I have it working with Windows 7 x64 without any special files from Ubisoft, so I'm guessing it will also work with Vista x64 (perhaps a big assumption). See my earlier post (3 posts up from this one).
Cheers, Andy

ok tried following your suggested steps today and yesterday, and still no luck! as I said before the original quote was made in reference to my exact problem down to the last detail! I have contacted Ubi and hopefully they send me the file, If they do I will try to host it somewhere so that it can then be easily downloaded by future users! thanks for advice tho!
I have found torrents but they all come in parts, I was looking for 1 file like that on the GWX team site! I will Keep searching! AGAIN UNRELATED BUT I saw SH4 in a shop today but didnt have any money on me, any verdicts? From what I've read I don't think it will be as good as SH3!

I reinstalled SH3, then used the update tool and then run SH3. It asked the Cd-code and then it worked.
I have Vista laptop, and SH3 works correctly, but when I am at external views, bridge or commandroom, I get ony 3 FPS. In navigation map, even if I have 1024x TC, it gives about 60 FPS. Thank god I still have my Windows XP

Even though Vista is much hated and maligned, it won't cause framerate drops of 90+% (say 30 fps to 3 fps) - something else is wrong and you will have similar problems with Windows XP. Cheers, Andy

If I "watch" water or ues external camera underwater, the game works properly, 20-30 FPS! But if I watch the sky or the horizon, the game starts to lagg 2-3 FPS.
Btw, anyone know how to zoom in periscope, deck gun or UZI? I have laptop and it haven't that funny rorrel between the mouse buttons?

Hi,
Your frame drop is because something is eating up your CPU/memory/video card. It could be a mod. Or it could be a video card problem in laptops due to shared memory. First thing I would due is run SHIII v1.4b and see if your frame rate is good. If you have this problem with the vanilla game, you don't have enough power. To zoom in, use the tab key; to zoom out, use SetKeys to activate the zoom out command (I use CTRL+tab) http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=1016 Since you have a laptop, SetKeys will allow you to program a lot of keys to avoid using the function keys

Just wanna mention that installation on Windows 7 is basically as Installing on Win XP.
Regular in other words. Win 7 is in many ways more like XP than Vista, contrary to popular belief. |
