Icon14 MOD REQUEST

Hi Guys! Listen I wish to request a MOST NEEDED mod lads! The "Automatic" torpedo firing system in this game lads is utterly USLESS! If you hit 1/4 you are doing very well ! You fellas' out there have god the knack. PLEAS! PLEASE! help out here! Many like me want to just use the auto and rely on at least a decent chance of getting a hit here! I am willing to denote some cash if it will help grease the wheels here fellas!

That shouldn't be happening ...
Is your game installed in "C:\Program Files (x86)" system folder?

Hi CD
All 32 bit programs like the SH versions will want to default automatically to the Program File (x86) Directory.
Unlike installing your game in a folder this directory has restrictions so where possible it should not be installed to.
A common installation often used would look like this C:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5

Default OK DOKEY!

I have done as advised here shipmates and I post here my initial mod installation list for advice if any my good friends.






I installed ALL these files last time, with the exception of the one with question marks!

Hi Captain
Any reason why you are installing an old TWOS version?
Latest version is 2.0.0 + update 2.0.1
