I run sh3 commander with it, although its kinda bugy as far as patroll options happening right every patrol its other wise working chek. now the issue..gwx3.. it takes the install and it fires right up no issue their.. save nomatter what i seem to do it crashes at about 90% mission start every time. iv tried about every thing i ccan think ov.. iv un installed and re installed a fiew times.. steam sh3+gwx3=90%load in at mission start ctd. I have tried this with and with out sh3 commander so iv ruled that one out i think, iv tried using all the run with settings i can think of.. im at a loss here. im running win7 home pro i believe with a quad core gen 2 chip, 8 on the ram, and an nvidia 980 gtx. just a note iv logged about a week of time vinilla sh3 alreaedy with out issues svae for the late war non stop air spam!.. plz this is my 2-3 post for help in different sections of the forium and iv gotten no responce so i made my own thread since the others seem dead already. thx for any help and time spent on me in advance.

right now im running sh3 vanilla with shcommander installed with no issues.. i can clean it all out and do the fresh install then add gwx3 and see what comes up..like i said i tried, i used to run it and it appears it dose work with steam version and windows 7 reportedly but i have ben doing something wrong.. im trying t find the md5 mate program to check the files md5hash codes.. that's where im at is just verifying the integrity of the dl atm. but im not having luck finding the program either. love is sometimes hard work.

If memory serves me right (been a while since I downloaded GWX) there is at least one download location with a faulty GWX rar file. Did you get any errors when installing GWX, about a corrupt file?

EDIT: Did you get the additional files needed for GWX3 and Cmdr to work together?

ok theirs more then one question here... first the install has ben flawless every time with zero errors... iv done this 5 times now.. and for the second question about sh3 commander... yes i got the extra files and ruled sh3commander out all together as iv tryed gwx3.0 clean and with sh3 commander on 2 different instals with same results. As far as i can remember i didnt need any other files for 3.0 when i used that on my old machine.. hope that helps
