-   -   U-Boat 1.2 not installing?? (https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=128908)

I currently just have U-Boat1.2 for GWX 2.0 installed.

I dont have SH3 Commander installed.

Whats your thinking mate??

exponent8246 01-13-08 04:21 PM

Do you think I should go for a clean install??

I still have the SH3 - 1.4b patch and the GWX 2.0 files so it shouldnt be so painful to re-install:hmm:

I can transfer all my other mod downloads to a safe folder and away I go!!

What do ya think??

Wouldn't worry, it'll be something simple I, you and the rest of the World are overlooking.
I would recommend also enabling the Tools & Dials Mod then give it a try but does the Game load or do you get a CTD ?

exponent8246 01-13-08 04:27 PM

I have just tried the tools and dials mod aswell as uboat 1.2. No joy:down:

I dont get a CTD and never have with this game.

The game loads completely just without the mod.

I might re-install.

What screen do you get by the way?? The initial menu screen that is.

The Munster 01-13-08 04:39 PM

What intro screen do you get (that's the one at the start with the status bar loading at the bottom). Can you describe it to me ?

exponent8246 01-13-08 04:45 PM

I get a screen saying " The grey wolves expansion 2.0" in the top left-hand corner and an image of the bow of a uboat firing a single torpedo. There is the faint picture of a wolf's head in the background.

Does that help at all?:hmm:

The Munster 01-13-08 04:53 PM

Yeah it does, it looks like U-Boat 1.2 hasn't been enabled as it has a different loading screen. Back to the drawing board but real life beckons for me, I'm up before the birds every morning so must hit the sack zzzz
Anyone else with any ideas on this, feel free to jump in and help this guy out so to try and avoid a complete re-installation ?!

exponent8246 01-13-08 04:55 PM

Well i'm hitting the sack too. Work in the morning!:down: :down:

Hope we have some answers when I get home from work tomorrow!!

Dude ...

Are ya positive ya have the U-Boat 1.2 For GWX 2.0 (IO) and not the folder labeled U-Boat1.2 for GWX 2.0 :hmm:

Hi all

I know misery loves company so I wanted let exponent8246 that I'm experiencing the same problem. I've downloaded (using winrar) the file from JCWolf's site (again thanks for your help), opened the folder called U-Boat for GWX 2.0 and there are four separate sub-folders called U-Boat 1.2 for GWX 2.0 (IO), Optional Mods, Documentation, and the pdf U-Boat 1.2 manual. I added the U-Boat 1.2 for GWX 2.0 (IO) to the MODS folders under Program Files/ubisoft/silenthunter111/. The U-Boat mod (labeled properly as U-Boat for GWX 2.0 (IO), shows up on the JSMGE enabler, I flip it over to the activate side, and nothing happens.

Any suggestions are welcome!

cheers, astroglobe :arrgh!:

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!

Here is where I went wrong. . .

I created a folder in the MODS folder called U-Boat 1.2, I then placed the U-Boat for GWX 2.0 (IO) folder within the U-Boat 1.2 folder.

I have now realised that you have to just put the original "U-Boat for GWX 2.0 (IO)" folder in the MODS folder.

I only created a folder because the amount of mods I have downloaded are getting rather large so I wanted a way of making it easier for myself when it comes to enabling a mod.

I'm really sorry for wasting everybody's time and effort!!!:oops:

Do I get a prize for stupidity or what!!!:hmm: :rotfl:

Sorry guys. ( I cant wait to get stuck in now)!!

P.S - anybody have any suggestions as to what additional mods to include??
I love realistic sounds and visuals etc.

JCWolf 01-14-08 01:26 PM
