Steam and GWX

Calvin809 · 03-15-20, 10:42 AM

I had to use the patcher in the Silent Hunter 4 Fall of the Rising Sun mod to apply the 4GB patch to the steam version. It's the large address aware exe in that mod. The one that comes with GWX doest seem to let you select a file path. This worked for me. It otherwise crashed. I have the Steam version running with GWX and other mods.

I was experiencing random crashes as well until I installed the 4 Gig Patch. If you have not already, I would highly suggest trying that as a solution.

Hi Calvin809,
For clarity, GWX does not include a large address aware patch.
It does indeed need to be patched with one though.

Well that would explain why what I thought was one didn't work.
