The problem persists, and now I am noticing I am now getting black BDU messages when I boot SH3 and not SH3 cmdr.

I can't seem to figure out these black messages. I followed the appending instructions to a T, and i just can't get this to work!

Uninstalled CMDR and reinstalled the patches. BDU messages come in now, but when I tried to install commander again, and then put in the GWX patch, booted it up and BOOM, no BDU messages.

I reverted back to no CMDR, and BDU messages come back.

I can't figure out why SH3 CMDR is doing this to my game, makes no sense. I have all the proper patches installed, everything works great until I try and introduce SH3 CMDR. it seems to overwrite all my files or something.

Any ideas?

Fixed the SH3 commander issue, I have no idea how.

I just kept reinstalling it and testing it and eventually it worked. No idea what I did or why it fixed itself. Th eonly thing I can think that I changed was I changed the sh3.exe and the sh3cmdr.exe file to run in the same "windows xp service pack" mode to be the same ones and now it's working. Not sure if that fixed it or not.
