Click on the x to close the game down and it will exit back o the Desktop. Now load the game from Ubisoft Connect it is quite possible that your game picture is showing an update button and for some reason could not do it from the SH5.exe  You can make 'Ubisoft Connect' a Shortcut on your Desktop or Pin it to the Taskbar

TDW's Option File Editor Viewer Installing It Correctly
Last updated 1st December 2018
This Tutorial is for installing TDW's Options File Editor Viewer (OFEV) anywhere on your system as a stand alone application only. If a complete uninstall is done the stand alone the OFEV application is unaffected by this. When the re-install is done just follow the instructions from Picture 10 to Picture 14. The OFEV is included in TDW's NewUI's 7-4-2 and 7-5-0 base mods. DO NOT INSTALL THIS STAND ALONE VERSION FOR: The Wolves of Steel (TWoS) Sobers Mega Mod Download Link to > TDW’s Options File Editor Viewer Version_v_1_0_32_0 The Basic way to make changes to the OFEV. 1. Disable the version of TDW’s NewUIs_TDC_7_4_2 or 7_5_0 ByTheDarkWraith Main Mod that you are using from JSGME. 1.1. Disable all TWOS mods in JSGME. 2. Make a New Folder and give it a name and place it in a convenient place that will be easier to find. 3. For the purpose of this Tutorial I will call the New Folder OFEV32. 4. Download the (OFEV) in to the OFEV32 Folder. (Picture 1) Picture 1  5. Open the Zip File. 6. You will see 2 Files. (Picture 2) Picture 2  7. Open the OptionsFileEditorViewer > Application with your mouse. 8. Click on the Extract All Box. (Picture 3) Picture 3  9.

(OFEV) > Application exe the Mickey Mouse Icon is now showing. (Picture 5) Picture 5  12. Open the Mickey Mouse .exe Application. 13. You will now get an Error Message. (Picture 6) 14. CFG file missing! Building cfg file! Please restart the App. (Picture 6) Picture 6  15. Click Ok. 16. You will now see the missing cfg file has been added. (Picture 7) Picture 7  17. Open the Mickey Mouse .exe Application. 18. Select your Language (Picture 8) 19. Double click on it to select it. (Picture 8) Picture 8  20. Open the File Tab. (Picture 9) Picture 9  21. Select Set path to menu.txt… (Picture 10) Picture 10  22. Typical looking path could be C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Mods\NewUis_TDC_7_5_0_ByTheDarkWraith\data\Menu (Picture 11) 23. Replace 7-5-0 with 7-4-2 if you are using a different version. 24. Click on Open. (Picture 11) Picture 11  25. Click on the File Tab again. (Picture 12) Picture 12  26. Select Set SH5 install path… (Picture 13) Picture 13  27. Typical looking path could be C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5 28.Highlight the Silent Hunter 5 Folder by clicking on it Once with your Mouse. (Picture 14) 29. Click on OK. (Picture 14) 30. You can see that the last 2 lines show that both paths have been set correctly. Picture 14  31. Click on the File Tab again.

(Picture 25) Picture 25  49. Open the First File Folder. 50. It is a good idea to change the Mickey Mouse .exe Application to Run as Administrator. 51.

If playing with Real Navigation some changes made True may still remain Disabled. Courtesy acknowledgement to TheDarkWraith TIP If you shade this Tutorial and then copy and paste it to aNotepad you can then edit it.

Deck Gun Crew Testing Using TDW's NewUI
Last updated 16th June 2017
No “Binoculars” were used in these tests. Icons are to be read from the right to left for numbering purposes. 1st Test using “Dieter Epp” Officer on the bridge 1. Give the order to officer on the bridge to > “M.T.D.G. (This will bring the Gun Crew on to the Deck) 2. Watch Officer > Icon 1 3. Battle Stations > Icon 5 4. Crew on Deck > Icon 10 5. M.T.D.G. > Icon 4 (This will already be yellowed) 6. Deck Gun > Icon 8 7. F.A.W. > Icon 9 8. Hold Fire > Icon 8 9. Battle Stations > Icon 5 (Will reposition the Deck Gun properly) 10. Give the order to officer on the bridge to > Secure The Deck Gun. Note 1: The “Battle Station” icon is essential before and after. Note 2: Before the Gun automatically fires there is a slight time delay which can be explained as “Time to receive the order to fire”. Note 3: Do not use F7 Battle Stations. Battle Stations must be from the “Watch Officer” 2nd Test only using the icons from the “Watch Officer” 1. Watch Officer > Icon 1 2. Battle Stations > Icon 5 3. Crew On Deck > Icon 10 4. M.T,D.G. > Icon 4 5. Deck Gun > Icon 8 6. F.A.W. > Icon 9 7. Hold Fire > Icon 8 8. Battle Stations > Icon 5 (This will secure the Deck Gun in the proper position) Notes 1 – 2 – 3 all apply to test 2 Note 4: There is no way to remove the “Deck Gun Crew” from the “Deck Gun” If the officer on the bridge is given the order to “M.T.D.G. and then the order “S.T.D.G. The “Deck Gun” will not be positioned correctly. The “Deck Gun Crew” will normally fire at the nearest target. When this is destroyed they will automatically reposition the “Deck Gun” and start firing at the next nearest target. The “binoculars can be locked on to select the target of your choice using the above instructions. It is not necessary for the “Binoculars to be looking at the target once firing has commenced. Courtesy acknowledgement to TheDarkWraith Tip If you shade this Tutorial and then copy and paste it to your PC Notepad you can then edit it.

(Before) You give the orders then either “Walk” or “Teleport” to the “Deck Gun”. 1. Watch Officer > Icon 1 2. Battle Stations > Icon 5 3. Crew On Deck > Icon 10 4. M.T.D.G. > Icon 4 (Or After) You now either “Walk” or “Teleport” to the “Deck Gun” Then give the above orders. When you get to the “Deck Gun” you will see a “Green Gun Sight”. (Depending on your “Game Play Settings). To “Traverse” the gun and “Elevate” it is all done by moving your mouse. There is an annoying glitch that causes you to lose your “Deck Gun Crew”. This happens when the U-boat is pitching up and down. You will notice this when you cannot move the “Deck gun” from side to side. To call the “Deck Gun Crew” back you need to do the following every time this happens. 1. Crew On Deck > Icon 10 2. M.T.D.G. > Icon 4 Leave your “Icons” showing so that you can see them. Any “Yellowed Icon” is active. The second way to fire the “Deck Gun. Click on the “Gun Sight” in the top left corner. This opens the “Standard Gun Sight”. Click on the “Gun Sight” again in the top left corner. This opens up the “High Power Gun Sight” Moving your mouse will move the “Deck Gun” from left to right (Traversing) Using your mouse wheel will raise and lower the “Deck Gun” (Trajectory) There are 3 types of “Ammunition” available. 1. A.P. > Armour Piercing. 2. H.E. > High Explosive. 3. A.A. > Anti Aircraft The amount of “Ammunition” available is shown under each shell. To select the shell type just click on it with your mouse. 1. Place the “Deck Gun Sight Crosshairs” on the target. 2. Adjust the “Elevation” 3. Press the “Space Bar” to “Fire” You will see in the “Message Box” “Gun Loading” If you look at the “Shell” you will see it filling up. You can keep pressing the “Space Bar” down and still move your mouse. The next “Shell” will then “Fire” immediately when the “Deck Gun” has loaded. You will need to learn when to “Fire” so as to take in to account the rise and fall of the u-boat. I would suggest that you test your “Gun Practicing” by going to “Historical Missions” and selecting “Bullet Spark Test” and select “Start”. This will give you 2 Merchants to practice your shooting on. When you have finished “Firing” altogether click on the “Red X” in the “Top Right Corner” You can either “Walk” or “Teleport” back to the “Bridge” To finish 1. Watch Officer > Icon 1 2. Battle Stations > Icon 5 (Yellowed) Using the “Officer on the Bridge” “Dieter Epp” will mess with the “Deck Gun” being placed correctly when you give him the order “Secure The Deck Gun” Courtesy acknowledgement to TheDarkWraith Tip If you shade this Tutorial and then copy and paste it to your PC Notepad you can then edit it.

Replacing Steam With A Dvd
Last updated 25th January 2018
Steam needs "Evaporating" get the Dvd if you can or otherwise consider a download version which will be cheaper. With a dvd you actually own it and it is easier to re-install. Before loading the Dvd. Make sure that you leave no trace of Steam on your system. Use a registry cleaner like "Ccleaner" and restart your system afterwards. Go to your start button and use search and check again for any left over SH5. If you find anything delete it and run the registry cleaner again. If you already have a Uplay account play it safe and set up a new one for your new Silent Hunter 5 installation. This will come up at the end of the installation. If you want to play the game with the 'German Voices' then choose the 'Custom' install. After the install go to the following folders. In the path Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Data\Support\GameUpdater There is a "GU" exe application that will update your game to v1.2 Tip If you shade this information and then copy and paste it to your PC Notepad you can then edit it.
