SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Realism- and gameplay-related hardcode fixes for SH3.EXE

Walruss · 12-19-15, 01:00 AM

Just downloaded this to start a new career.

I've turned off my anti virus, backed up the sh3 exe, moved the sh3.exe and the full patch kit into a working dir on my desktop, go to run the batch file and... "cannot find compatible version of sh3.exe"

-the game IS 1.4b
-AVG is OFF and all avg processes disabled
-I have full admin rights to the folder
-I have tried running batch file "as administrator" as well as without.

Win 7 64bit os.

EDIT: Can this patch be applied to a gwx-installed game? I noticedd I also had a "sh3.exe.BACKUP" in the game directory. Moving that one to the patch working directory and removing the .BACKUP allowed for a successful patch.
