Default A Simple Question !

Hi everyone !
I've downloaded GWX 2.1 , and get positively surprised when I saw that the new SH3 Commander had been released
But here's the question; they said you can download the one 3.1 over the top of the old one , so I did it , but can I drag and drop , I did it with the file that come with the new update 2.1 into SH3 folder ????
hoping for soon response:p Good Hunting

Once you update your SH3Cmdr installation to v3.1 you need to add again the GWX only Cfg files to SH3Cmdr. I hope this helps

TBH I leave nothing to chance....I'd delete then install the newer version (not forgetting the CFG file of course)

Unless of course you're like me and you enable the files via JSGME in SH3Cmdr :p

Hello,
unfortunately this is not a simple question

That is how it reads:
"Download from the GWX site (http://gwx.mysite.orange.co.uk) and extract the contents into your SH3 Commander\Cfg folder. Refer to the readme.txt in the zip file for more detailed information. "

So i installed it directly into the cfg folder as written in the readme, so the folder structure now reads :
SH3 Commander\CFG\GWX_2.1_CFG_4_SH3Cmdr3.0 and below this folder there is again a cfg folder, and a Flotilla and U-boat folder.

I thought those folders should overwrite the CFG, Flotilla and U-boat folders directly under SH3 Commander ? Or is it ok the way i wrote it here ?

I must be the only one who does not understand how to install SH3.1 on GWX2.1 :rotfl: ....

Thanks and greetings,
Catfish

D/l and install Commander 3.1 into C/Programs

D/l and install JSGME into Commander 3.1 folder

Open up 3.1 and it should create a 'MODS' folder (if it hasn't already)

D/l the 2.1 CFG file and unpack it into the above MODS folder

Enable the CFG via JSGME
