JSGME (Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler)

I added this post to this thread after seeing another possibility of why CTDs or slower game loading happens in general.

Disable all your mods. Go to your Silent hunter 5 root folder. Delete all your Page******_Draggables.TDW files manually. The game will recreate them when you start another game.

1) Go to your Silent hunter 5 root folder. Delete all your TDW***.dll files manually.
2) Go to your Silent hunter 5\data\Scripts\Menu folder. Delete all the ****.py files that are newer than May 2010. Most **.py files are from Multiple UIs for SH5 with TDC. One **.py file is Page CampaignSelection.py from Open Horizons II.

One or more of these suggestions may fix CTD issues or speed up game loading.

Leave your mods enabled. Go to your Silent hunter 5 root folder. Delete all your Page******_Draggables.TDW files manually. The game will recreate them when you start another game. (IIRC, can someone else reconfirm this point and let me know. I do not want to give wrong advice.)

Disable all your mods.
1) Go to your Silent hunter 5 root folder. Delete all your TDW***.dll files manually.
2) Go to your Silent hunter 5\data\Scripts\Menu folder. Delete all the ****.py files that are newer than February 2010. Most **.py files are from Multiple UIs for SH5 with TDC. One **.py file is Page CampaignSelection.py from Open Horizons II.

I guess I keep those since I have SH5 1.2 and follow this rule:

You should do nothing with the files that are older than May 2010. Leave them as they are. That means they are the stock version 1.2 files, or versions not changed by patch 1.2. It is the newer than May 2010 files we are concerned about for you.

If we find nothing wrong with files newer than May 2010, then we can look elsewhere.

Or do I need to delete those highlighted because that folder is different? I am a little confused.

Thanks for catching my oversight. Sorry for confusion. **py files from May 2010 or newer to be deleted. Post #8 date corrected.

Now since I used the TDW Generic Patcher, will there be stuff it has around that I should watch out for and not delete? Or isn't that a problem.

This is not JSGME related question at all.

Best places to look is TDW Generic Patcher thread. Snapshots (for what to watch out for or not delete) will give you a clues where to start. Look for snapshot information somewhere on Sjizzle's how to use patcher thread. Some other captains may have talked about this somewhere within the [inf] sobers mega mod.
