Well in order to install GWX you will need a full version of SH3 installed on the computer. I know it probably doesnt help but nowdays the price of SH3 is fairly low...

You need to have SH III intalled and patched to version 1.4...the you download GWX from here:

Then you are set to go; I don't know where you live, but here in Europe the game can be obtained for about € 6,-.....which is $ 8.08. Without SH3, no GWX!

And last but not least: welcome

Its also possible to buy SH3 online too as a download, or it can be obtained cheaply enough as a disc like the guys have said.

I think the guy has SHIII on HIS computer, but he can only access the internet via his friend's PC.

Blank CDs are quite cheap, havent bought any for awhile, so cant really tell how the prices are today.

Here's how you get GWX (that is, if I was right about the PC thing ), first you ask your friend to download & burn the needed files (check the link ReM posted), use a clean unmodded installation of SHIII and patch it to 1.4b and finally install the GWX + the needed updates to bring it up to date.

Welcome!
