Hi VonApist: After I install the game(exactly same as you except commander 2.7) I right click on the SH3 desktop icon and went to properties. open Properties and click on the compatibility tab. Click on run this program in compatibility mode for: pick win XP service Pack 3. I hope this will help. Also I dont know anything about commander 2.7; did you try the game without that mod. Good Luck LW

You spent like 3 paragraphs letting steam , frustrated that I wrote 8 words in a sentence. It would make more sense to tell me "mate check solutions for 7, works for 8 too".
my point is:
don't come here and say "this sucks".
becvause YOUR original statement was even more irrelevant than mine.
your statement was a waste of time.

why?
it was destructive.

the statement was "it does not work"
It was not even the slightest hint of "does anybody have a solution or an idea of a solution"

And you call me a grumpy old man?
Are you really looking to push me?

At least i show you a good attitude and a magnificent tool: your eyes and your methodic Brain!
Read and you will win! whine about something, without even *ASKING* for help, and you will not fix the problem!
Change your attitude, do not look at what's broken! Look at a way to fix it!

You behaved in a stupid manner!
the intelligent thing to do is to open your eyes, read some and think it over. "Maybe there is already a solution for the Win8 problem?"
"Ah! there is a thread on Win7...! And it covers Vista too?"

I will press my point once again.
This is a workshop. In workshops, things are made working.
We don't focus on the problem. We focus on a path to a solution.

and that is my advice to you.

...Exremely (sad and) annoyed. Damn.
have a nice day.

Whatever your interpretation of the above post we pride ourselves on being polite with one another in this community and you may take this as a polite warning (mainly due to your smiley).

This aint only a workshop pops. This is a forum. And if i want to let steam politely without offending anyone i can do so by saying that "I cant load and it sux. " Its not whining. Its letting steam off. Got it?

I fixed my problem and all runs fine now. Not cause of you. Obviouly. Cause Gustav old man, if you are in a workshop, as you say, ur suppose to work. Not "patronise". You did much of the second.

Now YOU probably have nothing else to do in your busy life but to try to make a psychological profile of me and offer me "advice" like "your brain is a magnificent tool" and the rest.

Maybe you have a following or teen aged groupies that allow u to talk to them like that, but Gustav, this aint working with me. Cause im also pretty old.

So if I wanna start a thread saying, "damn the DD rammed me" or "blimey my mission CTD'd" i can do it without asking your permission, as long as it doesnt offend anyone? Got it? Dont read it. Dont comment on it.

And above all, Gustav, dont patronise. Got it, grumpy guy?

PS. judjing by the rants you write, calling what i write stupid, is a joke.

Push you? u dont need a push. Your overboard already man.
