Thanks for the replies and tips.
Obviously, you can probably tell that I'm a noob...second time around that is.
I bought SH3 when it was originally released but gave up on it when I realized I was in over my head. I then went back to my FPS games.
However, I love simulations and wargames, especially the WW2 era.
This time I am determined to learn and master SH3...with the help of you guys of course

By the way, I did download the GWX mod and the installation went smoothly. The GWX mod is the reason that my interest in SH3 was reawakened
