Nerazzurri, an important piece of advice....

Do Not install, or uninstall, any mods while at sea. Only install them while you are in port between patrols.

Get and use JSGME for your mod installs. SH3 Commander 2.7 is also a very good thing to have and use.

And to keep you mods safe, burn them to a DVD or put them on a separate HDD used only for storage.

And last but most important... get GWX. You'll be glad you did even if you have to wait to use it once you can upgrade your system.

Thanks for your advice everybody, I can't wait to get started later today.

Just one more thing; when I start SH3, what should be the intro movie is pink and green horizontal lines

Solved the problem when I remembered reading on here just to remove the intro file from the hard drive.

But I'd like to know if this is a common problem and if it affects any other movies in the game, or just 'as it says on the tin', the intro?

The intro should be clear without any lines or "bad graphics". In any case you can run the game by deleting the videos. Other than that you should have no problems with the game, as there are no other "movies" into it.

No, not a common problem, but a sure hint your graphics card is struggling :hmm:

On a different note, do you think that my system is adequate for running GWX or should I consider another mod like NYGM?

Pentium 4, 1GB RAM, 2.8GHZ, NVidia Geforce 6200

Give it a go....suck it and see

If you have a graphics/fps issue whilst in port, enable the 'Lite Harbour Traffic' mod

With regard to the Intro file - both the Logo and Mission movie files, when I double click them in the folder, they open in Media Player and play fine. Anyone know why they don't run for me when starting the game by shortcut?

I realise it's not necessary for gameplay, it's just annoying! LOL
