Default GWX 2.1

Hey all
I've been away from SHIII for about a year now.... life got in the way...I noticed that there is a new GWX mod available. I went to the download page and found that there is only one file (GWX2.1.exe) which is like 158mb or something. Is this the only thing I need to download or is there more. I apologize for this question I'm sure I could find it someplace but I just dont have the time. (again life...)


Thanks
Jan

Welcome back m8

You need a "clean" install of SH3 patched to 1.4 then you have to download/install GWX2.0 and then download/install GWX2.1 over it. Well worth the time it takes
I'm sure if I'm mistaken someone will correct me

There should be seven files, which, when placed together in the same folder will then let you install it from the #1 .exe file. The total size is 1.2 GB. Yes, GWX 2.1 is roughly 1/3 the size of the stock game.

And maddysad is right: you need a fresh clean install of the game patched to 1.4b.
