Thanks exxis, worked like a charm!

Default Returned from the Deep

G'dayHunters.
I have just managed to get SH5 up and running on Win 10 after an absence of 5 years. SH5 looks great on my 34in widescreen monitor.
Now to start with modding. Just downloaded the JSGME mod installer.
Where do you recommend I go from here?

I also have original boxed versions of SH3&4, i may have to try and get them running under Win 10 also.

Use this advice and also start the game in administrator mode. Clean install of Windows 10 and clean install of silent hunter 4 and 5. SH5 crashed. But the advise of exxis AND adminstrator mode: It works great.

Thanks exxis

So I recently purchased SH5, loved SH3 and enjoyed SH4 but wandered away for a few years and recently watched Das Boot and got inspired again

So the game is acting strange, and i don't know why this is happening.

So if I start UPLAY with online enabled, and then launch SH5 it won't start. I get "Unabled to download Uplay files" which i don't understand? Is SH5 trying to update itself, is it trying to synchronise with some server at ubisoft for saved games or DRM? So i disabled the online synchronization option in Uplay settings, but still no luck..

If I start UPLAY with online disabled, and then launch SH5 it does start. BUT I can only play the historical missions and look in the museum, the campaign will not start. I get the error "Internet Connection not enabled" - which it is not...

So I have uninstalled SH5 and reinstalled it, I have uninstalled Uplay and reinstalled it. I have verified the game files through Uplay, I have launched both as admins, I have check the win 10 compatibility and all looks good..

Anybody have any idea what the error "Unabled to download Uplay files" means and how can I fix it?

Thanks
CJC

compatibility tab? I have no such tab under my SH5.exe properties tab.
Tabs I see are: General, Sharing, Security, Pervious Versions, Customize.

not too computer smart....but am I missing something?

Well I so how figured out how to get compatibility mode (and the tab magically appears now).




having said that....when i did get the game to launch....it's incredibility choppy and there is no sound. I went below decks and hit F to go to periscope depth and the game immediately crashed.

Should I do the clean install thing again? I just hate doing this every time something changes.....is there anyway to do this without losing a career?
