I'm using the dvd version of the game, patched up to 1.4 with the grey wolves mod added on top. I also have jsgme. Sounds like I need to get SH3 Commander loaded on my machine too.

Just so I'm clear on SH3 Commander. I need to start a career and then save it before I do anything. Then, leave the game and run SH3 Commander to change around my game. Then go back into the game and play?

When I leave harbour I sail out past all the buildings and ships manually. Once I'm clear I plot a course to bring me out into open water. Twice I've hit mines and twice I've gone through no problem. Where in the GW mod can you see the mines? On the main nav map once you zoom in or something?

Can I go back and add some of the GW features (like disable friendly mines or longer view distances) on top of my game now, or do I need to do a complete re-install.

It's too bad that all your spare crew don't fill up the foward compartments on the boat automatically when you crash dive. That would have been neat.
