Beginners Mod List For SH4 Including Download Links

Hi Peter,
I think you should provide the additional 3000m bearing tool mod instead of your 3000 yard bearing tool mod for those who use metrics instead of imperials…
I didn’t even know they were existing

Of course, the one for the right resolution…

Hello Peter.

I tried to install this wonderful mega mod you compiled on my computer but it keeps trying to find nonexistent files within the mod files everytime I start the game. I had successfully installed it on a different computer just fine, but it refuses to work on my own laptop. At first, I thought it was a missing file in my stock game but a clean reinstall did not sort out the issue. The game keeps saying files are missing such as 'data/menu/data/black80.tga' and 'data/menu/skins/american/gui/intelligenceunits/paper.dds. Are you familiar with either of these files?

Hi M
Sounds more like a corrupted install with all those missing files.
Do you have the option to copy the game from the computer to your laptop?

Which version of the game do you have Maphisto86? If you got the game from Steam, it might be v1.3. The mod needs v1.5, which has Uboats in it.

Hi M
Silent Hunter should not be installed in the Programs Files (x86) directory as it has restrictions.

Downloaded my mega mod and installed on a pristine SH4 copy.
Installed LAA,
Installed JSGME and Mods.

SH4.exe as administrator.
Installed MultiSH4,

Game loaded no problems.

I have the v1.5 copy; the "Gold" edition.

I will try to use MultiSH4 and see if it works. The game loads just fine on Vanilla but not with any of the mods activated. Strange since I did the same thing for the other family desktop and it ran fine with mods installed.

EDIT: Sept 17 2018

A new install appeared to fix things. Something must have happened during my previous install to muck up the files. Thanks for your suggestions THEBERBSTER and propbeanie.
