Sober I am not sure this is the right place to discuss this but I am using your mep file and mods dated 1701 27052013 and using Sjizzles charts for newui dated 27.05.2013 v2. for some reason I dont have sjizzles name in the user charts drop down therefore I dont have the pic showing AOB which I wanted to try out. This pic was in the earlier version of Sjizzles charts.
Any idea mate?

Grrr
 
Same problem. Even after sorting out Uplay userid and password change, the game will not load. So I unloaded all mods and have uninstalled the game.

I will try from scratch again.

I found out today that SH5 is discontinued and not even listed on Ubisoft support game listing. I sent them a message but the drop down topic did not list the game. I had to use SH3 in the list and then...no reply yet.

I've spent SO much time on this game, don't want to lose it now.

May 31 update: No luck. They are telling me my key is already activated by another. (me) So, having tried all possible, I bid you all a fond fairwell. I do not intend mucking about with it further. Next time they update, it all my go to pot again. Good luck to all. I go back to SH4, which is still playable and enjoyable.

If I ever see SH5 on sale somewhere, I'll buy it. It is still worth playing.

I have the same problem Raymond.

Had to do a password reset to get logged in and now it asks for my activation code, which it promptly rejects.

I have a support ticket in and noticed under products they list SH2 and SH3 but not SH5.


Weird

I pointed this out some time ago. That shows you just how ashamed they are of it :yep: Kinda like don't list it and people will forget about it.

Wouldn't that suggest they are proud of SH2?? :o

Hi everyone, I'm having the same problem. When uplay starts it asks me for my password, which I had to change 3 times before it would even let me sign in and now it is asking me to enter my activation code, then I am told it has already been used " YES BY ME" so I cant even get the game to start.:/\\!! :/\\!!

Mikemike47 06-05-13 12:21 PM

All because of this new Uplay update.

I went through same frustration between an old and new email account, username, password and reactivation issue. Took 3 times from UBI and Uplay telephone technical help to finally get it right by fixing my account properly.:rotfl2::/\\!!

Uplay ALWAYS updated perfectly before this last update. Never had a login issue until the recent update.

Gunfighter 06-06-13 01:17 PM

UBI
 
Yep had same problems OK now. Somebody remind me NOT to buy a UBI game again:/\\!!

uplay help #
 
919 460-9778 Past few weeks they helped me with redownloading the game
and some other issues. Obviously the game has to be purchased from them to get support.

I wish to thank Uplay for finally convincing me to retire from the Silent Hunter series with their latest update. 41 minutes from the time i hit the uplay icon to the time i actually returned to my current mission has convinced me that 12 years and 4 editions of the game is enough. I shall head to the golf course and wish you gents the best of luck dealing with a company that has steadily gotten worse thru the years.

I still can't get it to work. I uninstalled, reinstalled, updated, lost all my custom tweaking and mods, re tweaked put mods back, nothing will let me play long enough to get to the dock.

As soon as it starts it logs out and then has the freaking nerve to tell me "Thanks For Playing."

I can't for my life get this to work any more. I've tried everything in this thread, but the launcher just stops working when I press play :down:
I'm downloading SH3 now, people say that it is the better SH game, but I would really like help with SH5. Hel me Subsim! :subsim:

Hi EA,

Go to your Control Panel and uninstall your existing ‘Game Launcher.’

It is also adviseable to delete the Game Launcher folder as well.

This can usually be found in your program x86 folder and then inside your Ubisoft folder.

This is the download link in SJFERGY18 post and can be trusted.

Just follow the easy set up.

After installing it will update the Game Launcher automatically and then take you to Uplay where you can put in your existing login and password.

All right, now Uplay works. Thank you!
Now I have problems with the Wolves of Steel mod... the game insta CTD's whenever i start a mission, and Uplay thanks me for playing 2 minutes. Thanks for the thanks Uplay! Iz bestest game launcher.
Maybe I'll try to reinstall the mods...

THEBERBSTER 11-23-14 04:21 PM

At least we got one the main problem fixed.

Maki4444 11-29-14 05:41 AM

My Uplay was crashing yesterday(what a useless system btw) I tried reinstalling it and it didn't work. But after a PC restart and opening the game as "Administrator" everything worked fine.

Sandman_28054 12-26-14 09:58 PM

My problem is a little different.

Lighting ran in on my monitor two or three months ago.

Just bought a new one today.

So I haven't been able to use my computer at all.

New monitor. Keyed up SH5, uplay started, and patched to the latest version, I assume.

Game started no problem.

However, when I launch a game, when I go to the chief in port, I cannot hear him speak (upgrades, torps, etc). Same with the other officer. And when I start looking for mission orders, I can't hear the standard message.

Otherwise the game plays same as before.

Sandman_28054 12-26-14 10:53 PM

nm, problem solved.
