Silent Hunter 3 stuck on pause and black screen
Ahoy Captains!
so I now have putted about 63 hours into sh4 and I decided to take a break from it. So I had 5€ in my steam portfolio and eventually decided to get sh3 so I download it, boot it up and it seems to run in an odd 1024 by 768 windowed. There is no resolution option as far as I can tell so I just put it in full screen and restart the game. The sound also was muted apparently. than I try and load the navigation tutorial and when it eventually loads up the game is stuck on pause and all that I can see is a black screen with ''game paused'' and the UI i can click on whatever i whant but nothing happens thanks in advance for the replys and sorry for my mediocre english also my first post on subsim |

Looks like either a faulty download or you've installed into C:Programs (if you're running W7 or W8).

If you can't get the steam install to work, you can buy a disk version from Amazon for $10.00, and it will include SH2 as well.
