Ahoy and Aloha.
Finally joining after being a SH fan for decades. My favorite SH was SHI Commanders series but hard to play on todays machines. I am anxious to get back to using SHIII after a many year hiatus.
I am a retired Air Force and DoD vet, love sub sims and WWII aerial combat games (Aces of the Pacific).
I am trying to download the entire "Gold"series of the GWX mod improvements. Does anyone have any suggestion as to the easiest method?
Again, very happy to be a new crew member.

Welcome to Subsim Duke Robinson. :sunny: The easiest method for downloading GWX is of course to download it. I would burn it off to a DVD as a backup but a flashdrive works just as well.

1) load Silent hunter into a file folder not associated with the default path like pictures or desktop for example. * very Important, don't close the window or click finish after loading the initial SH3 files.*

2) if you are using an older version of SH3, run starforce removal tool. If you don't have it or can't find it, let me know.

3) add the Ubi SH3 1.4 patch. It will find the SH3 directory on it's own without prompting.

4) Add GWX or the Megamod of your choice. Place and load these files in the same directory as the initial SH3 install.

5 ) There are files available which allows SH3 to be played without the DVD. These files are placed in that game folder as well. When placed, allow the new files to overwrite the old ones. after finishing this,

You can now click finish on the original SH3 install.

I hope this helps. This should get you started. If you have any problems, let us know.

Thank you for your service and enjoy your retirement. :Kaleun_Salute:
