My alternative is to use v6 and add the LSH3 bridges that BigBoyWooly added in just for me. I would prefer the changes made to Kiel that come with v7, but I can live with the other option.

Steve, do you have some version of 4GB patch installed? You might need it for the fancy graphics of Wilhelms....

I have successfully run GWX with that mod on my machine, and it has a lower performance GPU than yours, so I'm pretty sure your hardware can handle it. I don't have GWX3 installed any more, so I can't quickly do any testing. But hopefully someone else can point you in the right direction.

If I'm not mistaken ( tho I usually am ), I think Steve has the 4bg installed via SH3 Front End.

I'm only just reinstalling an OS on a new SSD else I'd check, but if it helps I do have v.7 way up near the top of my mod list. I f you can wait Steve I hope to have this bugger at least up by tomorrow, twaked updated and SH3 up and running. I can post my JSGME list then.

Best regards.

Not at the moment.

I did, but it has to be activated after the h.sie patch, and I deactivated that because somebody told me activate it last.

But seriously, I was wondering if it might be that. I'll have to turn it back on to test the Schleuse v7 that way.

Since I wanted to have it up and running by New Years, and that obviously is not going to happen, I suppose one more day won't hurt. It's going to take a lot longer than that to get everything else installed anyway.

I adhere to the "I'll get there when I get there" philosophy anyway.

Nope. Made sure the 4-Gig patch was activated and reloaded Schleuse v7. Still crashed. I'll look into it more later. Today I have a model to finish.

On a whim I tried again, this time with Game Booster turned on. It loaded and seems to run just fine. I'm still a little worried though. Will it run in that configuration with the Merchant Fleet Mod activated? I guess only time will tell.

I'm impressed that you can resist the temptation to just load everything up and try it Right Now.

I feel the need to try to make everything work together. I already know from experience that if it doesn't I've accomplished nothing. Meanwhile I like to drive around the harbors looking at the sights, and if I need to sink something there's always a single mission waiting for me.
