Hey folks.

I had a problem after my last career was ended by some pesky frigates. Sh Commander wouldn't recognise any campaign I wished to start so I had to reinstall Sh3 patch up & then installed GWX3 again. After enabling the usual mods through JSGME,I tried running the game which worked in the training missions but not in the career mode.

I tried again tonight and got the same result:damn:

The list of mods I am running are;

GWX - 16km Atmosphere
GWX3.0 SpySat
GWX - Alternate Loadscreen - Full Circle
GWX - Integrated Orders
GWX - Main movie - 'Das Boot'
Longer Repair Times 2.04 (All)
OLC's Modified Searchlight Beams for GWX3
Rbs_SH4_effects_GWX_30_71
Q Ship mod GWX3.0
Torpedo damage Final ver2.0

What happens is I run the game start a career,set my crew & boat up and start mission. The red status bar at the bottom flies up to just before the end,where it used to take plenty of time going through the middle of loading,then stops and boots me back out to windows,are there any remedies to this?

My pc specs:
P4 3ghz
2Gb Ram
Nvidia 7600 256Mb
heaps of hard drive space

and as I said game is
Sh3 v1.4 + Gwx3.0
with Commander

Cheers guys,itching to ready a type IXC and head over to the carribean to enjoy some sunny weather after all the rain soaked patrols of my last career.

Unload the mods one at a time smallest to biggest and play each time . See if it helps .

It doesn't seem to matter what version of the SH3 game I buy and play, whenever I reach 1945 and upgrade to a type XXI boat it always starts at Bergen with the Radar destroyed.

Why?????? :cry:

Did you delete your SH3 folder in C\MyDocs and perform a registry clean to get rid of all the residual files from your previous install?

Are you playing vanilla or a modded game?
