is sh3 commander compatible with gwx? Also I tried to download gwx 3.0 and once I click on setup and after I choose english as the primary language it ask me to insert disk number 7 what does that mean?

Yes SH3 Commander is compatible as long as you install the GWX 3.0 config files into SH3 Commanders cfg. folder. Did you put all of the .bin files into a folder with the .exe file?

There are comprehensive installation instructions on the GWX website (click on my sig).

ok I read the instructions and I see that you have to uninstall and reinstall the game. the only bad part about that is I cant find the box for the game so when I try to reinstall it I will have to put in the activation code that was in the box that I cant find. is there anyway around that?

Well, for $10, you can get a new disc, patched to 104b and not requiring the DVD to be in the disc drive.
Otherwise, how does it feel to be screwed?

I don't think so; perhaps if you contact Ubisoft support they may help.

You know, I've uninstalled and reinstalled SH3 at least once a month since I bought it in 2005. That means I've done so 50 times or more, and except for the original install it has never asked me for that code key.

'Nuff said.
