I'm toying with the idea of porting the GWX campaign layer to SH4. I have some free time on my hands and would like to play with this, even though it may never actually happen

In case it does happen, who would I ask for permission to convert GWX 3.0 campaign layer to SH4?

I read it and found no answer to my question there. SHV is on the way and yet I want to tweak SHIV some more, imagine that :P

I also humbly ask that you in the community will lend your morale support to the above requests.
With respect. I don't think you realize exactly what you are asking. It is not as simple as just porting over campaign files.

What you are asking for is blanket permission to field every ship, airplane, land object, and every dolphin as well... effectively taking command of the vast majority of GWX property. That is what would be required for you to execute your wish. Beyond permissions for just using GWX campaign files... it would require scores of further individual permissions for individual objects.

For that reason, we politely decline your request and do not grant you permission. This statement is in line with our primary campaign file artists wishes resulting from previous conversations relating to the exact scenario you have placed before us.

We don't ever enjoy saying "NO" to anyone... but you have really asked too much of us here.

I've been away from GWX for far too long. (Damn those flight sims and EB! ) Back to my watery favourite I find that GWX 4 is no more. The trauma is severe and it will take much counselling before I recover.

A huge THANKYOU to all involved in the development of the GWX mods. I've only ever played around with text files for micro-mods and the vast amount of hard work and dedication needed to get something like GWX off the ground is mind boggling. You all should be incredibly proud of the fantastic work you've done. I will continue to enjoy GWX for years (even after SHV comes out - unless you get to work on that too ). The level of immersion and the accuracy is truly awesome!

Again, thank you all so very much for the brilliant and realistic mod you have created and made available (for free!) to everyone.

Best regards

Vermin

Default The game won't start!

Okay, I deleted my previous installation of the game entirely.

I installed it again, then patched to 1.4.

Then I installed the Gray Wolves mod.

However, the game won't start. The intro movies play fine, then it gets to the loading screen. The red bar crawls across the screen, then it freezes. The game just will not launch, no matter how much time I give it.

Any ideas?

"The NVIDIA GeForce Go 6100 / 6150 is an integrated graphics card of the NVIDIA nForce Go 430 MCP for AMD Turion notebooks. It doesn't have any integrated memory, but uses a part of the mainmemory (up to 128 MB) like the direct competitor Intel GMA 950. Therefore, the gaming performance is quite moderate and can only be used for elder games."

Unfortunately matey, your GFX card is rather weak when compared against the recommended specs for SH3+GWX. (Recommended GFX card strength for GWX is 256mb video ram or better.)

However, it may still run GWX (although I predict that it will do so poorly.)

ANY TIME that you set up a fresh/clean installation of SH3+GWX... the first time you load a career mission... it can take a LONG TIME to load... particularly for machines with less than recommended specs. (I'm talking 5-10 minutes here... so let it sit while you go make a cup of coffee/get something to eat etc.) A massive amount of coded material must squeeze through a data bottleneck that we can do nothing to enlarge... It is a limitation of the SH3 game.

Try loading up one of the integral training missions in the naval academy menu and let us know how you get on.
