Default Simple fix for IUB103 Install Problems via JSGME

JSGME install problems seem to stem from the directory structure of the IUB103 zip file download.

To fix:

1. Extract as usual to JSGME/MODS folder

2. MOVE the "Improved U-Boatv103" folder found under the "IuBv103" directory to the JSGME/MODS folder

3. You can then delete the empty "IUBV103" folder.

4. Now, open JSGME and install "Improved U-Boatv103".

5. Start as usual via SH3 Cmdr.


Thanks to everyone who contributed to this mod.

p.s -- if anyone can help me with black sky issues then please do. ATI 9800 Pro.

Thanks

Black sky issue is related to SH3 Commander. Rollback SH3, uninstall IuB 1.03, and reinstall. Then start the game via Commander again.

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.
I however Appreciate the tip to install IuB.

In fact I am looking for a new way to establish my hiearchical folders to be easy to use by new users. I think I have failed. If someone can make any suggestion on how the folders are packed I'm all ears.

One change to your instructions Manny, the first step must ALWAYS BE TO ROLLBACK SH3CMDR!!! The rest of the steps are fine.

Otherwise...black sky...

JonZ: You need to zip the folders up at the "Improved U-Boatv103" folder level, not the level below it.
