Hi Scott
Looks like the stock game without the 2 LSH3 mods enabled?
The blank part of the picture looks like a classic Direct X problem.
I take it your GPU settings are correct as per tutorial.
It could be a corruption from your game installation.
All SH games have to use the Direct X that comes with the game.
DirectX 9.0C

My advice would be to make a clean installation of SH5 making sure that you do a complete uninstall from the Control Panel's Program and Features.
Delete your SH3 game folder that contains JSGME.
Example C:\Games\SilentHunter3
Delete the SilentHunter3 folder leaving you with the Games folder.
Check that the V15 games folder in C:\Documents has also been uninstalled.
Run Ccleaner and reboot your system.

Install your game in lets say C:\Games\SilentHunter3 again.
Make a copy or more of SilentHunter3 giving each copy a new name and paste it or them to a safe place..
In C:\Games\SilentHunter3 go to the SH3.exe and Run administrator and if Windows 10 change to Windows 7.
Start the new stock game from the SH3.exe and go to the Naval Academy.
Choose the Navigation Tutorial.
If all is well here then you know that your SH3 installation is okay and you now have a backup copy or copies of it.
Entering the Naval Academy will create a SH3 saved games folder in your documents that you can delete.

Go to your copy and rename it to SilentHunter3.
Copy and paste it in the Games folder so it overwrites the existing Silent Hunter3 stock game that you have just used.
Install LSH3-2015 as per instructions and you should be ok.
