Newbie to SH3 is going to try out GWX...

Hey all, after playing vanilla for a week or so and hearing all the raves about GWX Ive downloaded it (wow, huge mod!) and will be installing it later tonight. (day is going slowly dammit).

Anyway, I got my game off steam, so I really dont want to have to uninstall and re-download it again via steam. I have not touched any files in SH3, its essentially a clean SH3 1.4b install, no mods. So do I really need to re-install it before GWX or can I just delete my current careers file in "my docs" as stated in the install instructions and then go from there?

Im assuming the GWX 2.1 is a self extracting patch to GWX 2 to be run after installing 2.0? Which leads me to anorth question, because my game is via steam Im not sure where to find it, I will find it but Im assuming I install GWX into the SH3 root file?

Another question, I heard that GWX dissabled the external camera (F12), if this is true is there a way to put it back?

Yes Im still green, just getting into trying manual targeting....

Thanks for any help, looking foward to the challenge.
