Is there a way to solve this?
any help would be greatly appreciated
Hi Farkenal, welcome to Subsim.

Believe it or not, that is normal. The majority of the new items loaded by the GWX mod occur during the last 5-10% of the loading bar.

We put a lot of stuff in there.

It is also natural to get the "not responding" message as your processor is busy.

All you need to do is wait longer. All that data passes through a game engine bottleneck and takes time. (Several minutes depending on your system.) Don't worry, it will load.

Faster systems make load times shorter... but money doesn't grow on trees does it?

Also, don't confuse the loading times with the need for higher system specs. As long as you have SH3 'recommended' specs... you'll be fine.

Load her up again... wait longer... and let us know how it went.
