Default Need help with new installation please.

I made a mistake and posted in the general SH3 forum so I am reposting here after being told this is the correct place for this subject. My computer quit on me so I bought a new computer and it has windows 10 like my old one did. I had zero troubles loading the game and lots of mods on the old one, with this one I am having trouble just getting the game installed. I went through the tutorials step by step and here is my problem. On Post #5 of the tutorials I have named my folder SilentHunterIII. In your picture of your SHIII folder you show subfolders of data, documentation and support. My SilentHunterIII folder has none of those sub folders. But I choose my SilentHunterIII folder and click "ok", this is at picture 5 in the installation tutorial. Immediately I get an this error message

You have selected this path
D:\SilentHunterIII\
No valid SH3.EXE found in this folder.

Can someone please guide me to where I am making my mistake.
I have tried using the free download manager to speed things up and then move SH3 to my folder, and I have tried downloading straight to my folder. Neither way makes any difference, I always get this same error message at this stage of the installation. I'm at a loss as to where my SH3.EXE is located.
I forgot to add that I am downloading the game from LSH3 2015 and have tried both the full and the split downloads.

Hi PS
It sounds like your game installation is not patched to the latest version.
Hover your mouse over the the SH3.exe in the main game folder.
It should show File version: 1.4.0.1
See LSH3-2015 Tutorial 3 picture 8.

Peter, thank you for assisting! I don't have anything that looks like what the picture 8 in tutorial 3 looks like. I originally have the entire download that gives no info when hovered over. And after I double click the download it extracts into the German and English pdf's and 3 application files that give versions when hovered over. I will describe each one and you can tell me if this helps any. They are:
Name, Size and Version
LSH3-EDITION-2015-FULL 7,702,347kb 9.22.0.0
LSH3-EDITION-2015-STARTER 1,216kb 1.0.0.39
LSH3-EDITION-2015-STARTER-FULL 1,729,240kb 1.5.0.2712

I would assume the starter-full is the one you mean but I'm not going to leave anything to guess. Please look at these and tell me what you would do next. Thank you!

Ken

Hi PS
You can check which game version you have immediately after installing SHIII.


It is also important to remember that the LSH3-2015 zip file should be downloaded into a new folder so it can be installed correctly.
It is also important to check the file byte numbers to make sure there are no missing files or corruptions caused when downloading.

At the moment I think you have missed or possibly over looked a procedure or missed something along the way?
It may be worth while going back over the tutorials to recheck nothing has been missed.
You downloaded the 1 file single download is that correct?
If you cannot resolve this then I suggest that you send me a PM and we will sort it out together as I can respond to PM's quickly.

I can't get this to work with the Uplay version of SH3. I've made the folder named to SH3LSH15 and it's located in G:\Ubisoft\SH3LSH15

On running the LSH15 installer it tells me "No valid SH3.EXE found!"

I've followed every tutorial I can find but haven't had any luck.

LSH3 Installation with Uplay, Amazon and Steam

1. Create a new folder. Example: G:\Games.

2. Search the original SH3 Game. Normally you can find it in a subfolder of Uplay, Amazon or Steam. The SH3 original game folder is usually "Silent Hunter 3" (or "Silent Hunter III", depending on the provider). In this folder must be a file called sh3.exe.

3. Copy the complete folder into G:\Games. The SH3-copy is then under G:\Game\Silent Hunter 3 or Silent Hunter III.

4. Remove the spaces in the folder name "Silent Hunter 3" or "Silent Hunter III". The location is then G:\Game\SilentHunter3 or SilentHunterIII.

5. Now you can install LSH3 Edition 2015.

This is a translation of Urmels german manual. You can found it here https://www.designmodproject.de/foru...e-spielversion

You are probably correct about me missing something somewhere. I will begin again with a completely fresh start and pay close attention to things. I will pm you with my results, be they positive or not. Thank you very much for your patience and help. I do appreciate it.

Hi zuff
Check that all your "applications" are set to run as administrators.
Check out my LSH3-2015 Tutorials in my signature.
I think you are missing something, the pictures will show you if you have made an error installing.
