Ok, you simply click/double click the 4gb_patch.exe a window similar to windows explorer will open. Now browse to your SH3.exe, now click open in the bottom of the window. Hey presto your SH3.exe is patched

Best regards.

Indeed it can Kaleun, for instance I have done the very same to ROF and Falcon 4. Not sure if it has made that much of a difference tho, they both ran smooth as silk beforehand

Best regards.

Ah, I did not know about this program!

I remember some kind of flag you could set to Windows on boot long ago under XP I think. I did not know about this being required on X64 systems.

Thanks.

Fubar2Niner ...

Not sure if I'm doin' this right and if anybody knows please feel free to chime in ...

I double click on the 4gb_patch exe and it opens up

I then select the folder where the games exe is and select it's exe
and then click open and I'm good to go

That sound like the correct procedure
