Installation sh3 directory recommended by UBI is unfavorable for GWX because newer versions of Windows trying to prohibit full file access by programs other than the installers assigned to these programs. JSGME is not a registered installer SH3, so the game files can be treated as read-only files. In this case, modding the game can be impossible.

I prepared a special package:
GWX Hardcode Fixes V16B1 for dummies
http://www.mediafire.com/?babdcso3pylrlcw
https://rapidshare.com/files/3968076...ummies_1.01.7z

This small pack contains:
1. H.Sie V16B1-Patch-Kit prepared for GWX 3.0
2. H.Sie More wounded & less dead crew v2 - for V16B1
3. JSGME v.2.6.0.157 upgrade

Installation is simple.
1. The newer version of JSGME makes it possible to save the configuration before you disable all mods and restore it after installation (menu commands).
2. Disable all mods, then unzip the package to the directory SH3 (with replacement files) and run the installer file SetupHF.bat in that directory.
3. Restore JSGME mods configuration and enable "GWX HardcodeFixes" and "GWX HardcodeFixes - O2-Gauges" options.
Thats all.

@H.Sie I hope not to offend by easier installation of your work for GWX users. This setup can be easily adapted also to other supermods, and even should be possible to adapt it to the system for all existing supermods.

Some features:
- Installer patch currently used version of SH3.EXE (by setupHF.bat via Patch_SH3.bat)
- It is not possible to run SH3.EXE with enabled "GWX HardcodeFixes" before patch
- The "GWX HardcodeFixes" has context-sentisive label (in JSGME) indicating the current status of the patch.
