with my new system i can load SH3 in under two minutes and be out sailing. with SH5 as it is its crash and recover crash and recover. i have followed tutorials to the letter and still it does not function as described - maybe its just me?

I'm not sure what would be causing that. I have a six year old single-core system that doesn't even meet the minimum requirements, yet it loads and runs SH5. It has problems, as I described in my own thread, but it has not crashed once. I agree that a decent supermod would be nice, but even with one people are always creating new mods to add to it. In SH3 I use a supermod, but my additional mods list is huge.

Other people have made it work and are having a good time, so all I can suggest is to hang in and keep trying until it works for you.
