Gwx 2.1 Manual And Error Problem

[FIREWALL]

These are the two issues.

Is this what the GWX 2.1 manual supposed to look like when opened with Notepad ?

And it goes on and on and on....

This is the Error message after CTD.

APP name SH3 exe.
APP ver 1.4.0.1
Mod name kernel .dll
Mod ver 0.0.0.0
Offset 00012008

Any help with this is appreciated.

Ahem:hmm:, the GWX manual is a pdf-file. You should install the adobe reader (which is on your SH3 disc) to read the manual

[FIREWALL]

I have Adobe Reader 8.


I can see nobody wants to touch that error message problem.:rotfl:

Yes it should look like this. The manual is in PDF format (i.e. something like printer language) and there is no reason why it should be opened with Notepad. Therefore the error you're getting is perfectly normal

[ichso]

Hm, I wonder whether notepad tries to present some ascii arts to make up for the images a pdf viewer would be able to present :hmm:

If you have Adobe Reader but the manual opens in Notepad?
Reset the file associations.


And I haven't seen a problem yet I won't touch!

Good Let's move on to game ctd I also posted with error message I posted.

Happens when I look at target in periscope.

Only when you look at target in periscope you CTD?
Give me install details Please.
You rolled back ALL JSGME or 2.1 would not install.
You rolled back SH3 Commander?
2.1 WILL install even if not rolled back because it was deemed to system intensive
to assure the correct install of SH3 Commander was rolled back.
Your not trying to use a 2.0 Career?
Those may or may not fly.
No promises, no guarantees!!!
DETAILS MAN!!
:rotfl:
The Devil is in the details!!!

Did uninstall and all install fresh this way.

) Uninstall SH3 USING THE GAME DISK if you have one. (You will need to create a fresh
installation of SH3 to assure stability.)
2) Verify that the "SH3" folder in "My Documents" has been DELETED. If it has not,
delete it manually.
3) Reboot your PC
4) Reinstall SH3 and patch to version 1.4b if your disk does not already contain the
version 1.4b patch.
5) Reboot your PC again
6) Install GWX 2.0 as described here:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...44&postcount=1
Once you have a properly installed copy of SH3 1.4b with GWX 2.0 you are ready for the next simple sequence.
A) Create a new folder on your desktop and label it "GWX 2.1 Update"
B) Download the "GWX21 Update.exe file to the folder you just created on your desktop.
C) Turn your speakers up!
D) Double click the GWX21.exe file and follow the directions that appear.

Haven't installed SHC 3.0 yet.

I still have not been able to duplicate the problem.
No other mods installed correct?

Well I guess it's off to flight and raceing sims for me.

Sorry to say there's more bugs here than a skid row flop house.

Interesting comment. I followed the instructions and have been happily playing with no problems at all. I would say the "Bugs" are all at your end, not with GWX.

Hmm, since you're the only one of hundreds of people playing GWX 2.1 it's a bit arrogant to say that your problem is a bug. The GWX team tried to polish their final release as much as possible and still people cry "bug" on the first problem that occurs.

I had a problem myself with my new GWX 2.1 install because the micky mouse voice bug from stock SH3 was suddenly back. I searched a little bit, reinstalled and noticed that i haven't put the S3Commander files for GWX 2.1 in the appropriate folders.

It's pretty lazy coming to the forums, writing "There's a bug" and getting off to other games, because there' no one who can solve your problem for you.

Well I hope you enjoy the Flight and Racing Sims more than GWX and you have no problems with your computer.

As far as the CTDs you're talking about since nobody else is reporting them it means there must be something wrong with your system. What I would suggest is to totally uninstall SH3/GWX and reinstall it. This might fix the problem. If that doesn't work then there is not much more I can suggest.

Good Luck
