Hi

Yes. They are different:
Home PC -> Windows 10 Home x64
Office PC -> Windows 10 Pro x64

Is there a possibility to upload the working sh5.exe for the current uplay users?

Thanks in advance!

I'm not entirely sure are we allowed to do that... :hmmm: Distributing game executable is not really legal IIRC. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

Hi Vecko

Is it legal to sell a game knowingly that it is not fit for purpose?
The fact that the game can no longer be modded is not their responsibility.

The Sh5.exe is only 1 file from the game and if the file is a modified version of the Sh5.exe it might be possible, since it is not the complete game, but best to check with a competent copyright attorney to make sure. My suggestion is that people get the Steam version of the game and run the converter on it, rather than the uplay version of the game, or if they have a friend who is willing to give them a copy of their steam version of the sh5.exe file to use it and run the conversion on it. Alternatively their used to be a tutorial on here somewhere to convert the sh5.exe with a hex editor that might do the trick for those with the uplay version.

Note that Steam converter tool can be used on any version of the game. :yep:

So is it Uplay that’s added some mod protection back in to the game.?

I don't think its a mod protection thing. I think they just did something to their u play thing cause I noticed my old Watch Dogs has a new file date on it's .exe too. Maybe they changed some kind of log in protocol or something that needed
changed to work with their servers. It doesn't seem to have affected the Steam or DVD versions though. My Steam version of SH5 still works just fine with TWoS.

Anyone having these issues use there two factor account aurthentication? I know there pushing it lately

I use it, and it is a bit of a bother, the worst of it being though that I will get anywhere from 2 to 6 "authentication" codes... which leads me to believe that they have issues. I will usually have my email open when I know I'm going to play a Ubi game, since I know they'll ask me for a code. I will then use the first code they send. By the time I'm finished logging-in and going back to my email, there is always another code, with a different number, and sometimes there are several more. Makes me wonder what kind of "bouncing" the ip packets are doing when I'm sending my initial request, or do they have issues with their servers?... :salute:

don't use the two part authentication my self.

had SH5 + twos 2.2.15 ( installed when .2.2.15 released ) and just started the game and was ok.

updated too 2.2.# to 2.2.16 and the game loaded to menu ok and ( testing to see if was only with new installs of SH5 or not) showing correct versions and gives the loading bar then black screen and CTD'ed <--- guess its not....

just got the Sub Buddy attack disk installed on the ipad too :wah::wah:

Don't think so.
Product key seems to be included into sh5.exe.
Sorry!

Rgds,
Stefan
