nope

Initial download seems ok, ignoring the google prompt. Then a new screen opens, allowing D/L. Clicking that, the download "begins". Estimated download time increases from 1 hour to several days, then terminates with remark "network failure" from google drive (see pic) And thats it here....

another try if possible....
Hi Niume,
Using the Mediafire turbo function it seems I downloaded the file. I missed (or was not given in turbo) the destination folder on my drive. Silly enough, I cannot find the downloaded file on my harddrive The link seems only valid for 1 download, so I would like to ask you for another try... Thanks 4 your patience, trebb.

The D/L overview worked, thanks for taking the time.
Well, it does not show up, only older D/Ls.... So maybe it did not work. Thing is, the link is dead for renewed tries...

As download of KSDII is not succesful, I bought SH4 again on Ubisoft.:
Big PITA, game does not start at all. Would not even know where to start troubleshooting. Tried to JSGME it with DW, no change. I was thinking, is there a SH4 exe file that allows me to circumnavigate the Ubi startup and login menu? kind of a jailbreak... Cheers, trebb.

?? - your post above seems to have that, but with a "Connect more apps" button also, so you're probably logged into Google??. But click on the "Download" link, and you'll get another Google page, but that's mostly white, and will have messaging to the effect of "Google Drive can't scan this file for viruses. KSDII_Ace_Edition.zip (7.3G) is too large for Google to scan for viruses. Would you still like to download this file?" Click on the "Download anyway" button on that page, but you want your browser to "Save As..." if you can. There is an exe file in the zip file, and Windows Defender will see that as a "threat" and will 'kill' the download when it "sees" that in the file, which could well be right when you are describing the download stopping. You should see a message in the Notifications area in the lower right of the systray of Win10 or 11. You will have to figure out a way to get Windows Defender not to kill your download. There are too many browsers, and too many computer set-ups to be able to speak to any one method. You could refer to the Finding the installation location for your Ubisoft game to find your game folder. As to the SH4 not running on your computer, it is a Windows XP app, and as such is ignorant of the "modern" Windows OS, from Vista onward. The modern Windows does not want to run "legacy" stuff, so you have to tell the two how to get along. You will have to navigate into the game folder and do the set-up yourself. You most likely have the game in the "default" installation folder, which is most likely "C:\Program Files (x86) \Ubisoft \Ubisoft Game Launcher \Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific". In that folder (or something similar) you should find the "SH4.exe", unless you have the file extensions turned off, and then you'll two files named "SH4". The first one is "SH4.exe", and the second is "SH4.ico". They both will have the submarine and "SH4" logo for their icons, but listed alphabetically, you would click on the first one. Right-click on the file and you will get a context menu with "Properties" at the bottom. Left-click on Properties, and you should get a small "Propterties" window open. In that window, click on the "Compatibility" tab. That is the Win11 Properties windows after the "Change high DPI settings" button is clicked. Win10 looks similar, but with "squarer" corners on the boxes and windows. Anyway, On the actual Properties windows, you will want to click on the "Disable fullscreen optimizations" at a minimum. You will most likely have to click on the "Change high DPI settings" button, and that opens the upper window in that pic, where you then tick the "Override high DPI scaling behavior..." button, and set the drop-down below it to "Application". Some folks have to also set the "Compatibility mode" setting to Windows 7 or XP. Other have to set the "Run the program as an administrator" also - experimentation is in your future... Or just set them all and be done with it. I have a laptop that has to have the upper "Program DPI" box set as in the pic, but most computers do not. That would only apply on a computer where you have a global scaling setting in Windows. If you do, then that tick box is the way to turn it off only for the SH4 app. 95% of users wouldn't need to touch that. Get the Stock game, without any mods running correctly first. Then you will want to copy that Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific folder, and paste the whole shebang into a new folder you create yourself off the Root of your drive, such that you are NOT in a Program Files folder.. You can keep the copy in the Ubisoft folder as a "backup" then, and use it whenever you want to run the Stock game. I have my Ubisoft copy in "C:\Games \Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific". You then most likely will want to use MultiSH4 v1.5 to create a unique 3-character Save folder for that copied game for your modding purposes. Now we're starting to get into the deep water though... get the Stock game running first, then copy it to a folder outside of Program Files and go from there. |
