Hello everybody.

I've recently reinstalled Silent Hunter 3, first time in a very long time, and right away started reinstalling some of the old mods. I see that GWX is up to 3.0 now, impressive.

Anyways, I have a 16:10 1440*900 screen. I've done my research of course and found out about the DX9RES10.DLL file that will allow you to customize the resolution of the game, only problem is, while it did work once it doesn't seem to work for me anymore. I don't understand it, especially since it worked only a couple of hours ago.

I've installed the Toolkit that's been recommended and went through all the steps mentioned here:

The game still crashes at start up, right after the GWX intro with the popup pointing towards the dll file as the cause. I'm really at a loss here. Maybe one of you kind gentlemen would either know another way I can change the resolution ( I was planning on using 1200 * 900, a native 4:3 res for my monitor) or maybe know what's going on here and can point me in the right direction?

I'd be much obliged.
