Hey, all. Myself and a friend of mine have just returned to duty after a few years off, and I'm getting all the old mods back up and running.

My question today is: how well does GWX work with Just Follow Orders? Also, does anyone have any recommendations for more immersion/realistic orders-oriented mods?

Thanks!

While a slow systematic process will work, you might consider this instead:

If you have, say 20 mods, and one is causing a problem, enable #1-#10, leaving #11-#20 disabled. If things work, you know the problem is in #11-#20, if they don't, the problem is in #1-#10. As you continue, keep cutting the mod section under investigation by 1/2. This should speed up the process.

I didn't know it was a standard technique, but makes sense that it is.

I was working on finding out what part of my mod was causing CTD's, and going through everything, one file at a time, was a non-starter.

Default Loading Crashes!

Returning for a new tour of duty with SH3 and of course my previous tour stats and files were on a dead HD scraped years ago, so back to starting from scratch. Have the GWX.exe files, 1.4 patch file, new clean game, win 7, so added files as directed early in this thread. Game runs fine. GWX won't load at all. About 90% of GWX loads then a APP crash warning. All files being installed scanned clean and they matchup with files required. Listing the crash report below for any computer savvy Captain to decipher if it makes sense. Appreciate any suggestions or alternatives as my crew is looking at me like.. "and your the new Captain!".

Is there a common reason for SHIII+GWG crashing to desktop in Windows 10 with no reason given? I can play single missions, but half way through my second mission during the career it crashed, and now when I start a career mission it crashes immediately.

Windows 10
Intel duo 3ghz
6GB Ram
Radeon 7770HD 2GB
Plenty of HD space
Steam version of SHIII + GWG (nothing else)

Default Going Down!

Looks like I have no other alternative than to go down with the boat. Several day's attempts to get her afloat with the GWX Mod, several different downloads of game, patch, MOD, several reads and rereads of material. Many, many, start anew attempts. Filled the Recycle Bin enough so that the crew down there is threatening a strike. My apology's to the Dev's who worked so hard developing such a fine mod. My memory's of past years using GWX are wonderful.
