Warace Campaign 4.1 / GWX 3.0 compatibility issues

[Anton88]

I hope this is not a dumb thread, but I tried to copy the Warace campaign 4.1 over GWX 3.0 Gold, to take advantage of both mods. Does not work.. game crashes.

I like GWX alot, Warace has some extra stuff.. flag pennants, twisty periscopes and deck guns, modified harbors, .. lots and lots of stuff I wanted in addition to the standard GWX.
I used Jsgme, for easy install

What files make the game crash? What should I remove and delete to make the game work properly?

Not possible to combine both... 2 supermods which will only work as stanalone.

Make 2 SH3 installs

A lot of files. Too many to be sorted out by just adding/removing them. First, both supermods use their own ships and planes in campaign files. Some of them are the same, but many are different. Then, it's how these vehicles are defined in the rosters of various countries. Next come the submarines and their equipment. There are differences in terms of flotillas - what flotilla gets what submarine with what upgrade at what moment - plus in many other aspects related to uboats. Then come the way textures are defined in ship models. And so on and so forth...
My advice is make a double install; one with GWX, the other with WAC, and play both supermods as they were released. Each has its own flavor and both are masterpieces.

so how do we make a double install of SH3 on our system, and wouldnt the 1.4 patch think SH3 has already been patched when we install it again?

You need multi SH3. It's a cunning utility that allows you to have multiple installs and an even better ReadMe that talks you through how to make it work.

Give me a mo and I'll chase down a link...
