when at Mad Mardigan I never understand any of his gibberish.
it comes from the fact that you have installed the game or it was not necessary it is because of game explorer which sends rockets to the server ...

Ahoy, Kal_Maximus_U669...

The main gist of what I said was this...

If you have access to obtaining SH3, from Ubisoft themselves, dirrectly...
upon opening up the SH3 install folder, will then see that there are 2 icons marked as ''SH3''... 1 of these is the actual .exe needed to be used to run SH3... & the other is NOT... the .exe that is used to run SH3, has an addition to it that the copy obtained from ''Steam'' does NOT have added to the actual, useable .exe to run SH3... namely with the Ubisoft .exe version of the inclusion of _F or _g at the end so it ends up looking as follows:

SH3.exe_f or SH3.exe_g

Steam, is just plain out:

SH3.exe (provided you have files set up to show their entire hidden attributes... which I did, at 1 time, but set it up to do away with that... just the way I like doing it...

Hope this helps you to better understand what I was getting at now....
