So for a long time I have been playing with just GWX, and man is that a fun mod. However recently I came across the V16B1 patch, and I must say that piqued my interest.

Installation looked simple enough and everything said it worked with GWX. However when I took my sh3.exe into the patch folder, the bat file would say it was incompatible.

Next I tried doing a fresh install, extreme I know, and then did the installation and everything installed correctly, however then GWX would not install.

So now I have done a new install with a new batch of GWX with sh3 commander, wondering if I can install this patch or not. This is the steam version of the game, and I have admin permission set and compatibility for windows 7 set.

Looking at other posts, i have not found a solution to work. Hopefully I can avoid doing another fresh install, but at least this time I backed up the pre mod folder.

So what I am asking is, how do you get v16b1 to work with gwx?

No kidding eh! But then again they don’t call it the silent service for nothing!

This guy dealt with the same problem, maybe you can replicate his solution.

Using the automation, no issues.
