Is it fine to run the exe from the downloads folder or should I throw everything into a folder in like the sh3 data folder or something.

I have played GW mod years ago and loved it so I just want to get it on here to enjoy.

Thanks,

Comprehensive installation instructions are available from the GWX website (click on my sig).

Privateer has pretty much answered your query though

When on patrol and night falls it's all black! I mean really black, i don't see a thing not even stars or the moon. I can't stalk ships or do nothing because i can't even identify the ship nor see it even when i'm right beside it. In fact i can't even see the crew on bridge.

Is this normal or it's a graphic problem coming from my computer?

Thank you very much for the response.

That is because of the OLC environmental mod we incorporated into GWX.

IMHO this excellent piece of work from OLC make the nights even more realistic.

Newbie here with a question about resupplying in GWX3.0.

Halfway to my patrol grid I came across a convoy of 12 ships. Sank em all cept 1 (is it me or are the tramp steamers thick skinned sob's). Used up all my torps and spent the rest of the day plinking the rest off with my flak guns. So I haven't even reached my patrol area and I'm down to using spitballs for ammo so I decide to try to resupply. Found a supply ship off the coast of spain and did as the manual said, exited my mission and docked at port. All restocked, I was looking forward to continuing my patrol but my patrol ended. When I put back out to sea my orders were blank and my patrol grid location was listed as "null".

So resuplying supposed to end your patrol or am I doing something wrong? The patrol ended as if I did complete the mission, didn't notice any penalties but I still would have liked to have finished my patrol.

Thanks

You don't get renown for reaching your patrol grid, so it doesn't matter. Supply ships and U-tankers need to end a "patrol" to do their job, can't change that. You can continue to your old patrol grid if you want, but since you didn't need to reach it in the first place, it's alright.

Thanks for the help...going through with the other download was the ticket, also had to start a new career but I am just tickled pink to play the mod.

Hat off to GWX modders.

Welcome and enjoy the GWXperience MerchantMarine1982

Very nice, as always. I'm still in the middle of a long campaign, might have to finish it first and then try this. Thank you all anyway!

Thanks for the info. And Thanks to the grey wolf team for producing such a great product. You don't see this level of quality and detail from the "professionals".

Can't wait to see what they do with SH4. I bought it but only played a bit before going back to SH3. It was just too "unlike" SH3. I liked the improved graphics but the interface was just not enjoyable for me.

I would love to see a japanese mod for the game. Just imaging playing in the I-400 class subs. Biggest sub of the war as far as I know, flyable fighters and the best torpedo's of the war. Don't know if it can be done but it would be real cool

Shouldn't the first post be updated?
The files for SH3Cmdr have been released.

[tomfon]

A simple yes or no will do.

Is it possible to install GWX 3.0 and retain the normal night environmental settings by removing the OLC files relating to that aspect? i need to see at night, i understand some ppl like that dark dark but for me,i need stars and the moon and other night features...just wondered. thanks

I searched for a bug-thread, but found none, because of that I ask for help here:
I reinstalled SH3 1.4b, deleted SH3 folder in MyDocs folder, got GMX3.0 mod, installed that, launched and saw just kinda movie (I mean logo etc.), then the game always crushes to desktop showing a typical error "thare was an error, the application will be closed blah-blah-blah"

what may it be?
SH3 1.4b works fine
