The first posts on this thread have been updated, WolfHunter. Have you read them? I suggest that you do.

I can load the Naval Academy missions.

My specs

AMD Athlon 3.2
1.5gb DDR2 ram
ATI 9600 256mb graphics

Can you please help

Thanks

Bill

Looking at your specs I estimate it should take approx 7/8 mins on first loading

You have the same processor and only 500MB less than me

I have exactly the same thing, the red bar fills up completely but nothing seems to happen.

This is normal....what I do is watch the HDD led like a hawk (or do what danlisa said ) eventually it will start doing stuff and you'll get the not so long ago... screen

The discrepancy between the red bar and the actual loading of the game is greatest when you start the game the first time, after that it will return to normal

don't get discouraged mate, there's a fat tanker with your name on it out there

Seriously, anything from 5 - 10 mins is normal. Have a cup of tea, smoke, kiss & cuddle etc . It will load. If the game wasn't going to load, it will crash to desktop and give you a warning message.

Well your problems isn't nothing compering mine problems,i had to wait the whole week to get the GWX 2.0 to downloaded.I've been smoking,drinking coffee and kissing my wife now 4 days . But i'm a real man,i can wait,even if it takes my whole health away.And i'm going donate few bucks,but only after when i get GWX to downloaded

I'm a bit late with this, but I should've clarified that I certainly meant the German sounds. Which is to say the voice very clearly yelling "Sani!" - the voice is actually from the Gibraltar scene in Das Boot where Kriechbaum is wounded and they're bringing him back into the boat

I'll keep blaming Bernard I guess :p

That is odd... on the copy I pulled from the Subsim links, I have the crew cheering and then being cut short with "SCHLIESS!!!" from the torpedo officer from the movie Das Boot.

Wierd.

I get what KL gets. Could it be misheard as sani?

[Jimbuna]

Definitely sounds like "SCHLIESS!!!" to me

I'm relatively new to the whole idea of modding games for more realism, but when I tried GWX 1.3 I was instantly hooked. It improved gameplay, immersion, realism and it made the game for fun - at the same time! You guys must have really work yourselves to the bone to make a modification this massive - the amount of detail is amazing. And what I've read about the 2.0 version, you'll raise the bar to a whole new level.

EDIT: Removed some text

If you don't mind, could you remove the mention of the above site?

There are some very under handed & deceitful people in this community and they are cheapening the donations and support already offered. Some people carry a grudge for a long time.

Thank you for your support in this matter.

We are really glad you have enjoyed 1.03 and GWX v2.0 will be a whole new adventure. Please enjoy it.

EDIT - Thank you very much.

Hello mates.

I have read that one has to uninstall SHIII and reinstall in order to properly dl GWX 2. I have a clean copy of SHIII patched to 1.4 on my hard drive. Could I just use that rather than go through uninstall/reinstall?

Thanks for all your efforts!

Yes, as long as it's clean & unmodded.

Oh, BTW it's not a requirement to download GWX, just to properly install it.

Thanks danlisa. You are always right there, aren't you?
