The GWX v3 mod is working fine just by reducing the resolution from 1680x1050, thank you

1680x1050
1280x1024
1152x864
1024x768
800x600
If your graphics card has it included... should be able to go into it's control panel & set up a custom rez size... say... 1920x1080 (I think's 1 of the larger sized rez options for ws mods... ) or... 1360x768 or was that 1366x786.... 1 or the other of them.

My screen is 16x9... & that 1920 or 1980 WS mode...was kaputsky... meaning for Me... it wouldn't work & when I went to do the initial set up a bit back... I also got that bloody "can't initialize 3D engine garbage.

After I popped in the MaGui 13X7 WS mod in... the whole set up, ran like a champ, after that...

Main point is... to get set up to begin with... resize your screen... to 1920.. 1980, whatever that size is again... then run set up from there. Once done, can always reset the rez for the monitor back to native & use that MaGui WS 13x7... that worked the way I outlined here... for Me.

Hope that helps.. & I didn't leave ya scratching your head, going "sayyyy whaaa...???"
