Firstly this is more than likely me not doing something right, but after reading all the readme's for everything I can find, I'm still at a loss.

Basically I'm having to manually start GWX after launching through SH3 Commander.

The first half dozen-or-so times everything was as expected and it launched correctly, but now when I click the tick in SH3C nothing happens; I then have to double click the desktop shortcut for GWX to launch the game. After loading though it still says "launched via SH3 commander" in the scrolling text at the bottom of the main menu.

Everything works from then on until exiting the game when SH3C should pop-up, but it doesn't. If I try to open SH3C I get a warning box saying SH3C has found a running instance of SH3 and it should be closed before trying to open SH3C again. The only way to do this is by restarting the PC; at no time either in the initial attempt to launch or after exiting the game does SH3 appear in the task manager applications (even though SH3C seems sure it is running and GWX seems to accept it was started through SH3C).

Has anyone seen this behaviour before or have an idea how to fix it please?

Mod list:
GWX Gold
SH3Cmdr Config files for GWX3.0
H.sie V16B1 (including 4Gb patch)
GWX - 16k atmosphere
GWX - Alternate loadscreen - full circle
GWX - Enhanced damage effects
GWX - Lite harbour traffic
GWX - No medals on crew
GWX - open hatch mod
MFM - Improved

Lifeboats&debris_v4
Pinupgirls1
Type VII No4
Waterstream+exhaust combi v2.3 for GWX
o2 gauges - v2
Suppliment to V16B1

Cheers,

Steve.
Not sure, but I know there's info. in the SH3Cmdr docs that state once one uses it to run SH3, try to avoid starting SH3 without it or it can cause problems.
