Hi chaps,

Hope this will help, this is what I did:

1. Unzip using winzip or winrar etc. all the enclosed files in Anvart' download somewhere on you hard drive keeping them in the same folder eg. EditBin.

2. Copy an un-patched sh3.exe to this folder, note: for safety sake backup the sh3.exe somewhere safe before running the batch file as it doesn't automatically create a backup.

3. From the DOS prompt navigate to the EditBin folder and type the following command line:

EDITBIN.EXE/LARGEADDRESSAWARE SH3.EXE

(this will patch the sh3.exe)

4. Copy your patched sh3.exe from EditBin folder to your game folder

That's it, this will patch the sh3.exe, you still need the boot.ini lines.
as per the /4GB patch detailed earlier in this thread.

Best Regards

Aces

You're welcome mate, ah if we all spoke the same language the world would be a clearer and most probably a duller place.

Here we only speak the language of modding one of the most beautiful languages in the world!

Peace 'n love to all my fellow virtual mariners

Cheers

You need more RAM, and maybe better graphic. However I have more RAM, not bad graphic, FPS also not bad [outside the ports very good], but I have CTD when use this mod. Maybe this is my game version from Classic Colection.. But now I sail on the XXI.

Excellently, Aces... but there is a small addition...
... instead of the red...
It's more simple... to run editbin_SH3.bat in
the EditBin folder ...

Yes, I understand you...
I began with DOS too.
But rationalism should be on the first place...
Compare length of words folders and directories ...
