The last RFB patch was compatible - to my knowledge nothing new that is included in the latest patch breaks this compatibility.

The beta version of this patch I was testing was compatible.

Thanks for the patch Luke. I must confess I like RFB more and more. I am coming from a long trek with TMO an have decided to try RFB. So far the only thing I miss in RFB from TMO is the GUI. I have two questions for you and the others that are part of this amazing RFB team
1. Does the latest patch you released contains "Visual Sensor Rework 1.0"?
2. What other mods can I use with RFB 2.0? Any sound mods that would be compatible? A asked this questions a while back but got no answers. I hope I am not impolite by being repetitive. My current enabled mod are in this order:
RFB 2.0
RFB 2.0 patch 6Mar2010
RSRD RFB V575
RSRD V5xx Patch1
Hydrophone lines extended ( I am thinking on removing it for more realism)
Nav map make over ( i really like it)
Torpedo speed setting text
Sub Watch Sensors + Scene 1.0
Max Optics IV for RFB 2.0

Many thanks!

Hehe, I too would like to see GUI upgrade for RFB. Right now I am using reverse-engineered GUI from TMO, fully compatible with RFB. If you're interested send me a PM.

1. It does, just hop over to the previous page where Luke posted a readme with latest changes.
2. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use any sound mods with RFB. Just be careful that you don't overwrite Sh.sdl located in the Data/Sound.

EDIT: The 'Torpedo speed setting text' has also been included in the latest patch.

Glad you guys are liking the new patch. More work will continue to go into RFB. I'm going to work now on getting the Narwhal up to spec for the mod.

How will RFB work, now that it is patched, with RSRD? Shall we wait for a new version of RSRD?

Should work ok, the only issue I know of is problems with the crew of the Narwhal class SS, which I may fix in the future when I have time

Thanks for the all the work you guys have been putting into this mod. I really enjoy all the added realism, environment, ship sinking physics, crew management etc., but IMO the only thing that "breaks" the game immersion is the crew speech.

It seems that the speech set #1 is the only one being used with RFB. There's no voice variety. Most of the time the DO, OOD and helmsman use the same voice. Not to mention the infamous repetitions(rudder/rudder, yes sir's) Are there plans to fix these issues in a future patch? Other than that the mod works great!

BTW, on the readme file it says that the latest patch "Reverted binocular view to stock" but I still have the same one with the reticle.

It should say stock field of view.

need some help here...

Have RFB 2.0 installed plus RSRD 575, no RFB patch, which way to go? Should I install the patch "6Mar 2010 RFB" prior to installing the latest? And should I install RSRD patch for 5xx?

ps.: I have made some confusing remarks about integrating the GFO map into RFB...Looks like I had a bad RSRD RFB download (don't ask me how, it just happened) that only included about 1/4 of all RSRD data...so I didn't have the RSRD missions or the RSRD map and I confused it with the GFO map, I think.

RFB rocks, keep up the good work!

AFAIK, you should install in this order:

RFB 2.0
RFB Patch 23 Apr http://www.filefront.com/16224499/RF...23April2010.7z
RSRD 575
RSRD patch

You have RFB and TMO installed? Not good, they are not compatable since the do the same thing.
