Installed GWX, looks like its running.


** SH3 runs fine, making sure to do the first mission as default, otherwise the game will crash. Other than that working, thank you.


You may need to do this as well https://steamcommunity.com/app/15210...3594739326655/
I run GWX on my Win10 machine in Win XP Compatibility mode and it runs just fine. Instead of the 4Gb patch, I use the Large Address Aware (LAA) utility. Does the same thing as the 4Gb patch, but with no confusion over versions, etc. I believe you can find LAA in the Subsim Download section. Good luck and good hunting!
