Have the six pack, while re-installing. Only confusing thing for me was getting my MODs back installed because I misplaced the GWX bins.

The only recent change was adding SH4 effects for SH3, but that was 2 patrols ago before this occured.
Not using SH3 Multi, but as it is looking like a reinstall is nessesary I have been meaning to try that to run different Mods.

Fried something no doubt, like getting a flat tire. Why did that happen - dunno it just did.

Difference is that it's usually lashing down with rain/sleet/snow when you get a flat tire and you've misplaced your tire/jack/car whereas with this, at least you have a six-pack to content yourself with whilst re-installing

It sounds like you have added something the programme doesn't like. This usually happens with Commander when people reinstall a career file.
If taking the game back to a previous workable save is not possible, I'd suggest a full reinstall

1. Uninstall SH3 via Windows' "Add/Remove programs"
2. Open Windows Explorer and:
- *delete* the folder where you had installed SH3
- *delete* the \My Documents\SH3 folder
3. Reinstall SH3
4. If your SH3 did not come with patch v1.4b already included, install patch v1.4b. Ensure you install the patch that corresponds to your copy of SH3 (Download/DVD/EMEA/US)
5. OPTIONAL: Copy and paste this "clean" install as a backup to avoid the need to follow steps 1-3 if your game becomes corrupt in future
6.Download into the SAME folder GWX.exe and the five .bin files. While there grab the v1.03 patch
7. Run GWX.exe and follow the installation prompts
8. Run GWX103.exe and follow the installation prompts
9. SH3 COMMANDER USERS: Download the GWX 1.02+ Cfg files for SH3 Commander and unzip the contents DIRECTLY into your SH3 Commander\Cfg folder.

Only one sixpack? This game reinstalling stuff deserves more.
