Hey guys!
Its been a long time since i've been on here and was wondering on the progress of 2017 version? When I was on last I saw some talk about it not being finished or scraping it all together anyone have any word on this? Thanks |
Cannot install
Herr Kaleuns,
After spending 2 frustrating evenings trying to get this MegaMod to install, I decided to reach out for some help. My system is running Windows 10 Professional 64 bit. Meets all the requirements for the game and then some. I was playing SHIII with the GWX Gold Megamod (modded) a few years ago but ended up moving on to some other simming. After reading about LSH 2015 I decided it was time to revisit this sim that I had enjoyed so much in the past. I went through the tutorials THEBERBSTER has put together (Thank you for your effort - much appreciated!) in order to prep my computer for the sim and also how to install the mod properly. I followed all steps exactly. I downloaded the multi-part files installation method using the download manager that was recommended in the tutorials. I checked to make sure the size of the files were correct after downloading. When I run the multi-part installer exe file (as administrator) I get to the opening screen where I select my language, after selection of the language, it goes to the page where it outlines the system requirements (mine are sufficient), then when I click OK, I get the following message: "Unable to locate packed archive". I am installing the original game from a non-StarForce Dvd that also has the 1.4b patch. When installing from the Dvd the only thing I did not allow to be installed was the "Game Shadow" feature. Just seemed to be silly to me to allow that feature to be installed on a sim/game that in its original form is pretty long in the tooth, so to speak. I have the location that I re-installed SHIII to and the folders that I downloaded the multi-part files to on the same drive, in this case D. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Regards, Scott |

Have you put all 9 files into the same folder in D: ? |
Hi scott
It is important that all the files are in a new folder before starting the LSH3-2015 installation. In the tutorial it is called LSH3Split. It is also important to uninstall your previous SH3 installation and then use a registry cleaner before re-booting and re-installing. It is a good idea to make at least 1 game copy from the installation so you do not need to use the dvd again. You can run 1 other SH3 game without using multi SH3 as LSH3 does not use the SH3 saved games folder. Peter https://s11.postimg.org/heuumhk0z/ls...oad_banner.gif |
Hauangua and the Theberbster, thank you for your replies.
Everything you mentioned in your replies to my problem, had been done before I posted about it. Scott |

you no solved again? |
No, haven't tried again - really no point in it as I've installed/uninstalled at least a dozen times trying to get things to work.
Wish I hadn't completely deleted my GWX Gold (modded) install too. Probably just going to give up - invested way too much time installing/trouble shooting the past two nights. I really do appreciate you and Theberbster trying to assist me! Regards, Scott |

and your Jsgme folder?...PS... I no remember.. you use Multish3..right?..wait before uninstall!!!! |
I uninstalled JSGME when I uninstalled SHIII in preparation of installing LSH
http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o...psu1ecee6g.jpg I didn't reinstall JSGME after deleting everything since it comes bundles with LSH. Thanks again, Scott |

This is a brand new install of SHIII from the original disc (non-starforce).
