Are you using an old original SH3 or a new one? The new ones come already patched, and adding the patch again just screws it up.

By the way, when I said I was right there with you I meant in age. I'd say you have a little over a year on me.:rock:

II figured you meant age. By the way I noticed your Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club emblem. I spent my time there. Yankee Station, PIRAZ. On the USS Long Beach CGN-9.

No I have the orginal boxed version from 2005. I just installed it last night on this pc.

Awesome! USS Brinkley Bass (DD-887). Junior apprentice radioman.

And hmm. I don't know what the problem would be then. Is it the right patch (the US DVD version)? That does make a difference. Also sometimes removing and reinstalling the game will make it work. I don't like to remember how many times I've done that.

GWX is exactly what your Mother warned you about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:har: :har: :har:

Radionman 2nd Class. 1969-1973. Small world.

I will try to unistall and reinstall. If a miracle happens and I get it patched and GWX-3 in place I would like to talk to you about any additions you use to GWX-3 to make it more entertaining. I did check and it shows I am using the US version for DVD not downloads.

GWX Intergrated orders
GWX 3.0 All weather guns
GWX alternate loadscreen
Thomsens Ships V3.1
Lifeboat and debris V3b

Hi Yolo911:

After you get GWX3.0 up and running, you will notice that JSGME (JScones Generic Mod Enabler) is also installed. This is a great utility that allows you to easily and painlessly switch on several mods as per your likening. It looks like this:

As you can see, I use the 'Open Hatches' mod, the 'Damage' mod and the 'Lifeboats & Debris' mod - a great set of initial mods to turn on as a start. Here is a screenshot of both the 'Damage' and the 'Lifeboats & Debris' mod in action :yeah:

On the main screen where you decide what mission or options to do down the bottom right of the screen should be tyhe version number.If its 1.4 its cool and already patched(i think lol)

Stratos 03-15-09 05:05 PM

Unfortunately is not there. Any other idea please?

TheDudTorpedo 03-15-09 10:35 PM

Is there a readme.txt file in the installation folder? That give you some version information?

Stratos 03-16-09 03:43 AM

Thanks for the readme idea. I'm now on 1.4 with GWX 3.0 installed! North Atlantic here we go!

TheDudTorpedo 03-16-09 03:45 AM

Great! Glad to be of service :up:

Once you have got used to GWX3, try some of the excellent MODS avialable for that - you will love it :rock:
