Help! with installing GWX 3.0
I recently got SH3 (a few years late I know) and after all the rave reviews I downloaded Grey Wolves.
When I try to install, I get an error message saying "modded files detected" and I can't install. I am installing 1.4b off of Steam. I don't have any mods installed. I deleted everything related to SH3 and tried another install, but I get the same message when I try to install GWX3.0. Any ideas how I can get it to work? I don't have any modded files, unless Steam provides modded files! |

Ensure you have deleted the SH3 folder in C\MyDocs and perform a registry clean.
There are also comprehensive installation instructions available at the GWX website (click on my sig).

Well, I've done a clean reinstall, and deleted those folders, but still get the "modded files" error.
ARRRRRGH!!! There are no modded files! How do I do a registry clean? (Win7/64) |

Steam places the SH3 files in a different directory, usually under Steam/steamapps/common or the like.
Make sure you are pointing the GWX installer at the right file. |

Why not use one of the 4 patches provided by SubSim Downloads ?
One of the 4 patches will work with your SH3 Ver. Unless it's already PrePatched. http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...do=file&id=158 |

This took far, far too long for me to solve. Now to get out there and redeem myself.
