Quick question...

I own SH3 on steam and installed GWX3 onto it. It works. But on my first career starting in med 1942, my game froze just when I started moving to leave port.

Unfortunate CTD or is the Steam version different from the normal one thus requiring me to find a non steam copy?

Many run Steam Versions with no problems.
List your system specs and mods.

Vanilla, with just gwx. Im running a laptop - win7 home 64bit, amd Athlon II p340 2.2 ghz, 4gb ram, ATI Mobility radeon 5470 512mb!

Im gonna try again to see if it was simply a random crash...

You should be able to run SH3 and GWX with no problems.
That's a better system then I and many had during development of GWX 3!

Have you patched the SH3 exe to use more then 2 gigs?
I would recommend you do that with your system.

As Privateer states...it should run no problem

You need to replace the bearing2.tga in GWX with the one from unmodified SHIII.

Hello

I am pretty new here....used to play SH4 but couldnt get into it....now i got my hands on SH3 and just downloaded this great mod and now I am having some questions:

1. I just started a carrer and on my first patrol I am constantly getting radio messages in French....is this a mistake or am I missing something?

2. When I get a ship spoted on the map they are all the same color (black). If i remember correctly in SH4 the enemy ships would show red, while my would be black or blue (cant remember). Does this mean that I have to approach every ship and look at his flag to know if its the enemy? I know it makes sense IRL, but dont know if that is how it works here.

Pretty sure I had more questions, but cant remember them now........will come back later?

Did you enable the "fix French" mod that comes as an option with GWX? If you are not playing the game in French, but in German or English, you don't need that option. When you end your patrol you should disable it.

GWX disables the friendly/enemy/neutral color coding for contacts, so yeah... that's how it works. You will have to visually ID them by their flags, appearance, and/or behavior.

Or you can use the Contact Color mod, which will replace the color coding (and the navigational tails) on your map. Go to the Downloads section here and search for it by name - you should find it there.

Here is the contact colour mod
