Scapa Flow

Hey Guys,

At the risk of incurring a few guffaws, how do you run Prien's historic route into Scapa Flow with stock SH3? Lamb's Holm and Glimp's Holm are islands with block ships parked there. But in the stock simulation they are part of a really scewed peninsula. What gives? Couldn't really find the answer in any other threads.

With stock? You don't. GWX has the area properly modeled, or at least as properly as the game will allow. Stock SH3 is something to be avoided if at all possible.

Gotcha. I will be checking out GWX before too long.

Thanks Steve

So I've heard. I just hope my hardware is up to the task.

GWX was designed to use no more resources than the stock game. My nine-year-old single-core dinosaur runs it just fine. It runs well even with a lot of add-on mods. The only thing it can't handle is the Merchant Fleet Mod and Flackmonkey's New Interiors.

Duly noted.

Danke schön!

Hey Guys,

I just installed GWX and it is working fine.
Question: Is there any way at all I can move my saved career from SH3 into GWX?
