You need a 'clean' SH3 + 1.4b as a base installation.

You need the:

GWX.exe Installer
GWX-1.bin
GWX-2.bin
GWX-3.bin
GWX-4.bin
GWX-5.bin

Put the above 6 files in a folder together and run the installer.

Then d/l the GWX 1.02 Patch and run it.

Have yoy patched SH3 to 1.4 before installing GWX?

Yes m8 i did. 1.4b to be exact. Any more ideas?

Follow these steps to the letter and see if it works.

The 10 comandements!

1-Before instaling what ever, be sure to copy your SHIII career folder located on
Your Documents Directory! To back up this it's easelly done if you just drag the
all folder to the Desktop, and leave it there, delete The Carreer folder on your
Documents directory...

2-Have a clean install of SHIII game Patched to 1.4b... This means, uninstall
everything you have installed ,SHIII game, and install it again followed by
the respective Patchs untill the 1.4b patch...

3-Install GWX Expansion Mod, And if you whant run the game ons just to make
Sure everything is at its respective place and running properly, when you run
the game, a new carreer folder will be created on your Documents directory,
don't touch it and leave it there...

4-Install now the GWX 1.02 Patch,after the install you will see the the GWX
1.02 Instaler have created a folder inside SHIII directory called Mods , move
it into your descktop also and leave it there. Do the run gamer again for
testing purposes just to check that the GWX is running nice and smouth...

5-Install now the JSGME and after hit the JSGME icon inside the SHIII game folder
to run it one time so that this way it will creat a new empty Mods Folder on
The same SHIII Game folder...

6-Now copy whats inside The Mods folder saved at the descktop to the recentky
created Empty Mods folder inside the SHIII Game directory, and you can also
add all the mods you whant in there...

7-Enable all the Mods you whant with the JSGME, and run the game again to check
if everything its were its suposed to be...

8-NowGo to your SHIII Carreer in your Documents Directory and delete all folder,
and finaly drag the SHIII Carreer (that you've saved on your descktop before)
To the Ducuments folder...

9-Run the game and start playing your carreer were you left it.(Docked at Port).

10-If everything of the above steps fail, go on your knees, pray for a cople of
minutes, concentrate and reinstate you mental helth, and go back on the
first step of this Guide....

Your original GWX can be running perfectly and you can still get that error message. It means some file has been changed in your original GWX install. Did you ever modify a .cfg file by hand or add a mod without using JSGME (ANY little change can do it).
See JScones description of the installer error messages here:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...5&postcount=60

Can you actually run GWX? (The original version I mean)

Bump ;)

Why dont you make a mod that makes it to your taste?;)
Or you could try out some of the sound mod packages that have been made by people in the commuinty.

1. Because I tried changing the font color, and it didn't work for me?

2. All of the other sounds are fine by me. I just put it out there as a suggestion for the GWX team to add to the next update.

So, back to the question at hand: what do I need to edit to get rid of that awful orange text in the U-boat Aces and Career History screens?

Carrying Over a Campaign to a new GWX Installation
 

I’m unable to patch to version 1.02 because I manually edited some of the files in my existing GWX installation. I kept my old GWX version 1.0 installation intact in a directory called GWX but copied all the files from a clean install of SH3 1.4b to a new directory that I named GWX2. I then successfully patched the GWX2 installation to GWX version 1.02. The program runs fine but now I’d like to try and resume my old campaign under version 1.02 and I’m having trouble doing so. In case it matters, I’m also running SH3 Commander 2.7.

I know that SH3 keeps the main campaign files in a directory under My Documents and those files are still intact and somehow linked to my original GWX installation. I tried re-naming my new GWX2 installation directory to GWX but when I run SH3 Commander, with or without the new config files for version 1.02, the program doesn’t recognize my saved campaign. If I load SH3 without going through SH3 Commander, I get the same result. If I run SH3 in my old GWX installation, however, SH3 still recognizes my campaign files even though I changed the name of the original GWX directory.

Does anyone know if it’s possible to link old campaign files to a new GWX installation?

Ummmm nothing mate
Not touched it

I asked the same thing some 20 pages before this and did not get an answer yet.

Again where can I change the unreadable (for me) orange font?

Thanks and keep up the good work
