if you been running GW 1.1a you should be able to run GWX.

If you have just been running SHIII with no mods: GWX will make it run a little slower. If you have fair frame rates RUN GWX you won't regret it.


Hope this helps

Well i'm running 1.4b, and the frame rates are usually pretty good, there is a noticable slowdown when I come close to a convoy, but its not too bad.

Hello there, mate. Adding RAM is always a good thing, its not like you are going to regret it anyway. 1GB is enough, although 2GB is more than sweet.

Your graphics card is a bit on the slow side, but it should run the mod just fine.

SH3, GW and GWX need a lot of RAM and quick CPU. I have 512MB of RAM and a 3.3GHz CPU and the game runs fine. Obviously the more RAM the better, but you can always compromise a bit if you have a good CPU. As far as the graphics card you have no problems as well. Mine is a 128MB moderate one and I see no problems in the game

I have 512 too and GwX runs well , despite long loading times, and a bit of stutter in the first moments when load textures.

curiosly, academy missions loads faster than single missions and campaign, so is a good place to test things.

One question .. Sh3 load all campaign files and units in single missions ??:hmm:
