After a reinstall of my OP system I reinstalled my copy of SH3, and after trying to enter the patch SH3_DVD_1.4b_emea I got a message saying that the patch could not be added as the game identity was unrecognised. My original SH3 dvd was thrown away with a broken DVD tray, I got this latest copy from Amazon and it is called Revival? although I sure that all the patches etc were installed the last time I loaded it onto the PC.
As I could only add 4 mods anyway to the JSGME due to always getting messages that the mod I wanted was already overwritten (whatever that means) so I have decided to buy another copy of SH, hopefully genuine one.
Now for this I need some advice before I jump, because coming back to the site after quite some time I see that there is now a SH5 although it looks like some people don't rate it.
Unfortunately I don't know what mods work with which game best and I would like some help in finding a good game and mod combination.
With my last SH3 game I had 4 mods including the convoy mod which made the game much more interesting now I see a GWX and a LSH mod, so can anyone explain what is the difference between the two and which would be best when I get another SH3 dvd, or could I use them both?
Thanks Robert.
