If memory serves Me rightly... those come prepackaged in with the GWX3 installer... just run that on a freshly installed copy of SH3.

Ensure that you do NOT have that copy of SH3 installed in either of Windows "program" folders... Before running the installer.. right click, go to properties, In the main tab when that menu pops up... make sure that write only, is uncheck marked, click apply, then go into compatibility tab, & select "run as Admin & click "Apply". Then run the GWX3 installer, after running the GWX3 installer & allowing it to finish doing what it needs to, open the main folder of SH3 that you pointed the installer to, & check the "MODS" folder... they should all be there, that you need for it.

If you use SH3 Commander with it... think I recall there being an additional file needed for it to work properly, when you use it to start with it.

If you have more than 1 copy of SH3 installed... & modded out, make sure to use MultiSH3, to keep the game save folders, separate.

Patch the SH3.exe with either 4GB patch kit... or use Large Address Aware (which can be googled for & I recommend its use, as it is a simple 3 step process to assign the .exe 4GB's of RAM to be used by your computer with SH3...)

After all that, should then activate the mods you want/need to use... which with a late war career start, am thinking you'll need to use the late war sensors & the other late war mod along with that... snorkel mod...

Any way, if I missed anything am sure 1 of the others can fill in where I did... but, I think that's about it...

Hope this info helps...
