@ Reese - You seem to have done everything correctly, but one more try with a few things. Select the SH4.exe file, right-click on it, and choose "Properties" from that menu. Choose the "Details" pane, be certain the "Product Version:" about the middle of the page has "1.5.0.0" or "1,5,0,0" depending upon your country install. If that's good, click on the "Compatibility" tab, and set the "Disable full-screen optimizations" such that there is a checkmark in the tick box. Then click on the "Change high DPI settings" button. On that new window, click on the "Override high DPI scaling behavior..." tick box in the bottom section, to put a checkmark in it, and then choose "Application" in the drop-down box, if it isn't already chosen. Back to the first "General" tab, and be certain that the "Read-only" tick box is clear - no checkmark. OK out of that If the Read-only was indeed set, run the LAA or 4Gig Patch once again. Neither will display an error when it fails to take. The only way to check is to run the applet again.

Another to check is to have Windows display set to the display monitor's "(recommended)" resolution. Inside SH4 game, Options menu, Display Settings, use the drop-down box to choose that same resolution (if available) in the game's drop-down box for that. Set the other settings the way you want. Exit the game. Now re-start the game and try to go into the 3D portion of a mission or career and see what it does.

If it still fails, post back with some of your computer specs, such as cpu, amount of RAM, hard drives and the OS, and whether 32 or 64 bit. You could also run JSGME again, and choose "Tasks..." in the middle, then "Export activated mods list to -->" and then "Clipboard". You can then paste the clipboard contents into your next post with "Ctrl-V" key combination. One last question: when you start the modded game, are you getting a logo like below in my signature to the left?
