Default 4Gb patch needed

I don't see a 4Gb patch.


The ancient 32 bit SH3 code cannot address enough memory if you add mods. What's worse the memory consumption creeps up during a career and you can suddenly end up with an unplayable game in mid career. The best indication is if the training missions work fine but the game crashes after a while during a real game.



You must apply either the 4Gb patch, or better, the H.Sie or Stiebler patches. These involve running scripts to mod your sh3.exe file and are truly horrible to install, To see if you have done it right look at the version number in the bottom right of the first screen after loading. My Stiebler patched code says "v 1.6B1"


it's a lot easier to use the OneAlex supermod which includes sh3.exe already patched up as well as a very good selection of mods.
