It's a very good new.

But I've a question. Are the existing careers compatibles ? Or has this mod too heavy modifications ?

I assume it was updated to at least include RUb 1.45.

Emm, no. RuB 1.45 was released more or less as I was uploading 102 to terrapin. It does contain some stuff in RuB 1.45 (and RuB 145 contains some stuff from IuB 101, etc etc)

This release does not mean you have to restart a career and it shouldn't even affect your ingame saves. If I had waited till RuB 1.45 was coming out it would have meant people would have had to go back into port as RuB changes the Land and Campaign layers. Luckily though the RuB 1.45 changes are fairly minor. But they'll be included in the next version for sure.

Anyway, here's the changelog:
• Added Fubar's Typ IIA/D skins.
• Added flakwalkers VIIC cables fix.
• Added sergbuto's fixed reflections/wakes for all periscopes and snorkels.
• Added seeadlers fix for the “warping clouds” SH3 bug.
• Added Anon's (?) SH3 Convoy Map.
• Added Evil Jester 76's pack of 188 historical sub emblems.
• Added new AA searchlight.
• Added KGV long range gunner fix by Cdr Gibs
• New Units: Cdr Gibs' Tirpitz, Type 36A Destroyer, and Vorpostenboot.
• Replaced minefield maps with Schakals versions.
• Crew no longer look as if they wear fake suntan.
• Fixed “Pascals Dials” option not working.
• Fixed “Heavy Harbour Traffic” option not working.
• Fixed new command icons not working.
• Fixed some texture glitches with AI Uboats.
• Updated textual descriptions for units in the Museum.

For people who don't want to download 225mb, there should be a patch up on terrapins folder soon. (about 30mb)

Query...I have IUB 1.01, Sub Commander 2.3 (plus a few other eye candy mods). What I am most happy with is the sightings icons on the NAV chart (descriptions, course tails, etc) and the fact they appear sometimes beyond visual range. What I would like to have also is the Spy Sat view for convoys...but I understand that is incompatible with Improved Convoys which is part of both IUB and RUB. Therefore, IF! I install IUB 1.02 (which I assume contains RUB 1.45) will I still have all the NAV chart goodies (and improved visibility, internal sounds, grammophone goodies, etc)...or will I lose somethings?
Seems like every broad mod out there (and I am my no means gripping) takes a little something of what I like...while giving me lots of things I never knew I could have.
God bless the modders time, dedication and expertise.

Hey frogdog;

IuB 102 includes RuB 1.44, and some parts of RuB 1.45, but .. I think you should be able to install IuB 102 fairly safely.

I perhaps was not crystal clear. If I already have IUB 1.1 and SHIII Commander...what will I gain and/or lose if I upgrade to 1.2? I guess a collateral question (which is hinted at but not directly covered as I read the ReadMe) is: If I elect to upgrade can I do so over current set-up without disaster or must I go back to the clean install?

IuB 1.02 is designed so you can upgrade from ver 1.01 without having to any clean reinstalls, restart careers, etc.

Default IuB 1.02

Great Work!!
Technical note: I had to replace the movie folder with the SHIII movie file to get IuB to load.
