Are you using an old original SH3 or a new one? The new ones come already patched, and adding the patch again just screws it up.

By the way, when I said I was right there with you I meant in age. I'd say you have a little over a year on me.

II figured you meant age. By the way I noticed your Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club emblem. I spent my time there. Yankee Station, PIRAZ. On the USS Long Beach CGN-9.

No I have the orginal boxed version from 2005. I just installed it last night on this pc.

Awesome! USS Brinkley Bass (DD-887). Junior apprentice radioman.

And hmm. I don't know what the problem would be then. Is it the right patch (the US DVD version)? That does make a difference. Also sometimes removing and reinstalling the game will make it work. I don't like to remember how many times I've done that.

Radionman 2nd Class. 1969-1973. Small world.

I will try to unistall and reinstall. If a miracle happens and I get it patched and GWX-3 in place I would like to talk to you about any additions you use to GWX-3 to make it more entertaining. I did check and it shows I am using the US version for DVD not downloads.

Hi Yolo911:

After you get GWX3.0 up and running, you will notice that JSGME (JScones Generic Mod Enabler) is also installed. This is a great utility that allows you to easily and painlessly switch on several mods as per your likening. It looks like this:



As you can see, I use the 'Open Hatches' mod, the 'Damage' mod and the 'Lifeboats & Debris' mod - a great set of initial mods to turn on as a start. Here is a screenshot of both the 'Damage' and the 'Lifeboats & Debris' mod in action

Great! Glad to be of service

Once you have got used to GWX3, try some of the excellent MODS avialable for that - you will love it
