8. Go back into SH3FE to patch with hsie's fixes.
9. Stiebler's additional fixes are a manual patch job.

5. You should definitely be using the 4GB patch if using the german u-boats compilation.

No, no no...


Making a 4GB patch before or after using H.Sie Patch is completely unnecessary and only introduces unnecessary confusion because the 4GB patch is included in H.Sie patches. And what's more, if needed, you can turn it off and then on again (HsieOptionsSelector.exe).

In addition, you need more memory for the "GWX 3 Wilhemshafen, St Naz, Schluese and xtra ships V7" mod, which only consumes more than 1 GB of RAM on land information alone. For comparison, version 6 takes 11 times less memory (~150 MB).
