Silent Hunter 4 & Windows 10

KaleunMarco · 09-28-19, 08:21 AM

hello,

just upgraded my Dell XPS8700 to 32 GB ram and Win10.
system runs just fine but not so for SH4-UBM CDROM.
first off, let me say that everything ran fine under Win7 with 4GB.
Next, MultiSH4 no longer runs properly:

i've checked its compatibility mode and run it under XP-SP2, Vista-SP2, Win7 and i get the same results.
AND...SH3 is not running (nor SH4) and MultiSH4 that was launched was located in the C:\Ubisoft\SilentHunter4 folder. Strange results, eh?

secondly, some of you are aware that i can no longer load a Savegave. i've been pursuing this issue with a smaller group here at Subsim

but when i ran into the MultiSH4 thing today i thought i would add is to the post. the mod list does not matter: RFB, OpM, whatever. Create a boat, run a mission, save the game, can't reload the save (CTD).
i've followed Berbster's Win10 Compatibility instructions and my system is there.
my vid card is a GeForce 5200. drivers are up-to-date.
so, it would seem that something else is amiss. i just need a hint.
any thoughts?
