You should never run anything in a compatibility mode.

I've just done a fresh install of SH3. I backed up the game incase.

I downloaded and run the 4gb patch.

Installed GWX, looks like its running.

** SH3 runs fine, making sure to do the first mission as default, otherwise the game will crash. Other than that working, thank you.

You may need to do this as well https://steamcommunity.com/app/15210...3594739326655/

Substantiate. Why? On Win7 SH3 it was not started without a mode compatibility!

I run GWX on my Win10 machine in Win XP Compatibility mode and it runs just fine. Instead of the 4Gb patch, I use the Large Address Aware (LAA) utility. Does the same thing as the 4Gb patch, but with no confusion over versions, etc. I believe you can find LAA in the Subsim Download section. Good luck and good hunting!

Hello Folks,

i've been here since yesterday.
I've been playing Silent Hunter III since it came out. I have several installations with CCoM 12.0, LSH3 V15, WAC 5.2 and now GWX 3.0
Now I'm looking for mods for GWX and I've already found some.

1. Due to Windows 10 being so much more proprietary you should never, ever install any games on your 'C' drive, or whatever drive Win10 is installed on. I even went so far as to purchase a new disc just for my games.

2. The 4-Gig Patch (or Large Address Aware) is a must if you're loading any large mods at all. It's a good idea even if you run the game with no mods. I tried to run Iambecomelife's Merchant Fleet Mod for years and it always crashed. Simply applying the 4-Gig Patch fixed it right up.

3. I too run the Compatibility Mode set for Windows 7. It enabled me to play a couple of mods that formerly wouldn't work, and I've never had a single problem.

Windows 10.... pig with lipstick and bane of SH3 players everywhere.

Sailor Steve · 02-04-20, 07:26 PM

I currently run Windows 10 and have no problems whatever with any Silent Hunter version starting with SH3.

Krauter · 02-04-20, 10:08 PM

Bought SH3 on Steam and run it on a Windows 10 platform and zero issues minus having to run it in windowed since the resolution is a bit off otherwise.
