I am assuming that SH Commander does not get me all the way there. The reason for this post is that on Sat. a buddy will come over and help me with all this stuff and I do not want to waste alot of his time. He is great when it comes to computer file management and I am bad at it. It might be my last opportunity to get back into SH III. By the way I have a 4 year old XP based system and as I said I had SH III up and going 2 years ago so I am sure it will work. Hope some one can write back soon Thanks

Dear Johnlax,
I was pretty much in the same situation....
looking for a good mod with resupply at sea, and with an old PC....
I did this (in the order):
- Installed SH3
- Installed patch 1.4
- Installed GWX 3.0
(I think it's the best trade-off if your computer is not a killer)
- Installed SH3 Commander 3.2
(install files compliant with GWX 3.0)
- Selected my mods of choice via JSGME
(to avoid conflicts between mods)
Suggestions:
- Always launch SH3 via SH3 Commander
- With JSGME always install/remove new mods when you are in port and
not in the middle of a patrol...
BE ADVISED 1:
I did not resupplied at sea yet, but I've read somewhere in the forum that if you plan to do that, you have to setup "days at port after patrol" = 0 in SH3 Commander BEFORE you leave port.....otherwise you resupply will last as a normal period on the shore between patrols (which cannot be!)
Can anybody confirm?
I also cannot remember if you have to turnoff the "malfunctions" in SH3 Commander if you use GWX 3.0 to prevent problems....
Once again....
Can anybody confirm?
BE ADVISED 2:
About location of resupply subs ("milch cows" or milk cows!

)
I cannot remember where it was printed (LOCATION and DATE) but might be it should appear if you press F1 with GWX 3.0 activated.....
BE ADVISED 3:
These are the experiences and suggestions of a newbie!
Leverage the experience of the other experts of the forum!
There is a friendly cooperation and this forum is GREAT!
Good hunting Kaleun Johnlax!
Might your torpedoes never be dud!
