Hi people,

I am pretty new to this whole subsim thing, so if i sound like an idiot do forgive me. I have been playing sh3 for a while and recently decided to install gwx 3.0 the mod is brilliant but I have one small problem. I have completely random crashes, sometimes when I'm loading in, when i speed up time compression, Or just when i turn on the game and load in, it drops to like 3 fps and i am forced to ctrl+alt+delete out of there.

Some help would be appreciated as i am a bit stuck here.

2 questions:

When you installed GWX, did you get an error message or did the install go silky smooth?

Any other mods and/or are you using SH3Commander?

Hi thanks for the response on such short notice,
I installed gwx 3 onto my computer and the default location was false, (because i bought the game on steam) it was trying to find the game in my Ubisoft folder. I promptly told it to install on my steam folder and after that the download was smooth.

Also i am using no other mods. a completely clean install.
