Hi out there

I also am not sure what you did. What I did was to make a fresh install of silent hunter3, patch it to 1.4b and copy the folder ShilentHunterIII, then rename the SilentHunterIII folder to GreyWolves. I then renamed the copy to NYGM Tonnage War 2.
If you have previously installed Silent Hunter III, you need to rename the file SH3 in your documents folder to something else first.
I also make a copy of the SilentHunterIII folder on a dvd.
I then rename the Grey wolves folder SilentHunterIII and install GreyWolves 1.1a; rename the folder to GreyWolves.
Then do the same with the NYGM.
If you use SH3CMDR you can then choose either one, but you MUST rollback CMDR before you switch between the two.
You can use the same procedure if you want an unmodelled (vanilla) SHIII, or any other modelled version
There probably is an easier way to do this, but this works for me.
