I gotta admit I get the exact same 'lag" as the original poster is talking about. It only happens with GW 1.1a, not in Flight Sim, NR2003, BF1942, Brothers in Arms etc. Also does not happen with any other "mod" in SH3 or with vanilla SH3.
Sometimes happens only once a patrol sometimes several times. Usually something "triggers" it. An eel exploding into a ship can, sometimes surfacing after running submerged for a few hours into a heavy storm, sometimes it seems certain speech files can trigger it. I have found no rhyme or reason to it. Have changed drivers (both sound and videos) set video settings to everything under the sun, even changed back to the old 1024 resolution.
All I have to do when it happens is save and exit, reload SH3 and all is fine again. It really is not a big deal, only takes a couple minutes to reload but I have not yet gotten to the bottom of it. Hopefully it does not happen with GWX but if it does its a quick fix to get back to smooth sailing as I do now.
