Just to update I removed all mods so was just left with GWX and didn't load through SH3 commander and I have no deck guns or AA at all anywhere career missions, training missions etc. So somehow I've lost the files for deck guns or something like that might do a clean install. Think it might have something to do with a crash I had that froze my system I basically had to pull the plug to reboot.

If your not able to go back to an earlier save when everything was okay (which is highly doubtful), you'll probably need to reinstall the game :hmm:

1. Uninstall SH3 via Windows' "Add/Remove programs"
2. Open Windows Explorer and:
- *delete* the folder where you had installed SH3
- *delete* the \My Documents\SH3 folder
3. Reinstall SH3
4. If your SH3 did not come with patch v1.4b already included, install patch v1.4b. Ensure you install the patch that corresponds to your copy of SH3 (Download/DVD/EMEA/US)
5. OPTIONAL: Copy and paste this "clean" install as a backup to avoid the need to follow steps 1-3 if your game becomes corrupt in future
6.Download into the SAME folder GWX.exe and the five .bin files. While there grab the v1.03 patch
7. Run GWX.exe and follow the installation prompts
8. Run GWX103.exe and follow the installation prompts
9. SH3 COMMANDER USERS: Download the GWX 1.02+ Cfg files for SH3 Commander and unzip the contents DIRECTLY into your SH3 Commander\Cfg folder.

Cheers jimbuna. I hadn't thought of copying my game files as a back up don't know why not! Doh! But makes perfect sense, still plenty of room on my 200GB hard drive!
