GWX just won't start!

RedMenace · 01-02-07, 04:08 PM

So I uninstall SH3, delete all the remaining files, including the SH3 folder in My Doc's. Then I check the state of my GWX files to see if theyre corrupted, which they arn't. So I install SH3, then add the patch. I install GWX, and add its patch.

The game installs, starts, and loads fine. Problem is, it crashes whenever I try to start anything like a mission, a campaign mission, or even enter the museum. The loading screen for any of those gets to like 95% and then after a long while it goes to the desktop. Every single time.

This only happens with GWX, so I was wondering if anyone else has this problem?

Give us you computer specs. Did you ever run 1.1A without issue?

Yes, I ran 1.1A perfectly.

P4 2.7ghz, 512mb RAM, Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb, WinXP.

The specs are a bit low-end for now, I admit, but 1.1A ran excellent, so GWX should ATLEAST start. :p

Yes it should run fine. If 1.1 ran fine this should work also. I hate to say this but did you attempt a second install? If you decide to omit the patch fix and see if she runs for you. Might have to do the process of elimination here.

Haha, I wish it was only a second install. I've tried reinstalling this thing like 5 times. :p

Oh, and 1.1A works fine, and the game without any mods works great. GWX though, without or without its patch, just won't start.
