Where to Locate SH 4 Version #?

[USS CUTTHROAT SS-365]

Howdy!

I purchased SH 4 from Amazon as a Download; is there a way to find out which Version I own?

Thanks!

v1.5 will read, as follows :

Silent Hunter IV Wolves of the Pacific: U-boat Missions

Or similarly worded, base gist of it..

If, it reads, as follows :

Silent Hunter IV Wolves of the Pacific

Then... ya got ahold of the v1.4 without U-boats... & just the U.S. sub aspect of it... only.

If ya got that... copy, it is... possible to inject in, the patch to bump it up to v1.5, but... iirc have seen others attempt to & run into issues with doing so.

Hope this info helps.

post edit:

if you already installed it... when it boots up in stock mode... it should read near the bottom... iirc... v1.4 or v1.5 depending on which copy you grabbed... from Amazon.

Myself... I very highly recommend, grabbing a copy from Steam... or Ubi themselves. Steam, has both 1.4 & 1.5 available... & UBi, has v1.5 repackaged as "Gold edition", just fancy wording for it being v1.5, in My opinion... that way, you avoid any confusion when looking at Amazon, ebay... or any other site like them... in wondering... did I grab the right copy version... or not.... syndrome.

Thanks for the Reply, M.M.!

Looks like its v 1.5, because it says " Wolves of the Pacific: U Boat Missions".

Awesome! Just wanted to make sure, as I'm using THEBERBSTER'S Beginner's Mega Mod and using the Submarine School missions in the Sim to familiarize myself with the Layout and Map Tools, and learning how to maneuver the Boat.

I'm sure I'll have a bunch more questions to ask, and greatly appreciate all of the Assistance
here. What an informative site this is!

on the Main Menu Screen look in the bottom right hand corner.
Good Luck, Herr Kaleun.
