Large save files when only RFB 1.5 is installed
Once you go RFB (and RSRD) you can't go back, can you. Thanks to the modders who have done such wonderful work.
I'm having a problem with big save files that I've confirmed happen when RFB is the only mod present. Here's what I did:
1. Fresh install SH4 1.5
2. Use JSGME to install RFB_v1.51_62308
3. Erase SH4 in my "Documents" folder if exists
4. Start a career, 1941, Pearl Harbor, Gar
5. Start a patrol, plot course to within docking distance of Midway, and travel there at 2048x
6. Save the game
7. Plot course to the neighborhood of Iwo Jima and travel there at 8192x
8. Save the game
Without the mod, the first save was ~300KB, the second about the same. With the mod, the first save was 100MB, the second was ~550MB. The file that takes up all the space is "SaveFile.rep."
If I've missed a previous answer to this, I apologize. I thought I'd ask before taking any steps that might end up breaking parts of the mod.
