Try Jimbuna's FileFront page:

http://www.filefront.com/user/JimbunaGWX2/

You want all 7 .bin files and the .exe file for GWX3. Download all to same location on your hard drive and run the .exe file. If the .exe file downloads without the .exe extension (there was a problem with FF doing this in the past) just rename it GWX3.exe and then it should open when double-clicked and the intallation will start.

I think there is an "all in one" download there as well, torrent maybe? If not there you can pop Jimbuna a PM and he can prolly help you out with getting it all in one pop. :up:

Rgr that.....Torrent, single file exe install or exe plus 7 bin files are all available from my FF page.

Can even arrange a copy on disc if you can't overcome any potential difficulties.

There were no seeders on the torrent the other day, but I was able to download all 8 files from Jim's page with no problem.

Rules to live by:

1. Keep a folder with every mod you've ever downloaded.

2. Keep a complete copy of the unmodded Data folder in a safe place.

3. Keep a list of all the mods you use and the order you installed them in.

4. Keep a copy of the Commands.cfg file set up the way you like it.

Do all that and you'll never have to ask somebody where you can get your favorite mod that you deleted.

That's why you keep the original downloads on a backup HDD. :smug:

Well, to be honest, I was in RAID 5, so my backup drive did fail too.

External HD are pretty reasonably priced these days and are connectable via the USB.

All the info I listed fits just fine on my 8-Gig Flash Drive.

When I need to retrieve something out of backup, I turn to my floppy fortress. 3rd column to the right from the left-rear corner, seventy disks down from the top. It's right there above the System Shock backups. :smug:
