Yes, it can be done;
I assume you have SH3 v1.4b, starforce free.
If you have modified you original install of SH3 in any way, you need to reinstall it
If you haven't modified your SH3 install, copy the SilentHunterIII folder to a DVD and save it.
Rename your installed folder "ubisoft_old"
Make a new folder "Ubisoft" and copy the SilentHunterIII folder into it.
Install GWX. AND RENAME THE SILENTHUNTERIII FOLDER TO GWX.
You cannot have two folders in the Ubisoft folder with the same name.
In your new install of Ubisoft/SilentHunterIII, install MultiSH3, (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=1869) and run it (instructions in the readme) and name the My Documents folder GWX
Copy the SilentHunterIII folder into the new Ubisoft folder and delete the folder "Ubisoft_old"
Make a copy of the SH3.exe shortcut and install it on your desk top; you will now have two exe shortcuts "SH3" and "SH3GWX."
READ THE GWX MANUAL, AND THEN REREAD IT.
Install SH3Cmdr for both installs
READ THE README FOR SH3CMDR AND JSGME, AND THEN REREAD THEM.
