So it seems Silent hunter 4 actually costs more since I would have to buy the uboat mission expansion to play the german side....

Now I remember why I never bought these games

Yes, I have the same experience with 1.06. I didn't have one single crash yet!

Regarding the Steam Conversion problem on my tutorial.
I was not aware of a problem since the original problems were updated by the Subsim community.
I am only the messenger here not my work.

There is another way round this problem which I have seen mentioned regarding STEAM not just for SH5 but also works for other SH versions.
XP virtual machine

When Googling XP virtual machine you can select it for your Windows version.

All a bit technical for me.

Wait, you mean the virtual machine got around the problem with cabinet file viewer? I thought that was for something else.
If that is the case I would be willing to try that.

Hi Silamon
Send a PM to kiinteistoesijoitus and ask him how it works.
I have seen other post regarding this STEAM workaround used on other SH versions.

Default It would have been awesome

If this line was higher in the install directions: Steam version doesn't support generic patcher and therefore this expansion too

LoL, it seems that someone is pissed off again . Here on Subsim it's common knowledge that if you want to play SH5, you don't buy it trough Steam...

I could emphasize more Steam warning though...

I don't think it would hurt to mention that at the start of the guide and not 6 steps into the installation

I had no idea that getting it through steam was so bad, working on getting a vm going to see if I can patch it that way, if not no worries I guess.

Out of curiosity, where else do you buy it? Would the amazon downloads work? I didn't see the game on Ubisoft's store page or I would have gotten it there.

Amazon is fine...Only Steam version has protected executable...

In that case I think I will just refund it on steam and get it on amazon.

Costs a bit more but... seems like it would save me a whole lot of trouble.

Default FaT 1 Torpedo TDC setting

Could someone familiar with using the T1 FaT 1 ladder pattern running torpedo please tell me the function of each of the extra dials and how they relate
to setting the various legs of the pattern? Tried various searches but there is very little relevant info on the subject regarding SH5.

EDIT: Ahhh...found some info in the SH3 forum. http://subsim.com/radioroom/showpost...05&postcount=2

If you enable appropriate TAI/Nav map options via OFEV (Torpedo Solution Line), you should be able to observe in game predicted torpedo path . Don't forget to also disable real nav of course...
