Being a total Luddite when it comes to computers, I was very pleased with myself as I finally managed to install this mod on a freshly bought Steam version of SH5........BUT...........The Steam purchase came with a product/game code, which I wrote down carefully.....

Now, I seem to have the mod installed correctly but it's asking for my access code. When I enter the one I got with the original download (and it's correct, I didn't make a mistake in writing it down or entering it) I just get an error message, telling me the code is wrong....So close to getting up and running. Can anyone help/advise, please.?

Hi Anita1986,
No, it is not normal. Do you use administrator user account on your PC? If not, log in as an administrator and try to reinstall the game again.

Thanks for your reply. I found out what it was, I needed to actually start the newly installed game before I patched the game

But okay, I have installed everything according to the manual but I can't seem to start the game. I open the game from my Silent Hunter 5 shortcut and Silent Hunter 5 starts to load but then Uplay opens and I get to a Silent Hunter 5 screen where the only button I can press is "Update" When I press Silent Hunter 5 starts to load again but seconds later, the load picture disappears and nothing happens.

And if I try to start the game from the KSD Commander screen, the game is just loading and loading without getting anywhere. If I close the Silent Hunter 5 loading window, I just get returned here.



What am I doing wrong?

Haha, thanks! I suddenly decided to download Silent Hunter 5 again and I remembered that there were some very good mods for it on subsim so I decided to see if there had been any updates.

Sadly, the game doesn't want to start for me, even without the mod installed. I don't know what I'm doing wrong so I uninstalled it again. Hopefully, it will work in 8 years again lol.

It seems that many perfectly functional mods no longer work with 2.2 (I just downloaded and installed it)


Have re-enabled those mods AFTER copying them to the TWoS_Parts folder and performing the upgrade, but they are taking no effect at all, even in a new campaign.


I know they're probably not the mods most are interested in, but I'm after a bit of fun, not uber-reality


Mods used: Critical Hits 1.1 torpedoes, 88mm Railgun


Any (non-judgemental and helpful) thoughts?


Thanks

Default Issues.

I installed WoS mod.
I followed the instructions.
I run SH5.exe as admin
I get this USER CHARTS box.
I can move it around but its blank, its annoying and its empty.
Im fairly sure it shouldnt be like that.


Im pretty sure its a problem with the NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2_TheDarkWraith mod as I have a seperate SH5 install with just that mod and it does the same thing
I get the same issue with NewUIs_TDC_7_5_0_TheDarkWraith too.


My PC is more than capable of running this.
Direct X is up to date.

Hi Northius,

Really quite strange. Do you have any other mods installed over TWoS?
I noticed that most of the other standalone mods are not compatible with TWoS 2.2, causing problems with gameplay (and even with in-game sound)...
