I'm stumped. I have read the tutorials and everything makes sense to me. Still, my two maps are not extending while using ARB WideGUI 1920 x 1080.
My system:
A Surface Book running Windows 10
Steam SHIII running GWX3 Gold
My JSGME state:
Activated Mods:
M.E.P. v6
GWX - Open Hatch Mod
Thomsens's Sound Pack V3.2cfg
GWX - Enhanced Damage Effects
Ahnenerbe WideGui 1920 x 1080 Final
supplement
(Why are the first three in a light shade of gray?)
I made a backup of sh3.exe.
I unzipped [S3H]_SH3-H.sie_V16B1-Patch-Kit
I copied my unpatched sh3.exe to [S3H]_SH3-H.sie_V16B1-Patch-Kit.
I ran Patch_SH3.bat which results in a patched sh3.exe and a backup

I unzipped TychoSh3Patch
I copy the patched sh3.exe from [S3H]_SH3-H.sie_V16B1-Patch-Kit to TychoSh3Patch\WorkFolder.
I run TychoSh3Patch.bat without modifying TychoSh3Patch.map.
I copy newly patched sh3.exe to "\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Silent Hunter 3"
I run sh3 and check my navigation map. Didn't work.
I read the tutorials and realized that I need to modify TychoSh3Patch.map.
Here are my mods:

[Hint - I removed the '@@@' in front of the addresses]
I copy newly, newly patched sh3.exe to "\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Silent Hunter 3"
I run sh3 and check my navigation map. Didn't work.
I read the tutorials and realized that I need to modify maps.cfg as well.
Upon examination I found maps.cfg was already modified:
