Or not.
Looks like that could well be the problem

War Ships Mod? You can play the Bismarck? I did a quick search, but couldn't find it. Can you provide a link? I'd love to see this mod!

There are two versions, one for the standard SH3 1.4 and the other for the GWX 3 Mod

Installation is not for the faint hearted, if you already have GWX you use JSGME to install the GWX version, if not i don't know as i have never tried to install the standard version.

Instructions are inside, follow them to the later or they will not work, and it is slightly tricky if your a novice...

Some notes, i know in the GWX version you can not save mid game and then go back to it, the game will simply crash.
Turn realistic damage off, or you will end up with a dead ship after just a couple of hits, that's not realistic...
Once you copied the the WSM-GWX3.0 to the mods folder activate it in JSGME and then close it, now open JSGME again and you should find 3 folders,- GeI GeII and GeIII, capital ships are in GeI including Bismark, you need to select U-Boot IXD2 to get it, that's if you have enough to pay for it, if not you have to earn it or cheat.

The wide-screen Mod is advisable if your playing with something that casts a half mile shadow..

wide-screen Mod - http://www.mediafire.com/?ccngfcfb4me8y5r

GWX3 - http://www.mediafire.com/?di33mcxbbncdzpg

SH3 1.4 - http://www.mediafire.com/?dstw1dqmc823kss

Originated from - http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...157060&page=29

If you have any problems let me know, happy hunting

Your praise is much appreciated but I must point out that there have been reports of faulty download files from our website in recent months so would therefore encourage those who wish to download GWX to get said files from my FF account (link above my sig).

Thank you for the link, the referral to GWX, and especially for your kindness. I've been playing GWX3 for a while now and I fully agree with your assessment. It is a vast improvement over SH3 and makes the game an immersive and educational experience.
