The following post will hopefully give some insight into an installation from Steam concerning the Program Files issues:

Secondly, the stuck on pause issue is generally caused by a corrupted main.cfg file located in the Documents/SH3 folder, specifically regarding the time compression settings. See here for more info and the solution:

Good luck,

Thanks to all. The problem was on me. I was downloading the sim, and before starting, I used the 4Gb patch. I guess the sim didn't like that. I waited until after I installed my mods to use the 4Gb. Works like it's supposed to.
Again, my thanks.

Your running WAC 5.2 ?

Yes.

Something else I found out about starting a new install and having it show 'game paused'. Look in your C:\Documents\SH3\Data\Config\main.cfg.
If this is missing, copy and paste the following:

[TIME COMPRESSION]
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=128
CriticalDamage=1
CrewEfficiency=1
AirEnemyDetected=1
SoundEffects=2
CharacterAnim=4
EnemyDetected=8
RadioReport=8
Particles=32
PrayState=8
HunterState=32
3DRender=32
Maximum=1024

Good Hunting.
