First a slight clarification is needed: are you running FOTRS, Fall of the Rising Sun from the AOTD_MadMax team, or are you running Fall of the Rising Sun Ultimate (FotRSU) from the FotRSU Mod Team? The latter is based upon the former, but quite different. If using the FOTRS version, you MUST be careful of which version you use with your SH4 game. Version 2 of FOTRS is made for v1.4 of the game only, while v1.2 & v1.3 of the mod are for v1.5 (Gold) of the game. FotRSU is for v1.5 of the game ONLY.

In either case though, after you activate a mod, or a new mod collection, you generally MUST delete the current Save data folder, which defaults to "C:\Users \UserName \Documents \SH4", unless you use MultiSH4 to change the Save data folder name. But you should still empty the Save folder, which then allows the game to rebuild that data, which is then used to run the game. If you do not empty the folder, the game will not overwrite any already existing filenames, and you then end up with a mix of the stock game, and the modded game, which then does not run correctly, nor does it Save correctly.
