CTD on Navigation exam
Hi: I'm not new to the game but just realized I lost my SH3 disc...so I bought the download from Steam. My problem is, I am trying to complete the Navigation exam...everytime I get to the point where I have completed all the objectives and I'm waiting for the last radio message...the game crashes to desktop and my computer turns off...when I restart I do not get any error messages re: overheating or anything...just restarts normally.
I realize this is an Old game and have been searching thru CTD posts but they all deal with crashes due to adding mods. I haven't added any mods...this is the base SH3 version. Any thoughts would be appreciated b4 I ask for a Steam refund. Thanks!

I don't know about the Steam version of SH3, but I sure know that you must have the latest patched version 1.4b without Starforce. Check if that's the case.
All details are in the stickies. Then I highly recommend that you install one of the megamods for SH3 because the vanilla game besides of having no widescreen support is way less interesting. |

found it!
Thanks to you guys for the help...but I realized after searching thru my directory...that I have SH3 and 4...on my "C" drive...The Steam version was under the Program files (x86)...after creating the 2 EXE file shortcuts to my desktop ..I deleted the Steam file. Cost me $9.99 (which they won"t refund) but that's OK. I have my games back!
