Hi,
I wanted to start a new campaign with WAC 4.1. I installed SH3 , added the Patch 1.4 then i installed WAC 4.1 and the fix. So far so good. As i tried to start my first Patrol he loaded until 92% then it took forever and then i became a CTD with everyones favourite message "SH3 has encountered a problem and needs to close". So i though maybe the game is messed up, i tried the training missions whcih worked fine. I have an AMD Athlox 64 X2 Dualcore 6000+ and an ATI Raedon HD 5700 Series. Anyone else had or has this problem?

Also, get used to it taking forever, that's normal for WAC because of it's enormous size. It normally takes me about 20 minutes to load up a patrol compared to the 3 minutes vanilla. I normally go and make a pot of coffee or take a shower while booting up. If you need further assistance, let us know. Last edited by Tuddley3; 10-10-11 at 04:10 PM. |

Be sure to backup your boot.ini and place your backup in another folder somewhere. Once you are done and reboot, you will notice a new screen during startup. use your arrow keys to select the new operating system boot option. (Don't blink, you have 3 seconds to respond, of which you can change if you like by changing the Timeout number to whatever you like, or simply put the new entry in front of the stock entry and it will open with the 3GB Switch automatically after the timer runs out. If you mess up somehow, you can reboot in Safe Mode and replace the .ini file with your backup and reboot. Report back to us and we'll correct your error. You can download the 4GB Patch right here http://ntcore.com/4gb_patch.php It all sounds overwhelming, but it's very simple. If you have anymore problems let me know. |

Oops, I noticed when I replied the first time my Wi-Fi cut out on me and my post was posted prematurely. I'm not sure if you caught my statement about loading times...

I had the same issue, now playing WAC without the fix. Try not to install the fix because it worked for me. |

I myself am not sure exactly what the WAC 4.1 Fix corrected, but it probably fixed some CTD problems as much of Hansolo's fixes have in the past. So maby for you the Fix and the 4GB Patch will be all you need. |

The Fix corrections are in the readme file, it´s nothing of big porportion.
I use the realism patch made by h.sie. It already patches your exec file to 4gb. Runs stable but still I get problems when reloading saved games. I mean, CTD's and an old problem I have with dials... all dials positioned at 12h |

Hi,
just a question. Is the SLS Shiphorn-Starshell-Distress Flare Mod which comes with LSH 5.1 compatible to WAC 4.1? |

Ok, Thanks.
I was asking because of the sink time. Is there a Mod thats compatble with WAC 4.1 that increases the sink time? |

@Magic. I see in your mod list that you have extended challenge loaded. Is this the same one as in LSH3, or has it been modified? Regards.
