Getting it running win10

[dasebastian]

Bought it and installed it on my new laptop, which runs with win10.

The game starts, see the intro, then screen turns black and freezes. I see the mouse but nothing else. Could not even get to the task manager.

I tried to set the resolution down to 1024x... this did not change anything.

Is there a way to get this game running clean under win10?

Thx!

get the 4G patch http://www.ntcore.com/4gb_patch.php (if modding) run in compatability mode for Win XP SP2,i'm running W10 64 Pro and it runs fine

get the windows 10 anniversary update.

then open intel graphics settings > display > general settings > scaling > set it to "scale full screen" & check the "override application settings". apply.

thats what i had to do on my laptop. running vanilla sh3 windows x.

SOLUTION:

1. Navigate to the Silent Hunter 3 folder (Default is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Silent Hunter 3).

2. Scroll down to sh3.exe, right-click on it, and click Properties.

3. In the window that pops up, click on the Compatibility tab near the top.

4. In the Compatibility mode section, make sure that the checkbox for "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP (SP2)" is checked.

5. In the Settings section, make sure that the checkbox for "Override high DPI scaling behavior. Scaling performed by: Application" is checked.

6. Click Apply, close all windows and run the game.
