So many periods. :hmmm:

If you aren't having and problems or CTDs, why are you trying to figure out what's wrong?

Just posted that in another thread. I started with the Steam Version of SH5 just 3 weeks ago and encountered random CTD's after starting to use mods.
Mine were all related to concurrent C++2008 Redistributable installs. After deinstalling x86 Versions and only keeping 9.0.30729.6161 I didn't encounter a single CTD anymore.

Installing JGSM into your folder steam/steamapps/common/silent hunter 5/ is the right location

and now iam....sh5 vanishes to be replaced with a uplay window, claiming to be a end game credits report....

so after the past few weeks its decided to start, crashing to the uplay window....triumph....forewarned is forearmed....i think?..triumph..

Ahh. Every once and a while I get a CTD while loading, but I'm fairly sure it happens when I click off it to something else since it takes so long. :)
