H.sie's originalfile is 6722536 bytes large with MD5=8AB385A413BBB6039A5473D566AB223C
I took his original files and added only 1 file to indicate there is now an automated verision. Everything else is 1:1 identical!
You can EITHER do it all on your own and it has turned out that most users are not capable to do it right
OR you can simply use the automated Version included in
S3F (http://www.donitzeliteflotilla.com/forum/index.php?topic=64). It carries out automatically:
all append commands
all merge commands (merge.s is 347 lines)
all hardcode-patch offsets
supplemental files
in short: the complete H.sie-Patch!
A H.sie-patch correctly installed
the old way can easily be removed by just deactivating the mod-part that the old H.sie-patch adds to the MODS directory of your installation.
S3F constructs a mod in the MODS directory of your installation which is called
S3H-H.sie-Patch-V16B1 - start JSGME and move your mouse over it. It will then display:
___________________________________________
S3H - the automated H.sie-patch V16B1 (S3F)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
The major difference between the old and the new way is that the new way runs fully automatically and leaves no handwork to do for the user, i.e. S3F automatically activates that newly constructed MOD rescans and shows your version as tuned to "V1.6B1". All the file-work is carried out by S3F, too. Not to forget about that...
Another difference between the old and the new way is that the old way misinterpreted an sh3.exe that already HAD been patched to 4GT, so that the old H.sie-patch was not applicable in that situation. S3F however (and it uses H.sie's original detection-method) blanks that patch and therefore recognizes all SH3-versions correctly.
