Good Luck Kaleun




1. Uninstall SH3 via Windows' "Add/Remove programs"
2. Open Windows Explorer and:
- *delete* the folder where you had installed SH3
- *delete* the \My Documents\SH3 folder
3. Reinstall SH3
4. If your SH3 did not come with patch v1.4b already included, install patch v1.4b. Ensure you install the patch that corresponds to your copy of SH3 (Download/DVD/EMEA/US)
5. OPTIONAL: Copy and paste this "clean" install as a backup to avoid the need to follow steps 1-3 if your game becomes corrupt in future
6.Download into the SAME folder GWX.exe and the five .bin files. While there grab the v1.03 patch
7. Run GWX.exe and follow the installation prompts
8. Run GWX103.exe and follow the installation prompts
9. SH3 COMMANDER USERS: Download the GWX 1.02+ Cfg files for SH3 Commander and unzip the contents DIRECTLY into your SH3 Commander\Cfg folder.

Hi all

Many many thanks for your suggestions. With my limited time, I shall try later this week - it cost me already a lot of time with no fun.

Playing SH4 and SH3 side by side already makes the choices very difficult - so I am really looking forward to next GWX version already. I think, that gameplay is way more demanding in SH3 than SH4 - naturally due to the different environment. So both games have equivalent funpotential ...

I was just wondering - having a new - working - installation of SH3 1.4b and no possibility to (re)install GWX ?! But I shall try again - cleaning folder stuff (and maybe registry as well) and reinstall again. Maybe it helps ?

thanks again
