Hi blackswan40,

BIG thanks for your multiple replies to this post, your continued words of encouragement and help in trying to get Ahnenerbe's WideGui 1920 x 1080 Final mod to work for me with GWX3 -- very much appreciated! Per your request, my current, activated mods list:

GWX - 16km Atmosphere
Hull damage made by torpedo impact mod v1.0
LifeBoats&Debris_v4
Improved Anti Aircraft Capability Plus
No continuous 'Ship spotted' V1.2 for GWX3
Waterstream+Exhaust Combi - Single Exhaust for TypeII
Additional Depth Charges Mod for GWX3 (v1.0)
GWX - Enhanced Damage Effects
GWX - No Medals on Crew
Thomsens Ships V3.1
Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920 x 1080 Final


Also worth mentioning -- I have mirrored your mods list order below and have tried to run the game as Admin in Compatibility modes for XP (service packs 2 & 3), Vista, and Vista (service packs 1 & 2) to no avail.

Hi Easy_Eight65 try just having Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920 x 1080 Final
active and see if it runs if so then add one mod at a time and run a test.
Its very strange that I ran it and with those four mods and all went well.
Im running windows 10 once you get a base platform to work from for SH3
that's a start but you may have to compromise.
Mod A may not like mod b but will work with mod c d e f g ect ill get these mods
tomorrow and have a play and I will report my findings.

watch this space for further updates

I actually tried running just the Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920 x 1080 Final mod last night -- no dice. But yes, I'll keep watching this post. Btw, please let me know which compatibility mode you're running and if as Admin or not -- danke.

Hi Easy_Eight65 had a few crashes to desktop but I have finally got it working
deleted my SH3 install from my documents and Commander mod.
Then made a Games Folder in drive C:/installed SH3 in that folder then installed the Commander Mod to same games Folder.
Installed GWX3 and the 4gig Patch then run GWX3 all worked next step then installed all those mods same as you only one different was the diesel smoke
I put the type VIIC one in the mods folder and active them then fired SH3 GWX3 up all went well.
Next I copied and pasted the Uboat Folder that is in the SH3 Commander Folder that comes with Ahnenerbe's wide Screen mod to the Uboat folder in the Commander Mod so it overwrites the uboat folder that came with the commander mod install when I didn't use that Ahnenerbe's Uboat Folder SH3/GWX crashed to desktop everytime but this time it worked this could be your problem.
I have Window 10 home I didn't need to run SH3 as administrator or in compatibility mode for win XP 7 or 8.1.

Mod List



hope you have same success I did

I think I may have to do something similar to what you have done blackswan as I have a few ctd’s when trying to load saves, after a few attempts it usually loads but it is annoying
