Help! with installing GWX 3.0

cristo · 02-22-11, 08:26 PM

Well, I've done a clean reinstall, and deleted those folders, but still get the "modded files" error.

ARRRRRGH!!! There are no modded files!

How do I do a registry clean? (Win7/64)

Steam places the SH3 files in a different directory, usually under Steam/steamapps/common or the like.

Make sure you are pointing the GWX installer at the right file.

That seemed to do the trick!

So obvious now...duh!

Thanks, now I can get on with the battle.

Why not use one of the 4 patches provided by SubSim Downloads ?

One of the 4 patches will work with your SH3 Ver. Unless it's already PrePatched.
