Installing 1.4b, JGSME, GWX, SH3Cmdr etc.

[AlbertVonKnopfke]

I don't like repeating what others might have done already and I did read other posts on guiding newbies / noobs on how to properly install all that is needed to run GWX / SH3 Cmdr combo with other GWX-compatible mods. But i'm still confused and I see that others are as well. Can you guys confirm for me that this is the proper order and instructions to follow:

1. Install the 1.4b patch - do I run it from the SH3 dir ??? Restart after ???

2. Install JGSME as per install directions ??? Restart after ???

3. Install the GWX using the GWX.exe and the bin files directly from the from the SH3 dir ???

4. Install SH3Cmdr

5. And other GWX-compatible mods using JGSME ???

Yes, you got it mostly correct. JSGME is included in GWX, no need to do a separate install. No need to run that patch from the dir. It will find its way by it self, i think.. No need to restart between installs. Hope this helps, mate!

Maybe now the new SHCommander come with the GWX cfg.files added in, at the GWX launch they were not and had to be added in via a seperate d\l.

Anybody know if this is still the case.

1. Ok - so patch 1.4b, GWX/JGSME

2. SH3Cmdr ver. 2.6

3. Followed by the GWX cfg files for the SH3Cmdr ??? Does this go into the C drive or the drive where the software is installed ???

4. If all goes well - I should have the GWX running over the vanilla

5. How do I run the SH3 on top of that ???

7z.exe (you can download this from Sourceforge.net project site). Quite easy to use, similar to WinZIP.

I can't understand your question. Have a look at the GWX Manual - you have installing SH3 Commander described there easy way.

Just run the .exe file and you'll see. It's unbelievably easy.

Read manuals!

Hi

1: Just execute the file where ever it is. IT finds your install.
2: JGSME is in the gamefolder it self from the beginning.
3: Make sure you have all GWXfiles in the same folder of your choise. Then execute the GWX.exe and it runs by auto.
4: I have SH Com. in a seprate folder. You then start SHIII/GWX with SH Com.
5: You have to have "7-Zip File Manager-program" to unzip most mods. You unzip the mods to the "mods"-folder under the SHIII directory. Open JGSME and enable the mod.

Good Luck!
