Does it work ok with mods like GWX, and can it be run directly from Steam?

I have SHIII on Steam but should also have a CDrom somewhere in the cupboard under the stairs but really don't want to have to go in there lookin for it if I can avoid it.

Steam version works perfect with every mod, i never had any issues with it, i have some five different sh3 installs .
After you install a supermod and patch the executable you dont need Steam open to run the game .

Thank you; time to roll back the years and give SHIII another go!

After a little work I got SHIII installed. From the disc. At first it wouldn't install, and I couldn't figure out why I was having so much trouble when It worked fine the last time. Then I realized that the "gift" computer I had it on was running Windows 8. Here I was telling everybody it worked fine for me on Windows 10, and the reality was that I've never tried to install it on Win10.

I ended up installing to the much-hated X86 folder on the C Drive. That worked fine, and then I moved the whole thing to the folder I store all my games on. So far, so good.

I do hope you have the later version disk that has no StarForce.

Oh yeah. I have the second generation disc that came bundled with SH2.

Well, I spent a lot of time working on other games with problems. Then I got back to SH3 and Commander kept telling me that I already have SH3 running and I can't load Commander. After stripping out SH3 once again everything seems to be running alright.

Loading Screens mod is installed. I like the band playing a different song every time I enter port.
