy pasted the [Compartment] part and pasted it over the old compartment of the Medals and renown.cfg with the notepad. It raised the efficiency of the torpedo room.
Jonz bud just installed your mod and played it for a whyle, and a

Since i thought your mods sound files where litle soft for me, i whanted to includ mi old sound files that i've joyened toghether for almost to m.
The problem came after install mi personalised sound files mod, was durig the Naval Academy 3th exame, that you've got to shot down at list 5 planes...and after a while the game CTD...tryed a cople of times and allways the same thing and this windows error message:

FWIW, I won't mess with any sound-settings in SH3, (changing format, or attributes such as quality, bit-rate, stereo/mono, etc).
It's easy to crash the whole game, merely by changing a mono .wav file to stereo.
The only changes I would make is perhaps a sound-patch/mod that fixes default sound-files, and only if needed.
You might try a test, changing sound quality of a often used sound-file (i.e., upping kHz quality). You'll know pretty fast if it's acceptable or not.
I'm not sure of anything as I never modified sound files yet, but that can be a part of your problem.

Thanks a lot Jonz,...Just finished a new sound compilation that doesn't include folder i used and sounds, so been downloading on U-boat realsim. for about an hour and i think it stayed much better.... :up:
No weard explos. sounds .... :D
I really think it was that blasted sound....It hapend the same with the NYGM Mod...with the same sound... :up:

There are almost 2 several ship types, which are not included in your great mod, like Essex Fleet Carrier and Converted Whale Factory. I use them and they are very nice. ;)
I love this mod!!! maybe it´s the best one ever, but which uniform mod is the best one...Pascals or Totenkopfs? :-?
I love the Totenkopf versions because textures looked less cartoonish than the Pascal. I am however not sure about the colors. I could easily fix the color with Photoshop.
I think I will use the RuB Color shemes in the next release.
I agree with you, Totenkopfs is beutiful, but I think Pascals "eagles" are better and more realistic.
One last question: are you using the last improved convoys RND file from 2005-10-08?

I am not planning to include additionnal ships, it is not my intentions right now.

Your wish will be granted.
I am doing some graphics editing right now, using both Pascals, Ace and Totenkopf mod. Both combine, I think it can be a great addition.

OK...I went ahead and did a full re-install and manually installed. I tried the JSGME way first, but alas no go. This is how I did my install:
I did a fresh SHIII, patch 1.4b, Sh3Com, everything.
Installed data file into SHIII folder.
Dropped the Mod folder into the freshly installed JSGME.
Dropped the SH3Com folder into the Sh3Com/conf folder.
Started a new patrol in '42 and everything is working fine for me.
Why I had to do the manual way I'll never figure out. I had no other mods installed. Hell, I'm happy as a clam that it is working normally.
I didn't see the Hollywood Mod alternattive though when I loaded SH3Com. :hmm:
I could have missed something or because of the way I had to use to activate the new Mod could have something to do with it.
Oh well, it's working rather well and without glitches.
I'm going sailing...... :rotfl:

It´s wonderful, but I missing pascals "eagles" who are in white instead of this yellows.
But that is only mine opinion. very nice! :rock:
How about this:
I tweak the Flotilla Emblem for the first patrol, then unlock the other emblems with default :hmm:
By the way I also found out that there is a problem with the cfg file of the Sh3Commander.
There was a fix for the TypII boat, but the link is not working anymore :nope:
I am trying to get in contact with GouldJG to fix this issue.
EDIT: I have maybe a temporary fix.
I've downloaded the 8hours shift version, copy pasted the [Compartment] part and pasted it over the old compartment of the Medals and renown.cfg with the notepad. It raised the efficiency of the torpedo room.
JonZ,
It seems that the Medal and reknown.cfg from 1.03 is the problem in both cases (the compartment & emblem) :) I can see where to edit the entries to reflect my emblem prefs, but do you know which compartment # the Type II's torp room is?

The eagles in the Pascal's uniforms were 'Yellow', very pale green/yellow. In fact, all the elements of the Pascal's uniforms are too much highcontrasted that they loose the true colors values, making them looking very bleached and making the sailors look like zombies. That was one of my key elements to make the change from Pascal for the Totenkopf (in respect of Pascal's works).
I can tone down a little the orange of the eagle, but it will not be white. The armpatches are yellow anyway, I assume that if they are yellow, the eagle must be the same color.

Hi JonZ,
As promised here is my problem so far with the further excellent iub!!
This is from the other thread:
Only minor thingy I have is that when you want to enter the speed in the TDC manually its a bit harder to figure out where to press on the speed dail to set the speed.. On the original dail there was a line for every knot..and thats gone now.
and this one is new:
Something else happened to me last night as well. I just don't know if its a known flaw of the game or something related to the new IUB, or that I just have to do a clean install of SH3 and the IUB mod but anyways.....I came across a C2 Cargo last night and put 2 torps in it, causing it to sink within about 5 min. game time. But it didn't show on my patrol log and didn't get credit for it. It was an english C2. On the same mission I was able to sink 3 other ships including another english C2 before running into this flaw?

I heared the TDC dial complaints, I'm now pleased to announce that it been replaced by a new one with precise knots lines. Will be available on the next release/patch.
About the C2-C3 cargos not credited, That's a tough one. I have few reports of this. I suspect the zone.cfg file.

That happened to me once with 1.02.
That happened to me once with 1.02.
Maybe it an internal SH3 bug. I don't know. I experienced 2 uncredited cargo ships in Stock Sh3 before and it was because a DD misfired on a cargo when I was on her legs, and the other time is because I quit and saved when a ship was going down.

Yeah I know, it took me 4 days to get it right!
Better late than never... :rotfl:
JonZ,
I just went through a bit of what used to be bad weather (no rain, med fog, overcast, but wind 10 mps) in a VIIB in late 1940 and the crew could still man the DG/AA and move external torps. They also did not change into oilskins even after resurfacing in such conditions. Has this changed from 1.02?
Also, I ran into the no tonnage glitch for a C2 in that last patrol as well.

What you experienced is an implemented feature of RuB 1.45. RuB has incremented the Storm condition for maning the DG at 11Km winds and 0.1 Rain intensity. Since RuB 1.45 was one feature I decided to merge, I made the u-boat to adapt the configs alike the RuB files.
One thing I also can tell about the same configs files, if you go manually just below 8 meters depth you can sail with the deck awash, but you will unfortunately be able to use the DG as well.
I did not find an alternative solution to make it happen without having sailors be able to use the DG when sailing awash.
This can be debatable. This a features that doesn't really interfere with other files and can be readjusted for realism. I don't know what Beery had in mind when he set these settings. If most people find these settings not historicaly correct, I will be pleased to change the settings like it was.
As for the C2-C3 going under without beign credited, I'm still investigating this. I still suspect the zone.cfg file, which is BTW the same exact file of Hollywood Advanced Damage mod. The file role is to determines the conditions for sinking ships and damages (HP).
Maybe something was messed up in there.

If it a IuB bug, I appologize. As far my researches has gone, I can't find any solutions. Everythings that relate ship damages and credits system haven't been touched. I even compared the zon files and zone.cfg files from the original and nothing revealed me something wrong.
Just hope someone with more knowledge than me will point me out the solution if any.
JonZ
Just to let you know, I'm preparing a patch for IuB 1.03 for the official release.
There's been alot of fixes since the beta and I thank you people for the precious help for pointing me the bugs.
I'll be releasing the patch first and the full Standalone 1.03. I cannot proceed the other way because of the agitation of the release of GW.
I hope to release the patch this evening.

Ships position graphics,do not appear on + zooms,on nav.map or TDC.screens. Is this part of the v1.03 mod.?If it is, I can not use this mod.without a repair fix. Eyes,attack plotting are Nav.Officers job.They should be included.It's RL.
Also: There is no tail on Sub.graphic on any map screen. dissorientating course awareness.This needs correction badly.
This is a game,for enjoyment. This BETA,needs inprovement,before realease,IMHO. :hmm:

Well, I think this is it.
I played a bunch of games with IuB 1.03 and I think it all good for an official release.
With GW on the way, I think it better to let her ball rolling and start thinking about 1.04 or something.
What do you all think Kaleunts?

i guess it´s "integrated orders mod" by chomu (me likes it too :P)
and
"NavimapModV1" made by FLBSales
They should be available at terrapins site...
JonZ, Per.Your Request.
Kudos,for your efforts,and I agree,you need help,but to dissrepect the hand that is feeding you,dosen't get it. Are you aware? That I donated hard cash to terrapins site...so that both you and the comunity could enjoy hosting. This was because of your origional request for help. Boy Oh Boy,You dissed me off! BAD!This is, My point of view.
#1 SHIII bug, Base was changed to Kiel,pop-up notice,must click 6 times to acknowledge.It is not correct orders.
#2 Wound Badge,when presented in game,would not apply to wounded Officer.Notice;he already had it,he didn't.
#3 Flag.tga,will not pull down,sometimes.
#4 U Boot w/out tail,on nav.map,is disorientating as to course.Compass is difficult to read,to cluttered,needs N,nne,NE,ene,E.so-on around,just a thought.
#5 It's a good new game! Didn't notice hit points,being less.Flack gunner,does not fire on PT.boot,hit same; 7 times w/deck
gun,no sinky,little effect.
#6 Install--Only worked w/extract, to MOD.folder,C&P goofed-up,maybe me.
#7 Damage Control: TOO REAL! Great,Not complaining.
#8 Loading screen & Das Boot clips, COOL !
#9 Sonar, i.e.. Hydrophone indications, need to be darker, IMO.
#10 Pin-up girl not working in radio-rm.,placket in place,not cool.
#11 Not credited,for sinking C-3. I saw Her blow-up,30 min.after torpedoed ?Escorts keeping me down,no fish left.
#12 Ships graphic, doesn't show up in + screens of nav.map,or TDC.
These are observations of Beta, Feedback.
Yours, in IUB.,Donut
PS.I like Redwine's officer icons.
Quote from you:Add an option for 8km for low end computers. [DONE] option--- where?---
FLAGS: It is a old bug from the Navimap mod. I know how to fix it but it a long process which consist to modify the entire Periscopes/UZO screen by bringing the map on the top of the stack. As it is, it located at the bottom of the stack and I will have to renumber all the sequential numbers for the 3 screens to correct the bug.-- NEEDED !---
#12 Oh yeah,It's damn dark at night! Last question:Can I get ships position indications on TDC.screen back?

#1 SHIII bug, Base was changed to Kiel,pop-up notice,must click 6 times to acknowledge.It is not correct orders.
Stock SH3 bug, Nothing I can't do. Or you tried to resume a campaign which is not recommended.
#2 Wound Badge,when presented in game,would not apply to wounded Officer.Notice;he already had it,he didn't.
Same as #1, or something I can't make out in your sentence.
#3 Flag.tga,will not pull down,sometimes.
Can't understand what you mean. Beside, I have no Flag.tga in the mod...
#4 U Boot w/out tail,on nav.map,is disorientating as to course.Compass is difficult to read,to cluttered,needs N,nne,NE,ene,E.so-on around,just a thought.
Latest patch include the tails as an option for people who downloaded the early version on FileFront.
#5 It's a good new game! Didn't notice hit points,being less.Flack gunner,does not fire on PT.boot,hit same; 7 times w/deck
gun,no sinky,little effect.
the last Patch 1.1 correct some HP features.
#6 Install--Only worked w/extract, to MOD.folder,C&P goofed-up,maybe me.
Again, can't make out what you are saying. Sorry.
#7 Damage Control: TOO REAL! Great,Not complaining.
#8 Loading screen & Das Boot clips, COOL !
#9 Sonar, i.e.. Hydrophone indications, need to be darker, IMO.
#10 Pin-up girl not working in radio-rm.,placket in place,not cool.
Opinions are not bugs.
#11 Not credited,for sinking C-3. I saw Her blow-up,30 min.after torpedoed ?Escorts keeping me down,no fish left.
I believe it a stock SH3 bug, but again this issue is unknown or unconfirmed. I tried my best to fix the issues, but the reasons why it happen still obscure.
#12 Ships graphic, doesn't show up in + screens of nav.map,or TDC.
They show fine here, maybe a bad install or unpatched??

FAQ from the Documentations of IuB:
Q6: After installing IuB, I get a black sky during the daytime.
This issue is possible due to other mods interfering with IuB through a faulty installation of IUB and SH3 Commander. If this happens, use the “Rollback” option in SH3 Commander, disable IuB in JSGME, and then enable it again. To avoid similar file problems with *any* mod in the future, ALWAYS rollback SH3Cmdr BEFORE installing/enabling new mods. Whilst usually not a problem, it is always a good habit to get into to ensure that you limit the potential for file clashes.
#13 What do you find so difficult to read. DDDD's in english,I have no talent for.
I have no talent to read uncomplete sentences, abbreviated or "leet" speak neither. Plus I've learned english in my early 20s :oops:

I don't know if anyone else has noticed this or not and I didn't see it on the list of corrected bugs on the v1.03 readme file but I've noticed when checking the nav chart (IUB 1.02) if you look at the compass on the lower right hand side of the chart that in-place of an 'E' for east there is an 'O'. It's not a biggy, just wondered if anyone else has seen this :hmm: . (This skipper spends most of his patrols at the nav center :arrgh!: )

I have yet to update the current version of IuB because of the weight and heavy traffic on u-boot. So you have to apply the patch.
I'll probably put an updated IuB when there will be some more revisions and additions, like IuB 1.04.

Jonz, thank you for the quick response to my query ;) . So now my next question is, do I unzip the patch into the IUB 1.03 folder within the Mods folder or do I unzip into the Mods folder then activate? :hmm:

Unzip on the IuB within the MODS folder. Don't forget to erase the other IuB options. The patch have restored some features that need some of these options to be erased. Then reinstall with JSGME.
Don't forget to Rollback SH3 Commander too before each installs/

Sir,
I installed your 1.03 full version via the mods program and it works fine. Now I have downloaded the patch and also installed the patch 1.1 via the mods folder also. After I unzipped with 7 zip I got a 1.03 version 1.1 patch folder and placed it into teh MODS folder and installed with JSMGE. I didn't place the files inside the 1.1 patch folder into the 1.03 but instead used JSMGE alongside teh 1.03. Is that OK?

Yeah it should works too. Just make sure that the folder structures are correct. If you don't get Overwrites warning in JSGME it likely that your folder structures are incorrect.
The correct structure should be something like this
../MODS/IuBPatch_v1.1 (or the name you want)/data/..
Hope it helps.
JonZ (or anyone that may have the answer)
I finally got to play with this new version of IUB and so far, everything looks great :rock: :rock: :rock: . Now my predicament is as follows:
when I loaded the new version along with the patch into the Jones enabler, it was listed in the available column as 'Inproved Uboat 1.03' and that was it. I enabled, then while playing noticed that my contacts had no tail. This brings me to the 'meat' of the question, was there also suppose to be a listing of availble options on the Jones enabler 'available' column for enabling? For if there was, it didn't on mine. Which brings me to the next question, what is (if any) the default settings (in terms of the options) for this patched install (ie: no tails, 8k, etc.)? I'm trying to figure out if I have to 'warp' back to port so as to de-activate then delete what options I don't want or if there is an easier path :doh: Please advise (I know that you've been busy and all), but I appreciate any assist :up:
Thank you :cool: Great job :rock: :rock: :rock:
PS: What is the purpose of the 2 sheets (1 in german, 1 in english) of pull-downs that have speed and time listed :doh: ?
The tails options don't needs you to go back in port to make the changes since it just .tga masking.
However, 8km and 16km visions need a return to port AND a rollback of SH3 commander to be sure.
JonZ
Thank you for the quick response but I was wondering, as mentioned, whether there was a default that the game will take if all the options were inadvertently enabled and whether or not there should have been a listing of options in the 'available' column of the Jones enabler.
Thank you :up:
PS: I do not use the Commander or any other mods other than Inproved Uboat.
Check your MODS folder installation again. It sounds that the files included in IuB mod folder didn't copied into the your current MODS folder, thus why JSGME don't list them all.
As it turned out, I uninstalled the Improved Uboat Mod & the Patch, then deleted them. I then reinstalled first the Improved Uboat into the SH III Mods folder then the Patch into the Mods folder also. After enabling the Improved Uboat then the Patch I closed the Jones Mod Enabler. When I called up the enabler again then were the optional mods listed on the availables listing. I enabled the ones I wanted to, but have not had the chance to play... had to get ready to go to work :damn: . Will let you know how it went. Thanks again JonZ :up:
Torp.tube doors,open, and close. But I get no written message to verify same.Q to open selected tube,or W to close,no message for any tube selected.Surely this is not part of the mod? Y key cycles tubes correctly,Q & W keys are maped correctly in SetKeys.Just no Verification messages. Please address this issue. :hmm:
Thanks, donut :hmm:
I would like to apply one very specific file modification from the IuB 1.03 . It is the IuB NavMap Contact no tails no dash option. I suspect this is simply one (or maybe two) .tga files to accomplish this. Is there a way I can obtain just those small files from the IuB ? Thanks!!!!

I downloaded the latest versions of both before attempting to extract....after reading about a number of 7-zip problems here in the forums. I think I've now downloaded it around 10 times now...each time the byte size matches that listed on U-boot, but 7-Zip (ver 4.32) calls it an unsupported archive and WinRaR (3.60 beta 1) says there's no archive.

I finally got to go on a patrol after (what I thought) getting everything running right (cloud problem, tails, etc.), but I have noticed a couple of things during the patrol...
1) my crew are experiancing fatigue (something I thought was removed) and no matter how long I put them in their racks (days), they are still fatigued and not improving. (I do not use SHIII Commander or anything else but IUB). How can I get rid of this fatigue... fatigue is not an option in my command :shifty: .
2) I don't know if this is something within the game or not but when attempting to patrol AN 16 from whether it be the southeast, east or northeast approaches (and it don't matter if I'm on the surface or submerged) out of the blue I start getting reports of heavy flooding, periscopes destroyed (even on the surface), fwd battery destroyed, hydrophone destroyed, fwd torpedo tubes damaged... just to name a few. I find it hard to believe that there would be a mine field that far from Scapa Flow and there weren't any hostiles in the area. My question is... what's causing this!!!! :damn: :damn: :damn:
Please help, especially with #1. Number 2, I guess I just keep way away from AN 16... I know when I'm not wanted somewhere :smug:
Thank you

Just a little piece of advice, in case anyone can't open zip files.
Open the zip program first, then within 7Z or whatever, go to where the file is and open it.

Being a long time Improved Uboat mod fan, I really like the changes made to IUB 1.03 with one exception. I am seeing far fewer harbors with ships then I used to.
This is on a brand new install of SHIII, 1.04 patch, no other mods. I started a new career and am currently in May of 40' cruising the various ports on the West side of Britian only to find many of them empty.
Hanging around submerged for a few days don't seem to help (assuming ships move in an out of port).
Is the harbor traffic mod something I have to enable? From the readme (as I understood it) it's supposed to be enabled by default?
If anyone has any suggestion to crank up the harbor traffic for the British Isle ports back to at least IUB 1.02 level I would appreciate it.
Hey;
Could be the SCR layer has been replaced with a lighter version? Look in /Campaign for a folder called something like "heavy_campaign.scr" or similar and overwrite the normal one - sorry I can't be more precise, it's been a long time since I was involved.
GW seems to do everything IuB did anyway at this stage and is more up-to-date; if not the latest release then the up and coming one looks sweet. (Just set the 16km view option in GW ala IUB)

The correct IUB 1.03 files are there.
What keeps me on IUB is the forced inclusion of NYGM damage model for Grey Wolves. I admit to liking the Hollywood damage explosions in IUB... :)
I'll rummage around for an enemy harbor mod or something to spice IUB 1.03 up a bit.

ehya guys...sorry to bother but is there a way to download this IuB mod, latest version? because i get a message like the u-boot.realsimulation.xxx site is being hacked!
anyone can help?
Shanec - they're removing the NYGM damage in favour of the advanced hollywood damage next version I think.
