used in any way for profit. Activation of MBFL v1.0 in your game will be taken as
indicitive that you have fully read this. User assumes all risks to equipment and
Software. Writer assumes no liability for same. Every effort has been made to
ensure that this mod is harmless to your game and system and virus free at
the time of release. MBFL v1.0 is freeware and as such the writer can not assume

ensuring file isnt corrupt at the point of downloading it to there system from any
other system.
Warning : This mod will prevent you making
any enemy contacts in, or even launch your
campaign game While it is still active in
JSGME!.
MBFL mod was designed specifically for helping people who build missions and have
to frequently leave the game and jump back in again and again to test mission"feel, timing,
effects etc."MBFL will likely help people who, want to change things and test them while
moddingSHIII as well.
How it Works.
The amount of time when you are loading SHIII (the game itself) will not be effected or
reduced in any way.
The amount of time it takes to load your mission up after your in the game will be
significantly reduced.
here's how. when you initiate MBFL in JSGME what it does is it goes into the Campaign layers
file and removes all the Units in the entire war from them. these layers are layed down by SHIII
prior to your mission going into the game when you play a single mission. this is why you
always run into units you never programed into yourmission. for the serious mission building
types if you play with MBFL installed then you wont have any units that you didnt put in yourself.
When you deactivate it in JSGME it puts all The layers back in the campaign files and off you go
back to play your current campaign game. It takes seconds to do this in the mod enabler and
reduces by minutes for some, the amount of time it takes to load a mission after your in the SHIII
in game Single Missions Menu.
MBFL will work with and is likely harmless to most SH3 Versions and isGWX (tested).
MBFL will not harm your campaign game or saves or in any way effect your game after it
is disabled.
Your mission built using MBFL will work in any version of SHIII that matches the one you built
the mission in. ( user must have same ships etc loaded in thier game as author puts in the mission )
For those who find themselves jumping into and out of SHIII to fix and change things this is for you.
it will give you something of value time, time to either spend with your family or maybe polish the
cannonball in the usual number of hours but with an extra one or two buffings.
MBFL will not directly enhance your fun but it may reduce your aggravation enjoy.

Nice M, just noticed this little nugget

Thanks

as my first mod I think that reducing the amount of loading time to
test things and play non randomized missions was a good priority.

its probably the simplest mod in the history of sh3 though.

I remember you talking about this mod, can't believe I did not see the thread.
Again, well done

I voted yes, most helpful when someone wants to tinker with tweaking settings on a trial-and-error basis. Thanks a lot!

[Mush Martin]

Easy to create such a mod. I've created it for myself one year ago, for the same purpose.
