I have not even attempted to install the StarForce version on Win 7 64 bit.
If I was to do so?
I'd probably try to SandBox it.
But at just over $7 dollars U.S.?
The time involved would cost me more money then the New releases.

And if it's the Atlantic theater you want, SH4 does have OM which IMO holds up well to the best SHIII mods have to offer, even with a few advantages of its own (including obviously better graphics, better crew management, and arguably the best-researched and detailed campaign traffic of all SH atlantic campaigns). On the minus side, it just lacks a lot of the bells and whistles (extra ships, objects, etc.) of SHIIIs advanced mods, along with Commander. But it's worth a try, and in fact I've played far more of it in the last 2 years than SHIII. So to my mind it's an adequate replacement for needing SHIII...

:yep: :up: Couldn't have said it better myself. I'm still stuck on both, SH3 because of Commander (I have to keep the Ship Names going) and the cute harbors, and SH4 for all the reasons mentioned above.

That said, if SH4 ever gets those things, I won't have a reason to keep SH3 on my computer.
