In what sense MFM don't work in your GWX?

You need to activate the mod with JSGME and add the ships in the cfg file as instructed.

I use MFM full with GWX and no problem.

What do your computer stats look like? My computer won't run MFM at all without crashing.

[navalpatato]

mine is cfg

[fitzcarraldo]

Enable MFM via JSGME.

After that, add these lines to englishnames.cfg in the Data\Sea folder:

(use a text editor, copy and paste):

It is for the full MFM version. Start the game and go to the Museum. If you see the new ships, all OK. If you have a CTD, the problem is your PC power for the mod.

Have you tried patching the SH3 executable with the 4gig patch?

MFM would not work on my machine either. Museum and career would cause CTD but as soon as i patched the executable it worked fine.

Just FYI the 4gig patch is not, as far as I know, a SH3 thing but rather something that was created for more general purposes.

[iambecomelife]

What exactly is the problem? Are you not seeing any of the new ships, or are you having lots of crashes?

As others have stated, the 4 gig patch is a very good idea if you want to run the MFM. I recommend that you install using JSGME, and not manually putting the folders in SH3's folders.

To be exact in understanding the need for the 4 gig patch; what is the computer spec for the 4 gig patch?

Never mind. Found the information I needed.
