ISP 2.0 is READY!

TorpX · 02-24-15, 10:27 PM

I don't mean to belittle your choice; I was just curious, that's all. Most SH4 players consider the stock game to be flawed, to say the least.

I assumed that most people who aren't using mods either didn't have v1.5, or had an older machine that had trouble with memory intensive mods.

If you haven't tried them yet, I'd recommend these:
RFB_2.0 .........................(Real Fleet Boat)
RFB_2.0_Patch_23April2010
RSRDC_RFB_V575 ..........(Run Silent Run Deep Campaign)
RSRDC_V5xx_Patch1
Improved Ship Physics 2.15

I should add that these mods are not really high-difficulty mods. The game can still be played with the easy options, and the enemy forces are not cranked up to a high level. (Like with TMO, for instance.)

I've uploaded a patch for ISP 2.x.

This is to address the issue of overly severe weather with ISP.

Basically it involves using 2 scene.dat files so one can alternate between them and have a more sensible mix of weather. It is fully explained in the documentation.

It is not JSGME ready, so a little work is required.

The link is on the first page.

Oooooh man... First I missed the battle of the Coral sea and now this...

I'm still on patrol, not due to be back for 4 weeks

You can install and use the patch while at sea. Just make sure you disable your mods down to and including ISP. Then follow the directions, install, and re-enable your mods like before. The only file this patch changes is the scene.dat. Since it does not alter your boat, crew, or career, you can change this while at sea.

Of course, you can use the current ISP set-up. This patch is more or less a necessity for the S-class, but not so much for other boats.

I really enjoy ISP. It is a great mod for almost any mod list.

I haven't installed ISP yet... was waiting for the updated version but couldn't wait to start a career so here I am

I'll test then with and without the upgrade and see where my preference lies.
Ooh... and Thx for the Mod

Ive got RFB and I can't dive in 15 or 8 meter winds. Is that by design or a bug? I know it's choppy and maybe the dive planes can't get water, but sometimes my whole sub is under water because of waves. And I though the ballast would help me sink in rough weather?
