Hi all.
New kid on the block and new to SH. Was advised by a friend to get into the SH Subsims and given a copy of SH3 as Mac said its the best one by far to get going with.
Big problems though, cannot get it to load with my Windows 8 running and in a months time will have Windows 10, can anyone help or give advice please.

Tried dropping your desktop resolution to 1024*768?

Also, get GWX 3.

Well the Steam version works fine on my Windows 8.1, so this has to be possible. Get the latest patch. Then get GWX :-)

I think you may need to run the game as administrator ( I am prompted to do this, when running it from Steam )
