Multiple Installs and SH3Cmdr
 
I have two installations of SH3,one default patched 1.4b with SH3Cmdr and one with NYGM. SH3Cmdr has its own directory X:\program files\SH3Commander, so how can I install it again to run with NYGM?

I have also tried GWX and it is awsome :Dbut unfortunatly with my present system(P4 3ghz,1024mb,Radeon Sapphire Atlantis 9600) it keeps ctd with a dead monitor especially at night attacking a convoy.:cry:I think its something to do with the extra searchlights.

When I get a new system in the future I will come back to it as I found SH3 GWX better than SH4 at the moment.Anyway Its the original question at the top I am interested in so Thanks in Advance.

This is what you need. The post was made for GWX but it should work for all installations

The way to do multiple installation is simple

1. Install a clean version of SH3 in the C\Program Files\Ubisoft\SH3
2. Patch it to 1.4b
3. Copy the whole folder and paste it whenever you want the new installation to be. After that rename it to whatever you like. Let's say GWX.
4. Now put the multiSH3 into the GWX folder and run it. When asked put GWX as the default directory where your careers will be saved.
5. After all this install GWX in the GWX folder, make a shortcut to the desctop and you're ready to play.
6. Now you can install the SH3Cmd 2.7 including all the extra Cfg Files (if needed)
7. After the installation is complete you right-click onto the desktop icon. You click on properties and where it say target you type "C:\Program Files\SH3 Commander\SH3Cmdr.exe" /l:"C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\GWX. Now this is the example of my SH3Cmd that will check the files in the My Documents\GWX folder that is generated by the C\Program Files\Ubisoft\GWX installation. After that this particular installation of SH3Cmd is linked to that installation of SH (GWX in this case).

I would suggest you do a different installation of SH3Cmd for each different installation of SH you have. That way you don't get the SH3Cmd confused and you don't mess up things.

Also I would suggest to leave the clean patched version of SH3 in the C\Program Files\Ubisoft\SH3 untouched as that way you can always copy it and paste it to add new mods. If you want to make new installations always copy and paste this folder and DO NOT USE the Installer of SH3 again (at least not for as long as the game is already installed)
