At long last.
It is finished.
Today we release the GWX 2.1 update. It is the Grey Wolves Development Team's final organized work for the SH3 platform prior to full scale initialization of work on the GWX project for SH4. (Already well underway.)
However you may view the project or its members, what you see here is the culmination of a 2.5 year journey made by individuals determined to transform a good game... into an OUTSTANDING one.
Yes it is late, but it is here... and it costs you nothing. For the Grey Wolves Dev
Team and crew though, the price was often quite high. only those on the team will
fully understand what I speak of. Indeed, this team has weathered every obstacle thrown in its path, and has travelled many many miles beyond the expected destination.
It has been my honor to share the road with these fine people and to lead as project manager for so long. It is also my honor to say to this fine team... "WELL DONE GREY WOLVES!" You have my undying gratitude and I salute each of you.
Special and sincere thanks to dev team member Privateer for producing the COOLEST interactive installer ever seen at Subsim! Mate, your work absolutely ROCKS!
Due to real life matters preventing proper sequencing of events, we will begin the
release today and will communicate regarding changes in more detail in the days to
come.
Please note: You will need a clean installation of SH3 version 1.4b containing a
properly installed copy of GWX 2.0 BEFORE adding the GWX 2.1 update.
Since we cannot guarantee that previous GWX careers will remain stable, official
installation instructions are as follows:
(Failure to read the directions will cause you to snarl your installation.)
1) Uninstall SH3 USING THE GAME DISK if you have one. (You will need to create a fresh
installation of SH3 to assure stability.)
2) Verify that the "SH3" folder in "My Documents" has been DELETED. If it has not,
delete it manually.
3) Reboot your PC
4) Reinstall SH3 and patch to version 1.4b if your disk does not already contain the
version 1.4b patch.
5) Reboot your PC again
6) Install GWX 2.0 as described here:

Once you have a properly installed copy of SH3 1.4b with GWX 2.0 you are ready for the next simple sequence.

B) Download the "GWX21 Update.exe file to the folder you just created on your desktop.
C) Turn your speakers up!
D) Double click the GWX21.exe file and follow the directions that appear.
