It would, but SH3Cmdr would simply overwrite RUb's model again next time you ran it, assuming that you still had a fatigue model selected as your preference.

In a nutshell, the last thing SH3Cmdr does before loading SH3 is write the requested options to the game files, backing up and overriding whatever settings may already exist. So if you select it in SH3Cmdr, you will get it in SH3, everytime.

A point though, before installing RUb, perform a rollback in SH3Cmdr in order to avoid any potential conflicts. Not saying there will be any, but it's good practice.

Going to see if i can reload saved mission with out SH3 Cmd ver 2?
I would though it would have said this when I try to start patrol 8
in port?
Due to the potential for in-game crashes, SH3Cmdr does *not* recognise in-progress patrols, it stops at the last time the user was in base. So, reminder to all: If you run SH3Cmdr whilst you are mid-patrol, you need to switch off the realistic career length option. It is not overly realistic to be retired mid-patrol, unless you want to introduce the possibility of mutiny.

However, if you do forget, you can always use the "return from retirement" option to bring the career back.

Essentially, if you:
-are mid-patrol and
-started the current patrol via SH3Cmdr and
-have not loaded any other missions or careers with SH3Cmdr between starting the patrol and now

you can bypass SH3Cmdr and load SH3 direct. In these circumstances, SH3Cmdr will only be copying across the same files as it already had done when you started the patrol (apart from any random folder files, such as the MVP, which may differ. If you want more variety with your skins, then you can use SH3Cmdr mid-patrol, but turn the bl*&dy realistic career length option off! LOL).

If this last part does not make sense to anyone, let me know.
