that is not installed in the usual MODS folder like all the other mods. You need to install a second jsgme program, this one in your SH3Commander,

I know i know thats what i did i installed the game the mod SH III commander following the instructions, thats why i and some other people are sick to see this campaign file causing CTD. :)

That's because the Full Interiors DON'T work with the campaign, only with single missions ATM. Game goes out of memory, AFAIK it can only use 3.8 GB RAM with the special patch (also a Windows XP limitation), but not more alas.
I guess that dependent on computer systems this 3.8 RAM restriction can cause crashes, it would be good if *any* needed RAM could be used, but it's hardly possible to make such a mod I think, the sh3.exe has its limitations.

I never used this full interior mod ^^

So there is definitively a problem with this campaign file from WAC 5.0 that should be resolved i think.........

What about the meditarranean campaign?
Did you test?

I am using 7zip but when i attempt to extract I get an "unsupported command" and a location of the file. Any help please?

to be more specific, when i extract the file into my WAC folder before 7zip finishes it says "unexpected end of data". I downloaded from Hansolo subsim post!

@bstanko6

I can upload a selfextracting exe file in the evening. Maybe this helps to avoid installation problems.

bstanko6 03-01-18 01:09 AM

I appreciate it. Thanks.

HanSolo78 03-01-18 05:47 PM

So..this is now WAC5.01 selfextracting file:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/b6o5ww...paign_5.01.exe

Just Open and extract.
Then activate with JSGME.

Hopefully this will be a success for you.

bstanko6 03-02-18 12:01 AM

Can't wait thanks!

That is proof that there is no problem with a campaign file :Kaleun_Wink:

Because almost everyone other can load both campaigns!

I just have said it in another post, assumed that you did install SH3 and the mod correctly, it takes minutes for WAC to load and it is normal that the screen goes black. Retry without touching mouse or anything and just wait to be in the 3D world. Be sure you have no active programs running in the background, inclusive virus scanners.

Here the normal install order in JSGME after you have patched sh3.exe for supporting 4GB RAM :

WAC main mod
WAC patch
Campaign file (ONLY 1 of the 2!)
Optional WAC mods (and for WAC only...)
Widescreen mod (preferably the ones optimized for WAC).

WAC is installed how it should be so i followed the tutorial :)

Start a career load it, and stuck at 90% then CTD.
