SH3 Failure!

GJO · 06-22-17, 04:47 PM

I have been playing SH3 with GWX for several years - suddenly the game has stopped working. When I attempt to load the game, the opening videos work fine then when the progress bar comes up, it gets half way along and then CTD. It was loading fine last night and as far as I know, I haven't changed anything.

I have a clone of my hard drive (made a month ago) so I tried loading the game from that but the same thing happens.

I have tried re-installing the game (I have a fully paid for, starforce free, downloaded version from Ubisoft) and playing the 'vanilla' version with no mods and the same thing happens.

I am running Windows 10 home edition - the game has ben running fine until tonight. I do not have a permanent Internet connection - I usually run the game with the Internet disconnected but I did catch a recent Windows update.

Any advice?
