TUNNGLE! That's it! Now I remember it. That's what we used. I forgot it but you reminded me! Thank you. I should be up and running tomorrow and I will buy it from amazon now.

One of maybe a few more questions. Where should I install the game to? Some say don't use the default directory if you want to use mods or it will screw up the game and jsgme mod enabler. Where should I install SH4 and the mod enabler too?

Anywhere outside of the usual Program Files folder.
Whilst I'm here, you might want to also consider SH3, fantastic game, amazing mods.

C:\Games\SH4
Doesn't have to be on the root drive (same as OS), it could be on a secondary hard drive in which case just change the C: for whatever the relevant letter would be.

so for example,
This PC > Desktop > Silent Hunter- Wolves Of The Pacific - Gold Edition (Download) thats a ok path? That's the path it's giving me stock from amazon. |

No, I wouldn't actually install a program to the desktop, only use it as a temporary holding location.
When you start the install it should (I say should, I installed SH4 several years ago and removed it soon after so I can't remember) ask for a location to install, just create a new folder on C: and call it whatever you want.

Oh, and make sure it is a designated drive, not under 'This PC'.

Just to clarify, I have the steam version of SH4, I didn't have to go through any extra steps to get mods working, I literally did exactly the same method as I did for my DVD version of SH3 (Three). However, you have to get the "U-boat" add-on to patch it to V1.5. Otherwise it is V1.3, the V1.4 patch just will not "take" on the Steam version. Of course, this may be the "extra steps" Delanski mentioned. I don't really like Steam, in fact I dislike all "on-line activation" garbage, however... If I must use an online activation "service", at least I can go off-line (for a year, when I got Fallout: New Vegas!) and not need to "check-in" every time I start the game. Barracuda |

I bought the amazon gold one. It sent me a activation code but the ubisoft registry is down. So I guess I can't do anything to register my game. But so far so good I guess. It hasn't asked me for a code for anything yet.
