One thing you mention that is intriguing is that things "change" as you are attempting to play the game. This brings up a couple of questions, the main one being "Where is your game installed?"

The game's installer defaults to a "C:\Program Files..." folder path, no matter if you have a disk version, Amazon or Steam download, or whatever. If you are installed there, a lot of mods will not function there, because Windows prevents any changes made "keeping". You will need to change or move the installed path to a folder of your own naming. This also brings a 2nd question: "What game do you have, Steam, Amazon, or disk, etc.?" A Steam game is more difficult to move - er, rather, more time-consuming, not difficult...

It would also be helpful to mention some of your computer hardware, such a computer model or the cpu, the amount of RAM, your video card, the OS you are using and its bit-depth (32 or 64-bit), if known.
nerdy stuff below
video card:
AMD Radeon(TM) R4 Graphics with 2.0 GB VRAM
CPU:
AMD A6-9220 RADEON R4, 5 COMPUTE CORES 2C+3G @2.9 gHZ
Ram:
8.0 GB
not sure if that's entirely what you need as i'm no computer genius but hopefully that's what you're looking for
i do also understand that my computer is dodgy as all hell (the downfall to being a pleb "what we call poor people around my area")
i plan on getting a much more passable computer at a later date when the moola starts entering my bank.
anyways my body requests sleep so i'll be heading off to bed, i'll try fix sh3 to work right after i take a few days to clear my head in the mean time i'd appreciate more pointers for when i get to fixing it and preferably as simple as you can describe it for computer the noob that is me catch ya later kaleun! :kaleun_Salute:
