Please Help With GWX 1.02 Patch
 

Hello all!

I have been away for some time and am in need of some help. I have installed the GWX Mod. First off, I uninstalled SH III and patched to 1.4b to ensure a fresh install. I then installed GWX but I can't install the 1.02 patch. It says that "GWX needs to be installed with or without hot fixes" before I can apply the patch. I have infact installed GWX, not with the JSGME program, and I did fire up SH III to verify that the GWX mod was installed. I even deleted everything in my mods folder with the exception of the GWX folder but it still gives me the error message. I am lost and would appreciate any and all help from this wonderful community of WW II sub sim enthusiasts. Thank you for your time and help in advance. :D

When you uninstalled SH3, did you FULLY remove the files and folders left behind? Not doing so leaves files that are just waiting to "taint" your reinstallation.

I didn't search the registry, so maybe that's what I need to do. Thanks for the reply. I'll uninstall again and search for any lingering files.

You shouldn't need to clean the registry. I supose you can if you want. Did you remove the SH3 folder in the "my documents" folder? That's usually the one people forget to remove.

I hadn't removed that folder the first time but I did last night, after another uninstall. I still received the same message when trying to apply the patch even after deleting that folder. There must be something I'm missing though so I will check again and do another uninstall. Thanks for all of your help.
