Default Steam and Mods - need help

Hi guys!

I installed the generic mod enabbler to:

Programm Filesx86/Steam/steamapps/common/silent hunter5

it also create a mod folder there when it installs...

I enabled the mods but they do not show up in game (like the sh3 helms and the flags....

Can I do a SH install with steam outside on another hd? I know install in C:Programms can course mess in Win7 with acsess-rights...

Any ideas?

Good to know. I was about to tell you to turn UAC off, but what you did is probably better.

Default Steam & Mods

After multiple tries to get mods working with them installed into the steam game folder, I found a simple solution. It may only be true with Win 7, but here is what I found.

Two copies of the game files were installed. One was under steam/steamapps/common/Silent Hunter 5

and

another copy was in the games folder of Ubisoft Game Launcher! That is
C:\Program Files(x86)/Ubisoft/Ubisoft Game Launcher/games/Silent Hunter 5

As soon as I put my mods folder and mods manager (JGSME) into that folder, all my mods worked fine.

Hope it helps someone else.

Hi raymond
One installation is the actual game files, the other installation is the Ubisoft game launcher to connect to Uplay.
