Peculiar Gw3 gold problem :)

Rölli · 08-01-09, 01:21 PM

Hello everyone

Has anyone stumbled upon this ? Everytime i dock at my homebase and want to quit the game the war seems to end

( the date is oct 1939, fastest world-war ever ) . With that i mean, everytime i try to load a savegame it lists end of war ( or something alike ). The results are same even if i start a new mission and leave port before reaching my patrolgrid. It's not really a problem but i find it a bit funny

, i'll just load up from mid-mission and continue ( and save mid-mission ) from there. Everything done and installed according to instructions.

Sounds like you might some residual files left over from a previous install.

Try uninstalling GWX, SH3 and any other mods you have installed.
Then when you are sure you have everything removed.
Go through the step by step instructions listed in this link.

Make sure you use the right set-up instructions for the OS you are running be it XP or Vista.

I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the reply

As i said, i just think its funny. If it doesnt work i'll just save my game when i have patrolled my grid for 24 hours instead of in port. It works for me

And thanks to the GWX team for a fantastic mod

Make sure when saving the game. That you not not save while closer than 50km to land or in sight of ships.

I'll keep that in mind too. Thanks for your help

I wouldn't settle for a make do installation....I'd follow the advice given by mrchris matey.

Uninstall using the option on the SH3 game disc.

Delete the SH3 folder in C\MyDocs.

Perform a registry clean and reinstall for a much better gaming experience.

SINK EM ALL!!

The registry cleaning did the trick

Thanks

Now, to load up the last game. Managed to get myself in a deckgun duel with an S-class. Run away ? Nope, this i have to see to the end
