Default Just bought SH3 on steam, Grey wolves wont install

It's saying there is modded files when there is not. What's going on? I played for like 10 hours and I want to install grey wolves now but it is not allowing me.

since you played it , it will say the files are modified, you have to have a clean installation, all patched up. i would recommend SH3 commander with it too though, its very fun to look at the info of ships you sunk/what they were carrying.

it is a bit confusing to install all these mods correctly, but it is good idea to read the manual of GWX about installation , or the various threads on the forum. i would link and stuff but i am very tired i need to sleep

So I deleted everything in my documents, and uninstalled the game, and uninstalled the commander. Reinstalled the game. GWX3 is still telling me that "There is modded files or you did not install patch 1.4"

FOUND THE ISSUE!

The installer was pointed at the wrong area.

It was pointing to a nonexistant folder in /ubisoft/silent hunter 3, when it should be in /steam/steamapps/silent hunter 3
