Anyone?

Ahoy

First I'd suggest you run the program gu.exe. You find it in this folder;

C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Support\GameUpdater\gu.exe

This will automatically patch you to v1.2

Then try to launch SH5 again

Thank you, friend.

It seems, however, that I've found a solution somewhere else in this forum.

I uninstalled one of my many "visual c++ 2008 redistributable" versions. Perhaps it was the one mentioned in my crash report (where it said: Fault Module Version: 9.0.30729.4974), I am uncertain, as I didn't think to look before I uninstalled one of them, which solved it!


Tack för svaret, hursomhelst.

Hello and sorry if below problem has already been mentioned or discussed, 75 pages of bug-reports is alot of reading...

The flipping-pages sound gets stuck once it sounds and keeps playing over and over again.
It's the background-sound inside your sub, when someone (navigator??) is flipping pages of some kind.

I think that silent hunter 5 can be the best sim simulator ever when modded

Please explain a little;

What do you mean by 'pressing ok'? Where?
Are you patched to 1.2?
What mods are you running?
In which order are they activated?

[voxosoxo]

thanks for reply Steel....have 1.2 yes running mods..seems that was the problem i took them off and now the game runs..i was getting a freeze up at menu OK wouldnt work when it saved changes....i saw a post saying run the mods 1 at a time and see if you can catch the culprit.............ill do that...

[voxosoxo]

Hello, I'm getting this too on SH5 1.2 running in Win 7 Pro 32 with all updates to date. It didn't happen before, only after a recent OS reinstall. Do you also experience a sudden exit to desktop? (no crash, just closing without warning and going back to the Ubi app). Could the later be a secondary effect of the DRM system? Though I thought they removed the constant check and my connection is pretty stable.
