Only if yours is dirty!:rotfl:

1.03 will be applied in exactly the same way as 1.02.

Please do not quote me on this as I am not 100% sure, but I don't think it is possible. If I remember correctly as soon as you dock to a base a new patrol must start, and this is part of the code that the Modders cannot touch

No - SH3 limitation. Use SH3Cmdr to get around this.

And can be applied over any previous release of GWX.

I'm trying to get GWX 1.02 patch installed. I already have the dec 23rd patch installed.

When I try and install it I get a message that there are programs that need to be uninstalled. The only thing I have is the patch. If I roll it back I get a message saying that there are some files missing from the SHIII folder that can't be found. This was a new install of SHIII with GWX. No other mod or patches other the the first update.

IS there a work around??? or am I missing something.

Delete any/all SH3 files from C\MyDocuments
Install a clean version of SH3 in C\Program Files\Ubisoft\SH3
Patch it to 1.4b
Copy the folder and paste it to whatever drive you want.
Rename the folder ‘GWX’.
Now install GWX
Now install GWX (v1.0 whatever)
Create a shortcut to the desktop..
Install the SH3Cmd 2.7 plus the SH3Cfg file
If your going to use multiple installs I’d suggest a separate install of SH3Cmdr for each plus an install of MultiSH3.

GWX Patch 1.02 must be installed over a copy of Silent Hunter III containing GWX (with or without existing hotfixes). As this is a requirement for the patch to work, the installer will not allow installation to any other location.
Before installing:

- DISABLE all activated modifications if you use the "Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler" (JSGME). You cannot use JSGME to install GWX Patch 1.02, but you can use JSGME to activate other modifications after GWX Patch 1.02 is installed.

- REMOVE any installed SH3 Commander files (if you use "SH3 Commander") by pressing the "Rollback SH3" button from within SH3 Commander.

- ENSURE your active careers are all safely docked in port!

It is important that you follow these steps as the installer will look for SH3 Commander and JSGME files and will halt if any are found. Likewise the installer will halt if it does not find certain key GWX files.

After installing:

GWX Patch 1.02 includes all individual GWX fixes released to date. You do not need to re-install any previous GWX patch or hotfix after patch 1.02. Indeed, this patch will delete from JSGME any previous patches or hotfixes that it finds.
