either way it looks AWESOME! I was excited to get started on a career, but then I tried the Type 7 B version.. Sure enough, CTD

so.. I will wait until one of you smarties lets me know where Im going wrong.


also, in the scopes, I notice the hand from the stopwatch is showing, lol

you guys remember that 4gb patch thing?? thats not needed now is it? because i didn't do it

First, you don't need MEP1 and MEP2. You need MEP4.2, then MEP4.2 Visual Sensors, then MEP4.2 to 4.3. Get rid of the old stuff.

Second you DO need the 4GB Fix. Absolutely. Win8 knows all about 4GB address space. But ole SH3 doesn't. The 4GB Fix is how you extend SH3's address space to use a full 4GB (assuming you have 4GB). Without it, memory-heavy mods like FM NewInteriors will choke your machine. Can even cause CTDs on loading.

If I may suggest this mod order:

NYGM Tonnage War V2.5 – Stand Alone Version
NYGM3_New
NYGM3_6D
NYGM HiRes Submarines
IABLShipsforNYGM_New
FM_NewInterior v2.1D
M.E.P v4.2
M.E.P v4.2 - VisualSensors for NYGM 3.6b
M.E.P v4.2 to v4.3
Hitman_GUI_NYGM3_1.1
Van1920x1080 v1.1
Supplement to V16B1 - NYGM
Stiebler4B_Addon_for_V16B1 - NYGM
O2-Gauges v2

And yes, there is a problem with the stopwatch in vanjast's mod. IIRC the other stopwatches are visually OK, but don't work. AFAIK, that's the only error in his mod. It's an easy fix. I'll get it to you tomorrow.

No, there is a version of the 4GB Fix in h.sie. You activate it with the Option Selector, at the top of the h.sie page. It goes into your patched sh3.exe. It's only needed at runtime.

ok well I took out the 1 and 2 versions of the manos mod.

and now its like this




The only thing.. how do I know its activated properly? before I had the big splash screen, now I see nothing but the stock NYGM splash screen start.

anything specific to look for ?

oh and it works now.. the interior works for the type 7 b and c models with no issues

[fastfed]

wait so you want me to patch the 4gb patch now?

using this

then do the v16b1 stuff?

I thought I was supposed to have a stock executable or something.

Move Hitman's GUI. The startup screen is stock NYGM stretched over 1920x1080. (vanjast didn't redo everything.) The 3D screens should all be full 1920x1080 and no distortion.

It's built into the h.sie patches. All you need to do is activate it with the Option Selector. You don't need the standalone 4GB fix.

Move Hitman's GUI.

TO WHERE?

THANKS

[fastfed]

never mind I see your recommendation for which order to install the mods, thanks so much for this, I'm SO CLOSE!
let me start from the get go and where im at.

I installed 1.4b SH3, loaded the game made sure it was good

then I installed Generic mod enabler,
and I start to add the mods. Normally I install the 4gb patch, but you're saying the vB161 patch will have that 4gb patch already in it right? if so Im waiting till i get to that part, Im not even there yet.

So with your recommendation

NYGM Tonnage War V2.5 – Stand Alone Version
NYGM3_New
NYGM3_6D
NYGM HiRes Submarines
IABLShipsforNYGM_New
FM_NewInterior v2.1D
M.E.P v4.2
M.E.P v4.2 - VisualSensors for NYGM 3.6b
M.E.P v4.2 to v4.3
Hitman_GUI_NYGM3_1.1
Van1920x1080 v1.1
Supplement to V16B1 - NYGM
Stiebler4B_Addon_for_V16B1 - NYGM
O2-Gauges v2

you have hitman GUI 1.1,
I don't have 1.1 just 1.0 , where is 1.1?

also the 1920x1080, I don't have a 1.1 , just the regular version??

I was planning on installing everything listed here through the generic mod enabler, THEN! do the vB161 patch and enable the 4gb memory patch last.

Am I on the right track?

thanks
